Abstract
On the one hand, the integrity of political system calls for its division into diversity of elements, on the one hand; and it attributes its elements to identical spiritual environment and basic features of social system, on the other. This forms an indispensable precondition for elements’ complementariness and integrity. Integrity and completeness of system, its sovereignty is dependent upon correct subordination and balance of its elements. For this reason, changes of borders, measurements and functions of elements may be construed as process directed to changing system’s idea and goals. Subordination between intra-system elements within the framework of vertical elements is conducive to regulating these relations, while the problem of balance lies, to greater degree, in the elements of horizontal relations. Its protection is aimed at ensuring democratization. Activity, sovereignty and effectiveness of system as organism are dependent upon logic, completeness, accuracy and harmony of horizontal and vertical relations. Vertical relations within political system call for an appropriate force behind an element at superior position; for an appropriate force behind an element at inferior position. Internal vertical and horizontal relations of sub-system within political system are reflective of norms and principles within general structure of political system. Acting as energetic subject of social system, political subject contributes to the creation of legal and economic systems; formation of cultural system. Political system seeks to uncover possible pressures arising from sub-systems of social system it embraces, to render them harmless. Like sub-system of regional system, political system is exposed to direct and indirect pressures (by means of economic, legal and cultural systems). Correlation between counter-pressures and pressures upon regional system is accounted for by correlation between specific weight of political system and that of regional system.
