In the article the author argues that criminal legal awareness is an element of public legal consciousness, which is a set of legal views and feelings, legal ideals, ideas, theories, concepts that are normative in nature and include both knowledge of criminal law phenomena and assessment them in terms of social justice, as well as new legal requirements for improving criminal law regulation and criminal law protection of public relations of goods and interests, the practice of their application that reflect economic and political needs and interests of social development. The formation of criminal law legal consciousness is a complex and ambiguous process that takes place under the influence of many factors - socio-economic, socio­political, psychological and others.

The article argues that the national criminal law mentality is a holistic system of mental, emotional, cultural characteristics, values and attitudes of the people, which reflects the assessment of criminal law as a system of regulation and protection of critical social relations, benefits and interests and practices of its application that takes place on the basis of historical dimension and formed on the basis of this general requirements for legislative and law enforcement processes.

This article points out and addresses problematic issues related to the nature of the legal culture, legal worldview, and legal awareness of legal entities. Within the framework of the philosophical-legal and cultural discourse, the authors of the study reveal the existing “semantic layers” regarding the essence of legal culture, its structure and manifestations, as well as the determining influence on the content of the legal world outlook, methods (forms) and results of dissemination of legal information. The article involves theoretical and methodological aspects of studying the national legal culture and legal consciousness, developed by various representatives of the Russian classical legal and philosophical-legal schools (I.A.

This article addresses the question of gender disparity and legal awareness in Assam, and attempts to contextualise 'legal awareness' among women in the state within a complex framework of the post-colonial legal structure. This is a legacy of the traditional pre-colonial and colonial legal structures, and is reinforced through various social, economic and political forces. Such an approach would enable the understanding of the historical development of legal awareness as such, from tradition to change and its continuity, and also to explore whether there were spaces for women's legal awareness within the traditional constrained sphere of a dominant patriarchal society.

There is a true need for establishing a new legal profession: professional legal acts writer. Writing laws and other legal documents isn't that easy to do, especially when it comes to writing general rules of behavior. Those general norms must be so general, to be applicable in any similar future situations, and yet, although very abstract in their content, must be comprehensible to any ordinary man, without any legal knowledge. Law is directed towards ordinary people, and they must understand fully what they are required to do. In this paper we will explain why the professional legal acts' writer must be recognized as the new legal profession and why those people must have some special knowledge and skills, such as:– general and specific legal knowledge in area in which they are working,– good knowledge of the mother tongue, grammar rules and stylistic expression, as wellas the same level of knowledge of at least one other world language (a lot of laws aredealing with legal transplants from other legal systems, it's good to know stylisticdifferences between those two languages),– cultural and historical background of the state in which the law is written ,– have certain level of understanding political circumstances, etc.The author is pleading for this new legal profession, as the result of her 15 years long experience in this area of writing legal acts. The paper presents her personal recommendations and the improvement of this legal work.

The goal of this study is to measure the cyber security awareness of medical professionals in Poland, i.e. to verify whether healthcare specialists have knowledge and understanding of basic cyber security threats. This survey was based on the cyber security recommendations from the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The survey consisted of 23 single and multiple-choice questions divided into four parts. The results categorized the respondents and measured the level of cyber security awareness. Among the 620 persons invited to participate in the survey, 300 (48.39%) responded and answered all of the questions. The results show a an unsatisfactory level of knowledge regarding information security in Poland. The main conclusion drawn from the survey is that the quality of cyber security training among medical professionals should be improved and frequency of the trainings should be increased.

The built-environment is a major consumer of non-renewable resources, producer of substantial waste, and a formidable polluter of air and water. The limited supply of natural resources is causing increased prices, depletion of the reserves, and destruction of natural environment. Building sector in Nigeria consumes 60% of the total energy utilization in the country and the resources are not efficiently utilized. The goal of the study was to examine the perception of building owners and built environment professionals (architects, engineers and facility managers) regarding awareness of sustainable development issues, policies and constraints to sustainable development. The sample consisted of 80 respondents randomly selected building owners, architects, engineers and facility managers in Abuja, Nigeria. Descriptive statistics was used to analyze the data. Findings revealed that majority of those surveyed are aware of and highly involved in sustainable development efforts. The study also revealed that governmental implementation of environmental laws and government policies are not successful. Inferences were made to improve awareness education through creation of guideline for improving awareness, advocacy and enlightenment programmes, and by empowering regulatory agencies to enforce and strengthen existing regulations.

Legal intermediation is an emerging theoretical concept developed to graspthe importance of the process and actors who contribute to legalendogenization, in particular in the field of economic activities and workgoverned by various public regulations. This chapter proposes to extend theanalytical category of legal intermediary to all actors who, even if they arenot legal professionals, deal on a daily basis with legal categories andprovisions. In order to deepen our understanding of these actors and theircontribution to how organizations frame legality, this chapter investigatesfour examples of legal intermediaries who are not legal professionals. Basedon field surveys conducted over the past 15 years in France on employmentpolicy, industrial relations, occupational health and safety regulation, andforensic economics, I make three contributions. First, the cases show thediversity of legal intermediaries and their growing and increasingly reflexiveroles in our complex economies. Second, while they are not legal professionalsper se, to different degrees, these legal intermediaries assume roles similar tothose of legal professionals such as legislators, judges, lawyers, inspectors,cops, and even clerks. Finally, depending on their level of legitimacy andpower, I show how legal intermediaries take part in the process of legalendogenization and how they more broadly frame ordinary legality.

Legal awareness affects the behavior of people with the rule of law, along with them, and sometimes in spite of them. For example, we can talk about the regulatory impact on social relations legal awareness, if there is a gap of law or the law itself allows manual mailing standards legal awareness in resolving certain issues. Productive role legal awareness is particularly great in the process of legislative activity. In the course of enforcement this activity is optional (along with the law and with it) factor assessment of the facts and decisions of a legal case.
