Consciousness as a Prerequisite for Law and the Law as Prerequisite for the Free Will

The present study expresses the thesis that there is a direct connection between the development of the consciousness of individuals in a society, the occurrence of law, and the formation of free will. First of all, the text distinguishes between consciousness in the broad sense and consciousness in the narrow sense. Also, the text represents the different degrees of awareness, which will answer the question at what level of their development human individuals reach the ability to coexist in a legal society. Subsequently, the thesis will be defended that in such a legal society the necessary prerequisites for the formation of free will in the individual subject are created.
