Integrated state unions and legislative unification
Solving homogeneous problems utilizing similar legal methods contributes to the development of model rulemaking. As a means of legislative unification and harmonization, model norms are of particular interest. The functional purpose of the model rules and their role in the development of integration processes are considered. Model laws of the CIS Interparlamentary Assembly are international, particularly European, legal standards adapted to the conditions of the Commonwealth. After their adoption in the Interparliamentary Assembly, the model laws are proposed to the Commonwealth as a model for local legislation. Creating landmark standards, which are the model norms, raises many new problems for the experts, one of them is the analysis of domestic legislation in a transitional period. Harmonization of legislation is an important process for the successful development for the integrated unification model of the states in the post-Soviet era.
