<![CDATA[Demonstrations as a form of social expression and political participation are an important indicator of the dynamic relationship between society and government. This article examines the phenomenon of demonstrations from the perspective of legal realism and how legislators adhering to legal realism respond to them.

The analysis shows that legal realism views law not as a static rule, but as a social process that evolves according to societal needs.
