Abstract

The purpose of the research. The following article deals with analysis of existed in middle Ages authorities of popular agency- veche, tings, and also first English parliament. What is more, authors use the term «people`s authorities», which was introduced in the scientific parlance by D. M. Petrushevsky in order to underline the specific phase in the development of representative organs characteristic of north and northeast Europe. Our hypothesis is that commune was a significant attribute of statehood development in north and northeast Europe in middle Ages. With time it had been flagging and was replaced by royal power and state institutions. Chronologically this process was ongoing in various countries differently. According to subjective attitudes, fate of the direct people`s representative was bulging up not in the same way. While studying the problem the material of Icelandic sagas, Scandinavian king`s law, English parliament statutes, text of annals and treaties was used. Diversity of sources and its huge text let us use the comparative law analysis method and find out common and uncommon features in the process of developing direct people`s representative, its existence dynamic and historic fate.
