Answer to Question 1

The first element  law is a body of rules  is self-evident. What is not obvious, but is important, is the variety of sources of law including statutes, constitutions, court decisions, and administrative regulations. The second element  law is enacted by public officials  is of critical importance. Rules and regulations are only law under our definition if they are recognized by public officials. The third element  law is enacted in a legitimate manner  means that it must be agreed upon ahead of time how the rules will be changed including methods for passing, applying, and interpreting new laws. The fourth and final element  law is backed by the force of the state  says that these rule and regulations would be largely meaningless without sanctions. The consequences are what set law apart from other social rules.
