Abstract: Legislative body Parliament through its representatives plays the decisive role in the democratic development of the rule of law. In order to establish a constructive line leading to a constitutional democracy, the Parliament was made up of two electoral cores, the parliamentary majority, those under the auspices of the government, those who exercise power and the opposition, minorities from an electoral point of view but who have critical dialogue and sanctioning acts that do not target the interest of the voter. Thus, the binomial opposition/parliamentary majority has always been based on the principle of dualism, in which the one who makes a mistake is corrected in the issue of governance. The two cores can also be viewed as an effective contrast that through democratic means participates in the governance of the rule of law.
