The judicial system
Nowadays, every country in the world has a system of laws to which its inhabitants are subject, and a judicial system prepared to punish non-compliance with those laws in an impartial manner.
The existence of a judicial system it is in favor of the application of uniform criteria and against the rule of force, that is, of the tyranny of the strongest over the weakest, or of justice by its own hand, which inexorably ends in an escalation of violence.
The different types of trials offer different mechanisms for conflict resolution, but in almost all cases there is a judge which is the one that ultimately has to act: its failure, however, is usually based on a structural basis, explaining in what legal rules it was based to elaborate its decision. (See: What is a Legal Act?)
Prosecutors and lawyers They are also essential pieces in trials. For less serious situations, modern systems propose the mediation, system in which a third party searches facilitate communication between the parties involved in the conflict, so that they can resolve it themselves.
The structuring of the law in different branches allowed the differentiation between many forms of judgment, each with its particular regulations that seek to regulate the actions of society in pursuit of a better coexistence.
However, for much of history mankind deviated from these values and it was handled with other criteria, as in the despotisms, in which the word of certain individuals was above those of all others.
