The article considers current tendencies of the constitutional develop
ment and global ways of legal evolution. By means of comparative legal analysis
and theoretical generalization of law evolution, an attempt to map out some pros
pects of legal development was made. The significant role of constitutional acts as a foundation and fundamentals of system-generating legal and political instru
ments for organizing a national system, its development and interaction with
international law and international institutions is emphasized. It is accentuated
that in spite of occasional crises, disputes and new conflicts, the uniting pro
cesses in law are objective. A new level of legal development is being formed-
metalaw as a complex planetary system of law and law of space civilization being born on planet Earth. Constitutional acts of different levels acting as adapters of legal systems of different levels and basic elements of some segments in a hierar chical complex legal system of humanity are expected to play an essential role.
