What is Legitimacy vs. Legality in Governance about?

This document discusses the concepts of legitimacy and legality in law. It defines legitimacy as the belief that an authority, institution, or social arrangement is appropriate and deserves obedience. Legitimacy provides justification for power and governance, whereas legality refers only to what is legally permitted. The development of legal legitimacy is traced from its origins in equal treatment under the law to current understandings of it as psychological property leading to compliance.
