Legitimacy: refers to that people's behavior conforms to the legal requirements.

Legitimacy can be understood from both broad and narrow perspectives.

Legitimacy in a broad sense, that is, legal acts in the sense of rule of law, refers to all acts that are not prohibited by law. In fact, it is an act of legal tolerance, and it is not pursued. As the saying goes, "no prohibition is allowed by law" and "no punishment without explicit provisions" has risen to a principle of rule of law, which is a "legally prescribed punishment for a crime" in criminal law. In this sense, as long as it is not illegal, it is legal. Legal acts in a broad sense include narrow legal acts and non-legal acts (neutral acts). The significance of distinguishing between legal acts and illegal acts from the perspective of the rule of law lies in: protecting democracy and freedom to the maximum extent, preventing autocracy and preventing the government from abusing power. As far as government power is concerned, the principle of rule of law means "everything that is not allowed by law is prohibited".

A narrow legal act, that is, a legal act in the sense of legal adjustment, refers to an act that is implemented by the subject under his own will, conforms to legal norms, is beneficial to society or at least harmless, and thus is protected by law. Legal acts generally refer to legal acts in a narrow sense. It has the following characteristics:

1. From the perspective of legal evaluation, it is an act with legal significance, that is, an act within the scope of legal adjustment. This is the difference between it and non-legal behavior.

2. From the legal nature of the act, it is an act that meets the requirements of legal norms, which is manifested in the compliance with the behavior pattern guided by the norms.

3. From the perspective of behavioral consequences, it usually produces results that meet the needs of society, so it is beneficial to society or at least harmless to society.

4. From the perspective of national will, it is an act required, hoped or allowed by the state, and the law has corresponding obligations to ensure its realization.

5. From the legal consequences, it causes positive legal consequences and is an act protected by national laws.
