Abstract
In the Bulgarian legal literature, the terms ‘legal norm’ and ‘legal provision’ are not completely clarified. As a result of differing views on their content, various opinions are formed regarding the relation between the legal norm and the legal provision. Some authors are of the opinion that the two are equivalent, while others believe that the legal norm is the content of the legal provision and can be educed from the latter by interpretation. At the same time, the question whether there are legal provisions which do not contain legal norms, is neglected. The current article discusses the relation between the legal norm and the legal provision, the types of legal provisions, which the legal acts contain, as well as some matters of the interpretation.
