The author examines the theoretical aspects of the concept and the content of the term «legal restrictions of the rights and freedoms of the individual» as a legal institution of any civil society, as well as their characteristic properties. It is concluded that the constitutional criteria for limiting the rights and freedoms in the current legislation do not have such distinct characteristics and are abstract in their nature. In connection with the conclusion, the author proposes the most acceptable definition of a restriction of rights and freedoms to be used in legal science.
