Let $R$ be a ring.
An ideal $J$ of $R$ is maximal if and only if:
- $(1): \quad J \subsetneq R$
- $(2): \quad$ There is no ideal $K$ of $R$ such that $J \subsetneq K \subsetneq R$.
That is, if and only if $J$ is a maximal element of the set of all proper ideals of $R$ ordered by the subset relation.
