Podział majątku wspólnego małżonków po ustaniu ustroju małżeńskiej wspólności majątkowej
Authors: Słyk Jerzy
Published: February 2023

The article discusses the results of a case file study conducted in cases concerning community property of spouses after cessation of the matrimonial community property regime. First of all, the authors present Polish nationwide statistics concerning the numbers of cases of this kind compared to other types of property division cases and in the context of contractual modification of marital property regimes. An analysis of results of the case file study covered the problems of assets covered by the division, the kinds of claims formulated by spouses, the course of court proceedings, including: the initial stage, evidentiary proceedings, final decision, and appeal against the judgment. One of the most important and, at the same time, most surprising findings made during the study concerned a considerable number of settlements made at early stages of court proceedings. Combined with the low number of mediations or appeals against the final judgment, this demonstrates that the examined cases were not very contentious.

Zadośćuczynienie za krzywdę wynikłą ze spowodowania stanu wegetatywnego. Rozważania na tle wyroku Sądu Najwyższego z 16.04.2015 r., I CSK 434/14
Authors: Ziemianin Karolina
Published: February 2023

The subject of this article covers three issues: first of all, whether non-pecuniary damage can be done to an unconscious person; secondly, what criteria should be taken into account when determining the amount of compensation and whether the unconsciousness of the aggrieved person increases or decreases the amount of compensation; and thirdly, whether the amount of compensation awarded to an unconscious person affects the granting of compensation to the closest relatives of that person and the amount of such compensation. The Civil Code do not provide direct answers to these questions. The issues raise doubts in legal scholarship and in judicial decisions. Dogmatic and analytical research leads to the conclusion that a person who is unaware of his/her non-pecuniary damage should be compensated for that damage, and the amount of that compensation does not depend on the victim’s state of consciousness, but on the degree of violation of his/her personal rights, primarily health and life. Lack of awareness, as in established persistent vegetative state caused by serious brain damage, can be a criterion for increasing the amount of compensation. It is a sign of considerable intensity of damage to the aggrieved person’s health. What is irrelevant in this regard is the possibility of granting compensation to persons closest to the victim for their own non-pecuniary damage arising from the harm caused to the victim’s health.

Museumification of a mosque: Kazakhstani discourse of public spaces
Authors: Medeuova K. , Kikimbayev M.
Published: February 2023

Public consciousness often replicates established notions of what public spaces mean, endowing them with familiar characteristics and features stemming from their openness or closedness to the interaction of individuals or the communication of communities. At the same time, as various processes and changes in culture and everyday life show, public spaces, violating our habitual notions of them, demand their reconsideration, as if insistently offering us new and unexpected scenarios of their own transformations and hybridizations. It is especially interesting to trace this to the examples of changes in urban life, where, in our opinion, the probability of the intersection of different practices influencing the construction of the discourse on new public spaces seems to be the highest. The article presents some reconsideration of the role and place of the mosque in Kazakhstani society, in the discourse on public space based on statistical data from 1990 to 2021, as well as field data collected between December 2021 and March 2022. The main focus is to trace the emergence of cultural memory beyond the boundaries of museums, the museification of Kazakhstani mosques, and wider public space. The authors have fixed a new tendency to the openness of religious space in Kazakhstan, when mosques perform not only the usual cult rituals and ceremonies, but also become a new public space, a place of complicity of state, religious and cultural institutions. As individual cases, we analyzed collaborations among representatives of various local communities aimed at expanding the functions of mosques, including their use for broader social communication and the translation of religious values and narratives of cultural memory
Non-violence as a philosophical problem
Authors: Mustafina T. , Abdibek A. , Amangeldiyev A.
Published: February 2023

At present, the transformation of ethical, social, cultural, and geopolitical processes in our social reality at a new level requires from humanity a special qualitative formation of the level of consciousness. In this regard, we consider it appropriate to form detailed discourses about the constructor of the phenomenon of cruelty, its effectiveness. When it comes to the problem of non-violence, many do not believe in the viability of this phenomenon in today's reality. Since the issues of non-violence, worrying human consciousness since ancient times, have not found proper application in the course of practice. At present, humanity is increasingly facing the negative consequences of ignoring the doctrine of non-violence. The modern world is disintegrating on a substantial level, it is chaotic. Therefore, such ideological programs and actions as global contradictions, manipulation of public consciousness, terrorism, the threat of the use of nuclear weapons, religious and ethnic tensions, new movements and groups, doctrines of various persuasions and directions, require the study of the essence and meaning of non-violence in accordance with the trends of the time. In the global era, the rapid development of scientific and technical innovations, in addition to significant achievements in human life, creates new problems and prompts a new analysis of the fundamental question of the future of humanity. In recent times, new types and forms of abuse have appeared, and the fact that they cause great evil in an underground way makes it necessary to turn the idea of non-abuse into a life practice. In this article, a step is taken to differentiate thoughts about how the idea became a doctrine in the historical scene and the scope of its application today.
Pax sovietica - the unique world of the Soviet state
Authors: Menkouski V.
Published: February 2023

The article analyzes the formation of the image of the USSR as a unique phenomenon in Russian and world history in the political, cultural, and media practices of the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation. The research uses the methodology of historical memory studies, i.e., the study of historical consciousness, collective memory, and historical memory. The methodology used made it possible to analyze two stages of the formation of the «image of the USSR» - the Soviet (self) representation of the 1930s and the Russian (re)design of the 1990s - 2020s. When considering both stages, attention was paid primarily to the desire to characterize the Soviet phenomenon as a unique phenomenon of world history, the most progressive version of the existence of man, society, and the state. «Soviet civilization» in the case of the 1930s was interpreted as the optimal model for all mankind, in the case of the 1990s - 2020s as an integral component not only of modern Russian society but also of the widely understood «Russian world». The author concludes that the image formed in the 1930s is mainly used in modern Russian memory policy. There is a noticeable tendency to replace the concept of «Soviet» with the concept of «Russian», even though Russia was not the Soviet Union, just as the Soviet Union was not Russia. The next aspect is related to the dynamism of the Soviet model. The socio-economic and political system has evolved both because of the plans of the ruling elites and because of the influence of society on the elites. Global development trends and geopolitical competition also had an undoubted influence. «Soviet civilization» is very difficult to fit into the dichotomy of «socialism - capitalism» because of the vagueness and controversy of both concepts. Russian nostalgia for the USSR is a special case of post-communist (post-socialist) nostalgia idealizing the image of a bygone social order. However, the Soviet past in the Russian interpretation turned out to be a more «useful past» than it appears in historical and mythological variations of other countries.
Commemorative policy in Independent Kazakhstan
Authors: Musatayeva F.
Published: February 2023

In the article, the commemorative policy in Kazakhstan is analyzed in the period from the 90s to the present. During the classification of commemorative practices, the partial involvement of the state in the implementation of certain measures is demonstrated. It is established that the commemorative policy pursued by the authorities is carried out in accordance with the requests of society, or the process of its further promotion is continued by people who are interested in the task of "establishing historical justice". This article attempts to classify memorable practices into four types by differentiating state-level acts that are instruments of commemoration. The classification of commemorative acts was determined by the content structure in order to prove the representation of each classification, a case method was used. In practical cases, the effectiveness of normative acts aimed at modernizing national memory, the ideological significance of holidays and anniversaries celebrated by the general public, and the impact of toponymic changes are studied. In addition, a retrospective analysis of such events as the celebration of Nauryz and the anniversary of Abai Kunanbayuly showed that their ideological significance and scenario are due to current political changes. By analyzing the commemorative practices over the years of independence, it was revealed that the acts carried out by the authorities in relation to national memories perform several functions: first, carrying the collective memory; second, uniting intergenerational ties for many years; third, keeping identity by increasing participation of interested groups and the population. In the study of the article topic, the theories of Emile Durkheim, Pierre Nor, Aleida Assman, "Adilet" legal system of regulatory legal acts of the Republic of Kazakhstan and mass media data published in open Internet sources were used.
Historical and cultural aspects of the study of the sacred places of the Irtysh region and the problem of hagiotomension
Authors: Rakhimov M. , Battalov K. , Dukombaiev A. , Saparova K.
Published: February 2023

The article is devoted to the problem of hagiotic understanding of the sacred places of the Irtysh region. On the territory of Kazakhstan, stretching from the Altai in the east to the Caspian Sea in the west, there are many toponyms named after saints. In particular, there are many toponyms associated with the names of saints in the Irtysh region. In this regard, it should be noted that the Irtysh region is one of the sacred places of the Kazakh people with a thousand-year history. Only by studying the sacred sites stretching for one hundred to one hundred and twenty kilograms on both banks along the entire length of the Irtysh, we can preserve the traditional religion. The basis for the formation of hagiotonymic names were sacred characters, saints, their ways, which formed the basis of legends. In the popular worldview, the places where the foot of the saints set foot were considered sacred, and places of worship built for sacred characters became important objects of worship.
Risk management in public administration
Authors: Zhanseitova G. , Tleuberdiyeva S. , Auelbekova A.
Published: February 2023

With the growth of risks and uncertainties at the regional and national levels of management, the integration of risk management methodology into the sphere of public administration is becoming increasingly important. Examples of the implementation of risks in the field of public administration are the insufficient consideration of foreign economic risks in state policy, the negative dynamics of socio-economic indicators at the regional level, the increase in the cost of state programs, the delay in the timing of necessary public procurement, the failure to fulfill obligations to the population. The goals of state authorities are to minimize risks to society in a specialized area, for example, smoothing the risks of fluctuations in the economic situation, reducing risks in the areas of budget, tax, insurance, currency, banking, reducing demographic risks, risks of reducing the standard of living and income of the population, analyzing environmental and man-made risks, reducing the likelihood of their implementation and minimizing losses.

Development of corporate social responsibility of a company in the quasi-public sector in the context of the implementation of the concept of sustainable development on the example of NAC Kazatomprom JSC
Authors: Bekenov N. , Dossova S.
Published: February 2023

The extensive practice of applying social responsibility tools shows that corporate social responsibility determines the sustainable development and competitiveness of a business. However, the mechanism of this influence remains incompletely studied. Currently, there are only fragmentary studies of the impact of business reputation and company image on its value, customer satisfaction, and staff satisfaction. However, such a mechanism has not yet been proposed. This is a gap in modern knowledge. The article proposes a model for the formation of sustainable development of a quasi-public company in the environment of the principles of effective CSR management. The results of the study showed that the algorithm of the CSR management improvement process is the weakest point. However, in general, the lag in the profile of compliance with CSR principles is not critical and amounts to only 26.4%. The overall value of the cognitive matrix for assessing the implementation of the principles of effective CSR management was 132.5.

Authors: Nurmukhametov N. , Prymbetova S.
Published: February 2023

The strategy for the development of industrial enterprises in the conditions of global competition, high growth rates, and ensuring national security of Kazakhstan is aimed at innovative management of the production of high-tech products based on assessments of its competitiveness. Consequently, the practice of top managers indicates that they pay special attention to the study and research in the production of high-tech products in order to ensure the competitiveness of the enterprise. The description of the production cycle from the perspective of the application of various economic models allows the manager to make optimal management decisions in the production of high-tech engineering products only on the basis of effective communication. The hypothesis of the scientific article is the statement that in the conditions of the digital economy, the used definitions of the competitiveness of high-tech products require the study of methods of their assessment, taking into account marketing tools based on full and reliable information. Therefore, the article suggests the use of a complex indicator to determine the competitiveness of hightech products, taking into account the determination of the factors of the significance of event marketing and the inclusion in the methodology of assessing the competitiveness of high-tech products - the indicator "the significance of event marketing", based on the use of relevant and reliable information.
The international and domestic practice of coordinated audit
Authors: Alibekova B. , Maksot A.
Published: February 2023

The system of state audits in the country is developing day by day. An advanced foreign experience has a positive impact on the development of domestic legal acts, and standards, as well as improving the activities of state audit bodies. However, the types of audits have not yet been fully studied. In addition to an external and internal audit, the state audit is divided depending on the object of the audit, and the time and nature of its conduct. From this point of view, a coordinated audit is of particular interest for domestic state audit bodies. Therefore, this article investigates the coordinated audit used at the world level in the practice of the Supreme Audit Institutions of many states in order to identify the best practices. The article clarifies its classification and definitions. The author's definition of the coordinated audit is proposed in the article. The article analyzes the experience of conducting a coordinated audit by the Accounts Committee with an assessment of the advantages and disadvantages of the types used by it. It is established that at present the committee uses only two types of coordinated audit, namely parallel and joint, and also performs them mainly by the type of efficiency audit or compliance audit. As a result, there is justified and suggested the necessity of introducing connected audits into the practice of domestic state audit bodies and the widespread use of the audit of financial statements along with the audit of efficiency and compliance audit.

The features of the government budget management in Kazakhstan
Authors: Tagabay B. , Zhagyparova A.
Published: February 2023

The article addresses Kazakhstan's state budget development and administration throughout the worldwide pandemic and geopolitical upheavals. Using the state budget as an example, this paper examines the evolution of the budget system and ideas to enhance its efficiency and openness. The increasing focus of public finances on solving particular objectives to attain socioeconomic development goals has made boosting the openness and transparency of the budget system an exceedingly critical responsibility. This problem is important since the budget is currently actively burning the national fund's reserves, which may lead to risks in the future. As a result, budget management must be reviewed and adapted to new circumstances. The study's goal is to examine the effective administration of the state budget and its expenditure in light of changing circumstances. The study is descriptive in nature and is based on the findings of previously published publications.

Authors: Rakhimzhanova K. , Bulakbay Zh. , Kodasheva G.
Published: February 2023

Social policy, being the most important component of the state's activities, should not only mitigate negative social phenomena, but also help the population adapt to new conditions, promote social support for reforms, implement positive changes in the economy, and ensure social orientation of development. In general, regardless of the country's economy, we see that the income and life of the population are not the same. Social assistance will be provided to improve the quality of life of the population, as well as to prevent poverty. For this reason, the social policy of the state occupies a significant place in the country's economy, and its proper implementation is one of the tasks of the government. This article provides some tips on improving the effectiveness of domestic social policy. The article will also analyze the state support programs of the country, consider ways to stabilize the social system and increase income and quality of life.
Review on measuring the efficiency of research funds: challenges and implications for Kazakhstan
Authors: Abdikadirova A. , Sembiyeva L. , Temirkhanov Zh.
Published: February 2023

This article seeks to discuss the main challenges in evaluating the efficiency of research spendings. Undoubtedly, one of the attributes of the increased attention to science and research activities is the proliferation of competitively allocated grants through various programs. There are also other aspects of this notion such as internationally diversified collaboration and the creation of multiple excellence centers. For these and other reasons, the implementation of traditional research funding methods are being transformed. This article provides a descriptive and analytical review of the research-funding instruments and presents their implications for developing countries by reviewing the literature on research funding. The analysis of key changes in governance and variety funding schemes that have already been implemented in developed countries may contribute to the emerging economies. In addition, the paper suggests recommendations for further research taking into account the indicators of current policy documents regarding the science development.
Cobb – Douglas Production Function: application experience in the North Kazakhstan region
Authors: Balgarina L. , Dzhumabaev S. , Shokamanov Yu.
Published: February 2023

In the conditions of the existing significant interregional imbalance of socio-economic development of regions, the issue of increasing the effectiveness of government decisions, including through forecasting, is of particular importance. The quality of such solutions is impossible without the use of modern methods of econometric modeling and information technology. Despite the considerable period of its existence, many scientists still consider the Cobb-Douglas production function to be a method that makes it possible to reliably display the opportunities and prospects of the economic component of the development of the region or its industrial sector. Within the framework of the study, the authors answer the question about the possibility of constructing an adequate Cobb-Douglas production function with static parameters to characterize the development of the North Kazakhstan region and its industrial sector. Empirically, both hypotheses were refuted. If in the first case one of the obtained coefficients did not satisfy our idea with its sign (it was negative), then in the second – using the least squares method, the parameters of the model were determined that did not satisfy the purpose of the study. The choice of the model is not accidental. If its development is successful, its application would make it possible to provide local authorities with a convenient, accessible and understandable tool for analysis and forecasting. However, the results obtained during the study indicate that it is necessary to consider other variations of the production function, and possibly other econometric methods and models, to synthesize several methods in order to develop an adequate model of the economic development of the region and the industrial complex of the region.
Citation metrics: To refuse or use?
Authors: Kalabikhina I. E. , Kalyagin G. V.
Published: February 2023

The article analyzes the use of bibliometric indicators to evaluate the work of scientists. We answer the question of why bibliometric assessments of scientific work have become so widespread in recent decades; also, we consider the pros and cons of such assessments from the point of view of public welfare. The paper gives recommendations for reforming the current system of assessing the effectiveness of scientific work. It is necessary to minimize reporting on publications and citations and not create conditions for a race in the number of citations and articles. Since citations of scientific papers have a delay, the assessment of published articles based on bibliometrics should have a lag of 1 to 5 years, depending on the research area. Publication in a scientific journal should not be the only form of presenting the results of scientific work: conference reports, reports (including grants), monographs, etc. must also be taken into account. For effective organization of science, formal rules alone are not sufficient; informal institutions are no less important, primarily the institution of scientific reputation. In order to stimulate its development in the Russian scientific community, we offer using the formal institution of vicarious liability — the responsibility of employers for violations of employees. Liability, in this case, means the dependence of state funding of an organization on violations of scientific ethics committed by its researchers. Finally, it is necessary to reinforce the significance of the institution of peer review, making this process more public.
Trade damper effect of regional trade agreements
Authors: Zuev V. N. , Ostrovskaya E. Y. , Skryabina V. Y.
Published: February 2023

The authors explore the impact of crises on the dynamics of trade between partners within regional trade agreements (RTAs) with the aim to determine whether RTAs have a stabilizing effect on foreign trade. RTAs have become one of the main instruments of trade policy in recent decades. It is generally recognized that RTAs do stimulate trade at the time of stability and growth. It is logical to assume that meeting commitments between RTA partners should lead to the preservation of trade flows between them in the event of a crisis. However, this statement requires empirical confirmation. The study examines the effects of RTA networks for the three most active RTAs’ participants located on different continents — the EU, Chile and the Republic of Korea. The analysis of dynamics of these countries trade flows indicates a clear trend of strengthening trade interaction between RTA partners during crisis periods. The focus of the methodology of the study lies in computations of three trade indices: export significance index, trade intensity index and symmetric trade introversion index. They were calculated for the totality of trade partners for the EU, Chile and the Republic of Korea from 2005 to 2020 in order to identify the dominant tendencies of trade flows during periods of economic shocks of recent decades (the financial crisis of 2008—2009 and the crisis caused by the pandemic of 2019—2021). The authors come to the conclusion that for the studied countries and the EU RTAs act as a damper that reduces the negative impact of crises on foreign trade. Trade between RTA countries at the time of a crisis either decreased to a lesser extent compared to trade between countries that do not have RTA, or recovered faster. This empirically confirms yet another significant importance of RTAs. The authors suggest to make similar calculations for other countries and RTAs to support the revealed pattern.
Speed of sound, isentropic compressibility and acoustic impedance for long chain non-polar molecule with isomeric alcohols at T=288.15 to 318.15 K
Authors: Singh Arun K. , Singh Ashish , Singh Sandeep , Prakash Gyan
Published: February 2023

Theoretical results for sound speed, isentropic compressibility, and acoustic impedance for two binary systems, 1-Butanol + n-Dodecane and 2- Butanol + n-Dodecane, were derived from Peleteiro et al's measurements at temperatures of 288.15, 298.15, 308.15,318.15 K and atmospheric pressure over the entire composition range. The mixing properties and interactions of these liquids were explored using the Flory model, the Ramaswamy and Anbananthan (RS) model, and the Glinski model. The Redlich-Kister polynomial equation was used to fit deviations in the speed of sound (u). In addition, the McAllister multi- body interaction model is applied. The molecular interactions from these liquid state models were explored and connected with the features of the liquids. Finally, it was discovered that when compared to related models, the McAllister multibody interaction model (non- associated) produces good results, whereas the Flory model produces greater deviations.

Published: February 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the criminal radicalism state among prisoners in penal institutions. The purpose of the article is to formulate a theoretical model of the criminal radicalism state among prisoners in penal institutions.

It has been found that criminal radicalism is a manifestation of radical, violent influence on the components of the punishment environment, prohibited by the law on criminal liability, with the aim of fundamentally changing them. Criminal radicalism among convicts is represented by a block structure, which provides for unequal criminal law content and limits of relevant antisocial practices. Endogenous and exogenous criminal radicalism in penal institutions has been identified and characterized. The annual level of endogenous criminal radicalism among convicts in penal institutions is 32 crimes, 87.5 % of which are criminal offenses provided for in Art. 255-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, 9.4 % are intentional murders, 3.1 % are intentional grievous bodily harm. In the structure of general crime among prisoners (annual averaged indicator), the share of endogenous criminal radicalism is about 6 %.

In 2021, the level of exogenous criminal radicalism amounted to 143 criminal offenses, which is 27.7 % of the total crime in penitentiary institutions. The average annual value of the relevant indicators in 2016–2021 was 134 criminal offenses, and the average share in the structure of crime in penal institutions was 29.5 %. The aggregate indicators of exogenous and endogenous criminal radicalism, i.e. criminal radicalism among prisoners in general, show the following picture: the average annual level is 142 criminal offenses, the share in the structure of crime among prisoners is 29 %, but without taking into account the latency factor. Taking into account the latent part of crime in penitentiary institutions, especially drug-related crimes, violent sex crimes, criminal offenses against health and property, the real share of criminal radicalism among prisoners is about 10 %. There is a tendency for positive growth.

Further reform of law enforcement activities in Ukraine is, of course, absolutely necessary and requires constant attention from the leadership of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the National Police and the services and units involved in this activity. The scientific approach and the definition of new directions and technologies are impossible without the use of research studies of the scientific and pedagogical staff of higher education institutions with specific learning conditions. The article analyzes the work of the dialogue police, identifies directions for improving their activities in terms of serving at mass events. Dialogue police is one of the main innovations in the proposed system of public order protection, which is implemented in the law enforcement activities of Ukraine as a “Scandinavian model”.

The main tactical tasks of the dialogue police have been formulated, which include communication tactics and tactical skills. Based on the expert survey of police officers from different units, a list of problematic issues has been identified and directions for further research have been formulated. The factors that affect the effectiveness of the dialogue police during the service have been considered and analyzed, which made it possible to adjust the tactics of actions and personal security measures of the personnel. The tactics and personal security measures of the dialogue police are based on the basic principles of the Scandinavian model, the capabilities of the National Police, the theory of the crowd, the features of mass events, the differentiation of dangers and the “tree of events”.

The actions and location of the dialogue police personnel have been proposed depending on the color of the “barometer of the situation” (green, yellow, red), the location in relation to other units of the National Police has been established. The conclusions and recommendations have been given, on the basis of which it is possible to reduce the level of injuries among the personnel of the dialogue police during the service at mass events and to increase their effectiveness; they can be used during the preparation of police officers for service and targeted instruction.
ЦИВІЛЬНО-ПРАВОВЕ РЕГУЛЮВАННЯ ВІДНОСИН У СФЕРІ ПРОФЕСІЙНОГО СПОРТУ В ПЕРІОД ВОЄННОГО СТАНУ
Authors: Омельчук Олександр Сергійович
Published: February 2023

У статті досліджено питання цивільно-правового регулювання відносин в сфері професійного спорту в період воєнного стану, яка потерпає від неоднозначності в правовому регулюванні відповідних відносин в цей період часу. Визначено, що на сьогоднішній день проблематика правового регулювання відносин в сфері професійного спорту в умовах кризових явищ, спричинених повномасштабним вторгненням не вивчалася вітчизняними дослідниками через відсутність публічності в прийнятті рішень на рівні національних спортивних федерацій, що зумовлює актуальність аналогічних досліджень. Відзначено, що для досягнення цілей дослідження важливим є правильне розуміння підстав та процедурних моментів внесення змін до умов договорів в сфері професійного спорту. Відзначено, що одним з завдань цивільно-правового регулювання є стабільність договірних правовідносин, в той час як істотна зміна обставин, якими сторони керувалися під час укладенні договору, набуває особливого ризикового значення під час виконання договору, що може привести до дисбалансу зобов’язань сторін договору. З’ясовано, що інтереси сторін цивільно-правового договору можуть порушуватися будь-якою зміною обставин, що виникає під час виконання договору, проте, лише істотна зміна обставин визнається підставою для пред’явлення вимоги про зміну умов договору. Визначено, що у разі істотної зміни обставин за цивільним законодавством України належне виконання договору є можливим, але істотно ускладненим. Істотна зміна обставин може бути кваліфікована як вид непереборних (непередбачуваних) обставин. Зроблено висновок, що питання цивільно-правового регулювання відносин в сфері професійного спорту в період воєнного стану залишаються актуальними для наукової розробки з метою подальшого вдосконалення нормативного базису та конкретизації загальних норм цивільного законодавства щодо виконання зобов’язань за професійними контрактами в сфері спорту та досягнення балансу публічних та приватних інтересів в відносинах в сфері професійного спорту.
Allontanamento del minore dalla famiglia d'origine alla luce dell'art. 8 della CEDU
Authors: Chiappetta Giovanna
Published: February 2023

La materia dell'allontanamento del minore dalla famiglia di origine è complessa e delicata anche perché disciplinata da fonti eterogenee frutto della integrazione di almeno tre sistemi giuridici: nazionale, dell'Unione Europea e del più largo Consiglio d'Europa. La riflessione mira a cogliere l'evoluzione dell'istituto dell'adozione dei minori mediante l'interpretazione del diritto alla vita familiare ex art. 8 della Convenzione per la salvaguardia dei Diritti dell'uomo e delle Libertà fondamentali.
