Peculiarities of ensuring the right to work of internally displaced persons (IDPs) during the war in Ukraine
Authors: Rusal L.M.
Published: March 2024

The article is devoted to the theoretical and legal problems of ensuring the right to work guaranteed by the Constitution of Ukraine to citizens, in particular internally displaced persons (IDPs), during the war in Ukraine, which requires special protection by the authorities and authorized bodies.

It was found that the needs of IDPs cover a wide range, but among the professional needs, the most relevant is work in a specialty, therefore, it is advisable, if possible, to transfer business, create jobs, create new enterprises precisely in the regions that today accept people fleeing from wars and occupations

It was emphasized that the "Unity for Action” program is operating in Ukraine, which unites internally displaced persons, host communities and specialized organizations on the path of long­term integration of internally displaced persons in Ukraine, and the goal of this project is to strengthen the social capital of IDPs, make them less vulnerable, to ensure IDPs' own contribution to the development of integration plans.

It is noted that the issue of employment is considered today in the context of the general socialization of IDPs, which implies the desire of people to integrate into the society where they currently live. The legislation of Ukraine guarantees the provision of the right to work through legal protection, which makes it impossible to have an illegal, biased attitude of the employer towards an internally displaced person.

Attention is drawn to the fact that a significant obstacle to the employment of IDPs during the war can be the lack of all necessary documents in person. Documents can be lost or destroyed during evacuation, so today social services and relevant authorized state bodies are working on restoring such documents using simplified procedures.

It is noted that there are persons from among IDPs who do not want to be employed, citing certain reasons, which, as a rule, are unjustified and far-fetched (loss of financial support and state benefits upon employment; inability to work part­time, etc.).
Extremism as a form of legal nihilism
Authors: Tymoshenko V.I. , Korolchuk V.V.
Published: March 2024

One of the global problems of the modern world is considered - the problem of extremism, which is the theory and practice of achieving socio­political, religious, national goals with the help of extreme, prohibited methods. From a political point of view, extremism is an ideology of protest against established social structures and institutions of power, which is designed for a wide public resonance and is accompanied by calls to undermine stability and violence. At the same time, extremism is a form of nihilism that denies universally recognized values and ideals, including law, demonstrates a tendency to extreme ideas and actions, fanaticism. Three components of legal nihilism are considered: worldview, psychological and behavioral. The strategy for implementing the provisions of the ideology of extremism is terrorism - an activity aimed at undermining social security, intimidation, and destabilization. The forms of manifestation of this phenomenon are political, economic, national, ecological and religious extremism. The causes of legal nihilism and extremism are identified, among which the most important are socio-political factors, namely: the weakening of state power and the passivity of its power structures; high corruption of officials; criminalization of society; assistance to extremists by representatives of foreign public organizations. The opinion that anomie is a stimulus to the deformation of legal consciousness and the formation of legal nihilism is substantiated. Forms and ways of spreading extremism are studied, including through the Internet. The personality of the extremist is characterized. It is argued that the danger of extremism lies not so much in the essence of views and the form of their expression, but in the goal that extremists seek to achieve, in the methods of achieving it, including aggression, violence, radical, often illegal actions. Public awareness of the danger of extremism, improvement of its legal culture, economic situation and efficiency of state power, together with the effectiveness of the legal system, will prevent the deformation of legal consciousness and the existence of this global problem.

Authors: Byelov D. , Leheza Ye.
Published: March 2024

The article discloses the forms and methods of legal regulation of consumer rights protection regarding waste management at the state level. It is emphasized that the state policy of Ukraine in the field of waste management is based on several basic principles. It is designed to protect the environment and human health from the negative impact of waste, to ensure the rational use of material, raw materials and energy resources, as well as scientifically based coordination of ecological, economic and social interests of society to achieve sustainable development.

It has been established that today, the most widespread method of waste treatment in Ukraine is its disposal in landfills, terrykons, sludge and tailings storage facilities, as well as in landfills. This leads to the occupation of large areas of fertile land and becomes a source of air pollution, and leachates penetrate into the soil and groundwater. However, it is important to consider that waste can become a source of secondary resources and serve as a source of energy. Therefore, humanity faces the task of widely implementing advanced technologies to prevent and limit the generation of waste, as well as for its disposal, regeneration and safe disposal, processing of non-recyclable waste.

As a conclusion, it is said that the development of society and the satisfaction of its needs interact with natural resources, which leads to a significant generation of industrial waste. The problem of waste management is recognized as one of the most urgent in the modern world and is a priority for developed countries. Due to the large volume of waste, Ukraine is facing a particularly acute situation. Based on the analysis, conclusions are drawn and recommendations are formulated for the further development of legislation and waste management practices in order to ensure effective protection of consumer rights in the international context. This article serves as a valuable contribution to the understanding and improvement of consumer protection systems in the context of environmental challenges and waste management.
The Place and Role of Advocacy and Notary in the System of Protecting the Rights of Servicemen
Authors: Ivashkova T.O.
Published: March 2024

This article is dedicated to exploring the role of advocacy and notary institutions in the context of the increasing importance of human rights mechanisms in the process of establishing the rule of law in Ukraine. Attention is focused on the necessity of ensuring real opportunities for the implementation and protection of guaranteed rights and freedoms of citizens in the conditions of the legal regime of martial law, creating legal, economic, political, social, and other conditions for their implementation.

Within this article, the content of the right to defense, which is ensured by a special mechanism through which servicemen implement the constitutional provisions of the right to legal assistance, is analyzed. Emphasis is placed on the legal nature of the advocacy institution as an important element of the human rights mechanism of civil society, which performs functions of representation and protection of the rights and interests of citizens and servicemen in particular.

Based on the analysis of current trends in the practice of protecting the rights of servicemen, a number of factors have been identified that could negatively affect the provision of effective and fair protection and therefore require joint efforts of military personnel, human rights defenders, and legal experts, namely: post-traumatic stress, access to up-to-date information, the specificity of military discipline and military hierarchy, insufficient understanding of the content of rights and protection possibilities and so on.

The article examines the activities of notaries, which are a type of legal activity aimed at realizing the rights and interests of citizens and legal entities through the use of various institutions by performing notarial acts and contributing to the protection of the lawful interests of the respective subjects.

The conclusion is drawn that according to the fifth part of Article 55 of the Constitution of Ukraine, everyone is guaranteed the protection of their rights, freedoms, and interests from violations and unlawful encroachments by any means not prohibited by law. Based on the content of this constitutional norm, the possibility of applying means and methods of protection of rights, including those not provided for by procedural norms, is envisaged. Such an approach corresponds to manifestations of the rule of law, which is not limited solely to legislation but also includes other social regulators, norms of morality, traditions, customs, etc.

Author determines to a certain stage of social development there is a need to streamline existing relationships in it. It is impossible to imagine human society without regulation of behavior by certain samples, models, scale. They also made as a result of frequent repetition, the rules to which future oriented society.

The rules of electoral law as a component of the constitutional right of Ukraine reflect in their entirety the nature and content of this area of law. For this reason they are sometimes compared to the cells as the fundamental principle of any living organism, the biological system.

Given the undoubted primacy norm of electoral law for other structural elements of the electoral law of Ukraine, namely the study of the nature, content and legal characteristics and features of the construction is a kind of "key" to the knowledge institutes and other components of the electoral law in general.

Identifying the nature and content of the rules of electoral law as a primary constituent elements of the same sub-system of law involves a determination of the legal category. This is not only a definition of the rules of electoral law, but also about filling it with the proper legal meaning, as well as identifying the main aggravating circumstances studied component of electoral law Ukraine.

Thus, the rules of the common signs of electoral law Ukraine include the following: 1) priority in the national legal system, and2) the nature of the installation, and 3) public-political content, and 4) the system of rule-making entities and norm, and 5) immediacy, 6) the highest legal force; 7) special source base 8) specificity patterns, 9)guaranteed.

Posthumous reproduction as a guarantee of the reproductive right implementation for military servants and other persons
Authors: Checherskyi V.
Published: March 2024

Introduction of assisted reproductive technologies, change in the capabilities of humanity in the field of reproduction of its own kind, caused states to establish their own rules for regulating social relations in this field, taking into account the existing legal traditions, customs and mentality.

It is emphasized that in view of the demographic crisis in Ukraine, which is gradually deepening in connection with full-scale aggression, the death of Ukrainian citizens as a result of hostilities and the outflow of human resources, the issue of improving state policy in the field of reproductive medicine is one of the most important issues today.

In this regard, in the conditions of martial law, the task of the state is the special protection of the rights of those persons who oppose the aggressor at the risk of their own lives. One of the ways to protect the fundamental right to procreate for this category of citizens is posthumous reproduction.

However, while not prohibiting posthumous reproduction, the state did not develop a clear position on admissibility, conditions and grounds for its use. As a result, national legislation in this area is contradictory.

The article assesses the acceptability of posthumous reproduction, its impact on the realization of the fundamental human right to reproductive reproduction, in particular for military personnel.

The recently adopted Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding Ensuring the Right of Military Servicemen and Other Persons to Biological Parenthood (Maternity)” is analyzed.

It was established that the legislative norms, which provide for the mandatory disposal of reproductive cells of deceased servicemen, actually negate the purpose of this Law.

In addition, arguments are given that its norms do not meet the requirements of the Constitution of Ukraine, including the provision of equality of citizens.

Additionally, the position that the law contains gaps is substantiated, as it regulates only the procedure for handling reproductive cells, but does not resolve the issue of storage and further handling of zygotes and embryos. At the same time, it has been proven, including with reference to other legislative acts, that they are different in nature, since the latter contain the genes of both parents.

It is noted that the submitted draft law dated January 29, 2024 No. 10437, which is designed to eliminate the shortcomings of the above-mentioned Law, does not address this gap, and therefore needs to be revised.
National and foreign experience in determining the legal status of guardianship bodies
Authors: Roziznanyi Ye.
Published: March 2024

In the scientific article, the author conducted a scientific study of the peculiarities of the legal status of guardianship and guardianship bodies in Ukraine and other countries. On the basis of the conducted research, the author came to the conclusion that guardianship and guardianship bodies are distinguished by various authorities - local bodies of state executive power and local self-government bodies, separate departments of these bodies, services for children, which function under local state administrations and local councils, and as well as advisory and advisory support bodies. At the same time, the scientific literature notes the inexpediency of such a wide list of guardianship and guardianship bodies and the need to empower these bodies only with services for children. In the family law doctrine, there is no unanimity regarding the definition of the powers of the guardianship and guardianship authorities, which relate to the protection of the rights and legitimate interests of the child; they are contained in special legislation, which, however, does not fully correspond to each other and provides for the presence of a number of bodies that do not actually function or carry out activities formally, without having the appropriate competence (commissions for the protection of children's rights, departments of local state administrations), or at the same time function two bodies that are subordinate to each other (local state administrations and services for children). In the family law doctrine, there is no certainty in the issue of recognition of guardianship bodies and care by subjects of family relations; some scientists attribute them to the subjects of administrative-procedural relations or to the participants of legal relations of a complex nature, which are partly family, while others distinguish them as subjects of family relations. Analogues of guardianship and guardianship bodies in the states of the European Union and candidate states for EU membership are various types of bodies, including quasi-judicial ones, which perform both the functions of appointing, approving or dismissing a guardian, as well as supervising the observance of the rights of the child by its guardian (in France these functions are divided between the "family council” and the "guardianship judge”). Also, these bodies make decisions in family disputes regarding determining a child's surname, establishing his origin, his upbringing and maintenance.
Unfair competition – an attack on the patrimonial rights of natural and legal persons
Authors: Ursu V. , Musteata E.
Published: March 2024

The subjects of the economic activity, whether they are natural persons or legal entities, are obliged to exercise their activity in good faith, according to honest usages, respecting the interests of consumers and the requirements of fair competition.

Based on the principles of freedom of trade and freedom of competition, any merchant has the right to attract the clientele of his competitors. Thus, the act of competition, even if it causes damage to some economic agents, is not illegal by itself, but only if the means, acts or facts used to attract customers are unfair.

A basic principle/inherent condition of the market economy is the competition between the companies carrying out economic activity on the respective market, of course when this competition is by the customs and provisions governing the rivalry of competitors.

The present study is intended to analyze the phenomenon of competition through the legislation of the Republic of Moldova that regulates competitive relations, including, addressing issues related to the identification and responsibility of the actors/ subjects of competitive relations, the types of legal liability, and the impact of unfair competition on the competitive environment in general and, on the rights and interests of natural and legal persons, but also of the society in particular.

The authors analyzed the provisions of competition legislation to identify the regulatory framework's quality and its deficiencies. For this purpose, the authors analyzed the provisions of the competition law no. 183/2012 and the Republic of Moldova's administrative, contraventional, and criminal Code.

The conclusions reached by the authors revealed a series of legislative loopholes, but also new research directions that would constitute the basis for certain recommendations and proposals for improving the analyzed normative framework.
The modern concept of improving the legal regulation of social security in Ukraine in the context of the development of the concept of civil society
Authors: Haievyi V.V.
Published: March 2024

This article focuses on developing the content of a contemporary, concept and strategic act aimed at enhancing the legal regulation of social security in Ukraine, contextualized within the evolution of the concept of civil society. The author advocates for the creation and endorsement of a Concept to facilitate the participation of civil society actors in bolstering the social security of modern Ukraine. Structurally, this Concept is composed of six parts. The first, ‘Problems that Require Solutions,' highlights issues such as the subpar quality of current legislation's legal regulation concerning the activities of civil society entities, leading to a legal vacuum in the legal framework and regulation of social security involving these entities. The second part, ‘Value Guidelines, Goals, and Objectives for the Implementation of this Concept,' delineates the foundational principles of the social security legal regulation mechanism in the context of civil society's development. Furthermore, it identifies the establishment of institutional, regulatory, and other resource conditions as a goal, enabling effective civil society participation in legally regulating conditions for a socially safe human existence in Ukraine.

The third section of the Concept, 'Time Frame for the Implementation of this Concept,’ specifies that while the Concept is valid indefinitely, the resolution of key issues addressed therein should be accomplished before 2026. The fourth part, 'Methods and Approaches for Problem,’ includes strategies such as enhancing current legislation on the legal regulation of civil society actors’ participation in legal processes, especially in social security regulation; the development of a Strategy for Social Security Assurance by Civil Society Actors and its corresponding implementation program, among others. The fifth and sixth parts, 'Anticipated Outcomes’ and 'Estimation of Financial, Material, Technical, and Human Resources,’ respectively, complete the Concept. The article’s conclusion summarizes the research findings and identifies a list of regulations that should be developed and enacted as part of the Concept’s implementation. These include proposed legislative drafts such as the Laws of Ukraine 'On Social Security,’ 'On the Activities of Civil Society Entities in Ukraine,’ and 'On Public Lobbying Activities.’
A system of principles as legal instruments that facilitate the achievement of the tasks of the coordination function of administrative and legal support for the coordination of anti-corruption actors
Authors: Lukianova H.Yu.
Published: March 2024

The coordination function of the State in combating corruption is the level of manifestation of the State influence in social relations and the main activity of the State, which consists in coordinating actions between different elements of the State apparatus in combating corruption, in coordinating actions between the State apparatus and non-governmental actors of the social system, in streamlining social and public administration relations, directing them towards achieving common goals or interests, and in which the method of direct imperative control is used rather than the method of coordinating actions in relation to based on common interests and/or competencies, in accordance with the principle of striving for ideal performance.

Anti-corruption activities can only be effective if the principles of coordination of anti-corruption actors are established at the regulatory level and the principles of administrative and legal support for coordination of anti-corruption actors are established, which is due to the need for quick and complete coordination and its effective implementation.

The need to study the principles of administrative and legal regulation of the State's coordination function in combating corruption is due to the existence of gaps in the theoretical plane of law cognition and limited scientific substantiation. That is why the issues related to administrative and legal regulation of the State's coordination function in combating corruption are relevant for research, and its principles are among the key ones in this context.

In general, the coordination role of the state is hardly ever considered through the prism of principles. Given the extremely low level of scientific attention to the issue of administrative and legal support for the coordination of anti­corruption actors, its essence, features and directions, one of the priority tasks should be to define a system of principles of this institution as the basic and initial idea of the entire system of state influence on social relations. Even today, the principles of administrative and legal support for the coordination of anti-corruption actors are not yet considered fundamental categories, as many scholars still perceive them in the abstract and separately from practical activities.
Mediation in the administrative process
Authors: Rizenko O.V.
Published: March 2024

The article is devoted to the issues of the peculiarities of mediation in the administrative process of Ukraine as a kind of alternative methods of conflict resolution, which needs improvement and development, taking into account international norms and national needs.

It was found that in the process of reforming the judicial and law enforcement system, the issue of simplified dispute resolution procedures became relevant, in particular, we are talking about alternative methods (mediation, negotiations, etc.). This approach will make it possible to relieve the courts, speed up the resolution of disputes and help maintain friendly relations between the parties participating in the mediation process.

It was emphasized that in Ukraine there are a number of cases in administrative proceedings that can be resolved in an alternative way. Alternative means of resolving administrative disputes will allow dynamic resolution of conflicts, in particular those related to traffic accidents, offenses in the field of labor protection and others, the settlement of which is possible under the legislation of Ukraine through the mediation procedure.

It is noted that the Law of Ukraine "On Mediation” is in effect in Ukraine, the norms of which determine the peculiarities of mediation in civil, economic, administrative proceedings, in the field of notarial activity, modify social relations and require the use of special techniques, methods and methods of regulating mediation relations in legal processes.

Attention is focused on the fact that for mediation in the administrative process it is important to observe the norms of ethical behavior, in particular, the mediator's code of ethics. In Ukraine today, the unified rules of ethical behavior of the mediator and participants in the mediation process are not legislated. Such rules are adopted by public associations based on the European Code of Conduct for Mediators.

In administrative and legal practice, the experience of mediation is new, but, as practice shows, it is promising and in demand. The mediation procedure will help resolve the dispute positively for all parties, saving time and money as much as possible, and will also help the parties remain on good terms with each other.
Military Administrations as a Subject of Power
Authors: Roy O.
Published: March 2024

The operation of the state during a specific period is influenced by the establishment of specialized governing bodies or changes in the legal status of existing entities. This is precisely what military administrations are as special subjects of power, commencing their activities after the implementation of the legal regime of martial law and possessing extensive powers and rights. The relevance of the scientific research topic lies in the emergence of new legal relations, including the composition of subjects, requiring additional analysis. The imposition of the legal regime of martial law across the entire territory of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, was prompted by a full-scale military aggression against Ukraine. Consequently, a comprehensive change in the mechanisms of state functioning necessitates thorough and detailed study, encompassing both theoretical and practical aspects. The theoretical foundation for the research draws from the works of scholars such as V.Y. Bohdanovych, S.O. Kuznichenko, V.V. Dulger, V.Y. Shevchenko, Y. Yakovchuk, S.M. Melnyk, and others. The normative and legal basis encompasses the Constitution of Ukraine, Laws of Ukraine on the legal regime of martial law, on local state administrations, decrees of the President of Ukraine, and other legal acts. The article delves into the legislative concept of military administration, as well as the regulatory and legal aspects of their activities. Based on the research results, the author proposes the definition «military administration» and explores the classification of military administrations by subordination and administrative-territorial principles. The issue of appointing the heads of military administrations is examined in the context of verifying their competence and suitability for the position. Conclusions drawn from the elaborated scientific- theoretical and legal foundation shed light on the functioning of military administrations as special subjects of power, identifying shortcomings in their operation and suggesting possible solutions. This approach aims to eliminate legislative gaps and contribute to enhancing the defense capability of the state and elevating the level of functioning of its institutions.

In general, most of the consumers in Malaysia would throw away their cooking oil just after one or two times of usage. Waste of the cooking oil is one of the root causes of water pollution as well as the cause of clogged the sink and drainage system in the residential areas. These situations occur due to bad habits of people to simply throw away used cooking oil that would affect and harm the environment. As the world moves forward to a sustainable city and greener environment, the society need to tackle this bad habit from becoming worse. This paper proposes a conceptual idea on how to educate, promote, create awareness as well as encourage the public to be more responsible in managing and disposing used cooking oil. The objective of this study is also aligned and inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals SDG 1: No Poverty and SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.

Niniejszy artykuł opisuje rolę sztuki ulicznej w kontekście konkurencyjności i kreatywności miasta. Zbadano także postrzeganie sztuki ulicznej przez mieszkańców różnych miast pod kątem ich akceptacji, skojarzeń oraz wpływu na wizerunek i konkurencyjność miast. Na wybranych przykładach z Polski wskazano przejawy sztuki ulicznej jako determinantę kierunku zmian wizerunku architektury i układu urbanistycznego miasta. Całość rozważań osadzono w ramach przeglądu literatury, studium przypadku oraz badań ankietowych. Artykuł porusza zagadnienia miejskich artykulacji artystycznych i ich wpływu na wzrost poziomu partycypacji społecznej, wzrost kreatywności w przestrzeni publicznej oraz zwiększenie atrakcyjności i konkurencyjności miasta. Prezentując liczne przykłady, wskazano na znaczenie sztuki ulicznej jako elementu wpływającego na popularność i atrakcyjność miasta. Ponadto przedstawiono sposób percepcji sztuki ulicznej wśród mieszkańców z uwzględnieniem ich miejsca zamieszkania pod względem liczby ludności. Zastosowane podejście interdyscyplinarne pozwoliło potwierdzić celowość wykorzystania działań artystów ulicznych w przestrzeni naszej egzystencji, w nadawaniu unikalnej tożsamości przestrzeniom miejskim, wpływając tym samym na konkurencyjność miast. Akceptacja i pozytywny odbiór sztuki ulicznej powinny uświadomić władzom miast, jak ważny może stać się ten nurt artystyczny z perspektywy zarządzania wizerunkiem miasta.

Published: March 2024

Thiacloprid is an insecticide of the neonicotinoid family that acts on the insect’s nAChR receptor and causes its paralysis and subsequent death. The genotoxicity of the insecticide Calypso® 480 SC (with the active substance thiacloprid) to human peripheral lymphocytes was examined in vitro by comet analysis and phosphorylated H2AX, where we detected DNA breaks. To detect DNA damage in comet analysis, we used thiacloprid-based insecticide in three different concentrations (60, 240, and 480 μg.ml−1) during 2 h of exposure. We recorded a statistically significant percentage of damage at a concentration of 240 and 480 μg.ml−1. We monitored the toxicity of thiacloprid using yH2AX foci, and we did not observe a statistically significant number of foci compared to the negative control.

Published: March 2024

Lungworm infections are known to be frequent and responsible for substantial economic losses in ruminants. They are caused by Dictyocaulus filaria and various species belonging to the Protostrongylidae family of nematodes. This present study was conducted at the Tiaret municipal slaughterhouse and the parasitology laboratory of the veterinary institute for six months, from November 2016 to April 2017. The study aimed to evaluate the occurrence of lungworm infections and the determination of the circulating species affecting sheep in the region with a pathological study of infected pulmonary tissue sections. The overall incidence of the pathology in sheep was 26 % (240/921). The identified species were Muellerius capillaris 43 %, Neostrongylus linearis 8 %, Cystocaulus ocreatus 4 %, Dictyocaulus filaria 3 %, Protostrongylus rufescens 1 %, and mixed infestations 42 %. The histological examination of corresponding lesions has revealed pneumonia-type, and bronchopneumonia, inflammatory lesions, with a predominance of mononuclear cells, necrosis of bronchial epithelium, and pulmonary parenchyma as well as hyperplasia of the bronchiolar epithelium. Prevention and control of these parasites is therefore essential for releasing the potential of sheep production.
