Published: December 2023

Zakat is a means to alleviate poverty by assisting those in greater need. To facilitate the distribution of zakat to eligible recipients, the role of Zakat Management Organizations (OPZ) is required. OPZ plays a role in collecting and distributing wealth from the muzakki (those who give zakat) to those who are entitled to receive it. According to Law No. 23 of 2011 on zakat management, zakat management organizations consist of two types: the National Zakat Amil Body (BAZNAS at the provincial and district levels, as well as UPZ) established by the government, and Zakat Amil Institutions established by the community, such as LAZISMu, LAZISNU, Dompet Dhuafa, Yatim Mandiri, Rumah Zakat, and Baitul Maal Hidayatullah (BMH). The purpose of this research is to understand the zakat governance in LAZISNU Kediri district, using a case study research methodology with informants. Data collection is derived from documentation, archive records, interview results, direct observations, observations of participants, and other physical devices. Structured interviews were conducted to obtain data in line with the Zakat Core Principles (ZCP). The research findings indicate that some informants express satisfaction with the zakat governance that has been implemented in accordance with the Zakat Core Principles. This can be seen in how they oversee, manage systems, governance, and administration in the institution. All activities related to zakat governance in LAZISNU Kediri district are directly monitored and supervised by central authorities.

Published: December 2023

This research investigates the mathematical understanding of fourth-grade students on plane materials using interactive multimedia. Qualitative methods and a descriptive approach are applied to students at MI Ar Rahmah, Bengle Village, Majalaya, during the academic year 2020/2021. Sampling and mathematical comprehension tests are conducted on rectangular and triangular plane materials. The results reveal three levels of understanding: high (47%), medium (21%), and low (32%). The analysis shows that high and medium-level students fulfill indicators with errors, while low-level students only meet the concept application indicator. Student interviews uncover difficulties in grasping concepts, including recognizing objects and modeling mathematical statements. Hence, improved teaching methods are needed to enhance students' mathematical understanding, particularly in plane materials. Further research is recommended to explore effective strategies for reducing mathematical anxiety and enhancing students' conceptual understanding.

Published: December 2023

Establishing a crucial connection between religious practices and mathematics is essential for comprehending the regularity and temporal discipline inherent in fulfilling religious duties, notably observed in traditional tools like bencet for determining prayer times. This qualitative ethnographic study aims to unveil the mathematical concepts involved in using and crafting bencet. This exploration of bencet represents the first-ever study in the history of ethnomathematics. Data analysis using the Miles and Huberman model reveals that the community's unconscious use of bencet tongkat demonstrates mathematical concepts, particularly in parallel lines, measurements, and the need for flat sides. Meanwhile, crafting bencet garis showcases the community's unconscious understanding of mathematical concepts related to parallel lines, perpendicular lines, the use of circles for  angles, and measurements. These findings expand our understanding of cultural values and local wisdom, demonstrating their relevance to mathematical concepts. Furthermore, the study provides recommendations for future research, suggesting an exploration of ethnomathematics as an innovative alternative approach to learning.

Published: December 2023

Currently, the Russian academic and publishing communities are witnesses and participants of significant changes in access to scientific information, the system of bibliometric assessment, and scientific communication. Despite some successful initiatives of the Russian academic journals, government structures for scientific and technical information, as well as commercial companies in changing one resources with others, development of new system of bibliometric evaluation and development of novel information services, it seems unreasonable to give up significant achievements of the last decades. Particularly, it is important to maintain the level of visibility and increase the quality of Russian academic journals in Web of Science Core Collection, although submission of new titles is now suspended. Due to the highest authority and wide use of this system worldwide, maintaining the proper level of visibility of the Russian journals in Web of Science database is believed to be a priority task. The paper discusses current problems concerning evaluation of representation of Russian academic serials in Journal Citation Reports and certain articles in Web of Science Core Collection in the light of lack of access to full-function versions of these databases. Updated list of Russian journals indexed in Journal Citation Reports / Web of Science as of 2023 is prepared.

Authors: Andrusiak I.P.
Published: December 2023

The article analyzes the essence of the principles of legal policy in the field of prevention and countermeasures against domestic violence and distinguishes their groups.

It is posited that the principles of legal policy in the field of domestic violence are the main normative principles and strategies that determine approaches to the creation, implementation and improvement of legal and political instruments for the prevention and counteraction of violence that occurs in the family, family environment, within the limits of the place of residence or between other persons living together as a family.

It is indicated that the study of the principles of legal policy allows for the development of effective strategies for preventing and countering this phenomenon, in particular, the development of basic principles and norms that should be the basis of legal regulation in the field of domestic violence, the rights and obligations of all parties, a system for detecting illegal phenomena, and as well as victim protection mechanisms. General and special groups of principles are distinguished.

The general principles reflect the universal policy of countering manifestations of any violence or aggression against persons in a democratic state, in particular the rule of law; the principle of inevitability of punishment; the principle of prevention and prevention of violence; the principle of effective response of law enforcement agencies.

Special principles include the following: the principle of zero tolerance for domestic violence, which consists in the inadmissibility of any form of violence, ensures the categorical non­admission of any manifestations of aggression, physical, psychological or economic pressure on family m.embers and persons equated to them; the principle of forming a gender-equal society, since the victims of violence are usually women and girls; the principle of systemic interaction of special bodies and institutions; the principle of involving civil society in preventing and countering domestic violence, in particular in the form of public condemnation; the principle of recognizing the social danger of domestic violence; the principle of a balanced approach in protecting the privacy and security of the family space; the principle of cultural sensitivity
Use of own technical equipment for participation in the court session outside the court in criminal proceedings
Authors: Barabash A.A.
Published: December 2023

The article examines the peculiarities of remote court proceedings in the criminal process of Ukraine. In view of the fact that in the criminal procedural legislation such concepts as «video conference» and «remote proceedings» are used to denote online participation in the court session, the definition of these definitions is provided in the work. The provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, which fix the procedure and features of the court's decision to conduct remote court proceedings, are analyzed, in particular, the issue of the court's discretion when making a decision to conduct a court session in video conference mode is analyzed. The judicial practice of considering motions to hold a court session in the mode of a video conference outside the court premises using its own technical means was studied. It is well-founded that the participants in the court proceedings, when making a request for a remote trial, and the court, when granting it, must cite not only the circumstances justifying the need to use a video conference, but also the evidence confirming the existence of one of the grounds provided for in Part 1 Art. 336 of the CCP of Ukraine. The publication draws attention to the latest changes in criminal procedural legislation regarding remote court proceedings under martial law. It is argued that remote participation in a court session using one's own technical means does not contradict the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, if the possibility of effective participation in court proceedings is ensured. It is substantiated that the Code of Criminal Procedure of Ukraine does not contain any restrictions regarding the premises from which a person can participate in a court session in the mode of video conference. It was stated that the broadcast during a video conference in a court session can be carried out from any other place using its own technical means, provided that the appropriate technical capability is available.
Formation and development of the idea of freedom as a principle of law
Authors: Gerich A.Yo. , Gerich A.V.
Published: December 2023

It is indicated that the extraordinary importance of the researched issue is also confirmed by the content of the Association Agreement between Ukraine, on the one hand, and the European Union, the European Atomic Energy Community and their member states, on the other hand, which enshrines the importance of joint management of freedom of movement (migration flows) between territories and a comprehensive dialogue on all issues in the field of migration, in particular illegal migration, legal migration, illegal transportation of persons across the state border and human trafficking, as well as the inclusion of problematic issues in the field of migration in the national strategies of economic and social development of the regions where migrants come from. The special importance of the problems of freedom of movement within the framework of migration control is also reflected in national legislation by the fact that, in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of Ukraine, the principles of regulation of demographic and migration processes, as well as the procedure for the formation and functioning of free and other special zones with economic or a migration regime different from the general one.

The authors note that the formation and development of the ideas of freedom as a principle of law is a constant process that reflects the challenges of different eras. The modern world requires not only the maintenance of these ideas, but also their active improvement in accordance with the new realities and progress of society. Ensuring freedom remains the main task for human rights defenders, legislators and citizens. Paying attention to new challenges, such as global problems, technological progress, socio-cultural transformations, allows improving existing concepts of freedom and adapting them to new conditions.

Joint efforts, effective international cooperation and mutual respect for human rights are key elements for the development of ideas of freedom. The global community should actively work on creating inclusive and effective human rights protection mechanisms at all levels.

In the light of the new challenges facing humanity, the preservation and development of the ideas of freedom become not only the task of legislators, but also a matter of public consciousness and the active participation of every member of society. Only a joint effort and a constant willingness to improve our understanding of freedom can ensure the permanence of this important principle of law in the present and future world.
On the Specifics of the Constitutional and Legal Status of Judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine
Authors: Bysaga Yu.M. , Berch V.V.
Published: December 2023

Judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine possess a distinct status that combines elements of functional purpose within an independent body of constitutional jurisdiction and an individual entity of judicial authority.

Emphasized is the constitutional and legal status of judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, which can be viewed from two different perspectives. Broadly speaking, it is a significant constitutional and legal institution encompassing various aspects: societal, professional (in terms of material and legal status), procedural, and administrative (linked to the governance of courts). On the other hand, a narrow approach to the constitutional and legal status of judges of the Constitutional Court defines it as a system of judges' powers and duties prescribed by the Constitution and laws of Ukraine.

It is noted that the procedure for the oath-taking by judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine differs from that of judges in general courts, highlighting their specificity: the oath signifies their solemn commitment to Ukraine, indicating the fulfillment of their constitutional functions within the state, rather than merely judicial activities in a general sense.

In summary, the constitutional and legal status of judges of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine constitutes a system of legislatively defined norms and rules that regulate their role in society and the process of exercising constitutional justice. On the other hand, this legal position officially acknowledges and legitimizes their role as judges of the Constitutional Court, encompassing all aspects related to the execution of constitutional control functions. The legislatively defined legal status of judges of the Constitutional Court determines their powers, duties, and rights concerning the exercise of constitutional jurisdiction, regulating the procedures by which judges of the Constitutional Court make decisions, provide official interpretations of the Constitution of Ukraine, and perform other functions prescribed by the Constitution and legislation. The established norms set standards of activity ensuring their objectivity, independence, and high professional responsibility in exercising constitutional jurisdiction. Within this normative system, the constitutional and legal status of judges of the Constitutional Court is fundamental to ensuring legal stability, protecting constitutional values, and upholding the fundamental principles of the rule of law in Ukraine.
Generalization of the grounds of unconstitutionality in the decisions of the body of constitutional jurisdiction: aspects of the constitutional complaint
Authors: Zharovska I.M.
Published: December 2023

The article summarizes the reasons for unconstitutionality in the decisions of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, including by analyzing the institution of a constitutional complaint.

It is motivated that the doctrine of consti­tutionality represents the idea of supremacy of the constitution over any other normative acts, excludes the possibility of adopting or applying norms that correspond to the Constitution. This principle is an advantage for ensuring the rule of law, observing legality and guaranteeing the rights and freedoms of citizens, and also serves as a mechanism for controlling the actions of the authorities and ensuring the stability and reliability of the legal system.

The essence of the principle of constitutionality is represented by the fact that all laws, regulations and actions of authorities must comply with the norms and principles enshrined in the country's constitution, since the latter is the main and important legal act that establishes the framework and principles of the functioning of the state, limiting the actions of the authorities and guaranteeing rights and freedoms of citizens.

Unconstitutionality is interpreted as a state of non-compliance with provisions, principles or norms established in the country's constitution. The important legal essence of recognizing such a phenomenon as unconstitutional is that such acts may be annulled, lose their validity, or require changes to comply with constitutional norms. It is indicated that the concept of unconstitutionality is important for ensuring compliance and protection of the principles and norms enshrined in the constitution and guarantees the hierarchical status of the legal system in a democratic state.

The grounds used by the Constitutional Court of Ukraine to recognize the unconstitutionality of some provisions of normative legal acts in cases of constitutional complaints are summarized: unjustified deprivation (restriction) of a certain constitutional right; violation of the principle of the rule of law, especially in the context of the lack of legal certainty in the norms of the law.

It is indicated that the principle of the rule of law imposes obligations on the law-making body to establish clear, understandable, unambiguous and provide for legal regulation of social relations, which is key in ensuring the stable legal position of each person and in order to avoid renouncing the obligations assumed by the state.
Features of the application of the constitutional term-concept "court" to the body of constitutional jurisdiction of Ukraine
Authors: Medvid A.B. , Medvid Y.O.
Published: December 2023

Article examines the legal meaning of the term­concept "Court" as used in the provisions of the Constitution of Ukraine and special legislative acts and analyzes the peculiarities of its application to the Constitutional Court of Ukraine as the domestic body of constitutional jurisdiction. In this context, previous editions and current provisions of the Constitution of Ukraine, relevant decisions of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine regarding the official interpretation of the specified constitutional norms, as well as provisions of special legislative acts of Ukraine are analyzed in detail.

Based on the conducted research, it is concluded that a special term-concept "court” was formed in the constitutional and legal doctrine of Ukraine. It means a state body of judicial power, which is formed, reorganized and liquidated by law, is part of the unified system of the judicial system of Ukraine and administers justice on the principles of the rule of law and on the basis of the Constitution and laws of Ukraine, in accordance with judicial procedures defined by law, ensuring protection guaranteed by the Constitution and laws of the rights and freedoms of a person and a citizen of Ukraine, the rights and legitimate interests of legal entities, the interests of society and the state.

At the same time, the mandatory legal features of the concept of "court” in aggregate are: 1) the presence of the status of a body of state judicial power; 2) formation, reorganization and liquidation, exclusively according to the special legislative procedure established by paragraph 2 of Article 125 of the Constitution of Ukraine; 3) belonging to the unified judicial system of Ukraine, defined by the Constitution of Ukraine and the laws of Ukraine; 4) having the authority to administer justice, in accordance with the Constitution of Ukraine and the laws of Ukraine.

Therefore, it is worth asserting that the domestic constitutional-doctrinal special term-concept "court” can only conditionally (as an exception) be applied to the Constitutional Court of Ukraine, as the only domestic body of constitutional jurisdiction, which, according to the current norms of the Constitution of Ukraine, does not belong to a unified system the judicial system of the state and does not administer justice, but is fundamentally endowed with other special powers in order to ensure the supremacy of the Constitution of Ukraine.
Features of the imple¬mentation of the principle of the rule of law in the context of the contemporary challenges of democracy in the conditions of war in Ukraine
Authors: Pyvovar M. , Kira S.
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to the study of the peculiarities of the implementation of the principle of "rule of law” in the context of challenges of democracy under the conditions of martial law in Ukraine. The main force majeure decisions of state authorities are outlined within quantitative and chronological limits in the context of ensuring the coherence and continuity of the fulfillment assumed by them obligations, and with unconditional observance of the principle of the rule of law. The efforts of the native legislator to provide a formal definition of the definition of «rule of law» in comparison with its international counterpart, which is enshrined in the soft law documents of the Venice Commission, are separately analyzed.

The authors found out that despite the impressive percentage of implementation of the government's Plan of measures to implement the Association Agreement, in Ukraine, under the conditions of martial law, constitutional rights and human freedoms are temporarily restricted, including: the right to inviolability of housing, to freedom of movement, to freedom of thought and speech, to free expression of one's views and beliefs, rights and legitimate interests of legal entities, etc. At the same time, despite the real existence of the listed restrictions, the latter in no way refer to the limitation of absolute (natural) human rights and freedoms. In the conclusions to the article, it is justified and confirmed that the principle of the rule of law continues to apply even to those rights and freedoms that are limited.

In order to obtain reliable scientific results and introduce new information to the theory fund, this study used a set of scientific principles and approaches based on general scientific, worldview and special legal methods of cognition, in particular, it refers to such methods as: systemic, hermeneutic, historical - legal, functional and comparative. The empirical basis of the research was made up of national and international legal acts.

Authors: Bondar N.
Published: December 2023

The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of the provisions of the current civil legislation of France, Switzerland and Ukraine with a view to identifying a balanced approach to the appointment of persons who may act as guardians and trustees over adults with disabilities who have persistent mental illnesses and, as a result, are unable to realize the significance of their actions and control them. The need to conduct this study is caused by the presence of certain problematic issues in the domestic legislation of Ukraine and the obligations assumed by Ukraine as a state party, which signed and ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities on December 16, 2009. The UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities of 13.12.2006. Article 12 of the said Convention contains provisions on equality of all persons with disabilities before the law and their equal legal personality. Thus, the participating States are obliged to review and bring their domestic legislation in line with the requirements of the Convention in order to restore the optimal mechanism for persons with disabilities, including those with persistent mental illness, to exercise their legal capacity. Based on the analysis of the provisions of the current civil legislation of France, Switzerland and Ukraine, the author identifies differences in the approach to the appointment of guardians and trustees over adults. These include, in particular, the possibility of performing the powers of a guardian (trustee) not only on a private but also on a professional basis in Switzerland; appointment of a guardian exclusively of individuals, following the example of Switzerland or individuals and legal entities in France, but in the case of a legal entity, it cannot assign the powers of a guardian to the head of the institution where a person with a disability receives medical, educational or other services. This must be a separate structure within the said legal entity. This prohibition is intended to avoid the possibility of abuse of power by the heads of specialized institutions and violation of the rights of their wards.
The principle of the rule of law
Authors: Demchenko Y.O.
Published: December 2023

This publication attempts to explore the rule of law as one of the fundamental principles of a state that proclaims itself to be a state governed by the rule of law. The author defines such concepts as "rule of law”, "rule of law”, "democracy", "state power”, "legality". Attention is paid to the basic concepts (procedural (formal) and substantive (substantive)) of understanding the phenomenon of "rule of law” and to the distinction of this principle among other social and legal regulators which affect the organization of state power within the legal framework. The author highlights the principles and basic elements (clarity, stability, judicial control, etc.), characteristic properties of the rule of law (the way of "building” state power on a legal basis; manifestation of natural law, etc.)

The author presents a theoretical consideration of this principle in the field of organization of state power in society in broad ("rule of law over the state”) and narrow ("rule of law over the law”) aspects. The role and place of the rule of law as a legal value and the correlation of the Basic Law with the rule of law principle are clarified. In our country, this principle is proclaimed and operates as the basis of the constitutional order. The state should create reliable and favorable conditions for the implementation of the rule of law in all social relations, enshrine guarantees of its enforcement and a mechanism of legal protection in case of violation of this principle at the legislative level, as these are its priorities, since in a state governed by the rule of law, a person, his or her life, health, honor, dignity, rights and security are the highest values. Ensuring the protection of all these values should be the main goal of legal science and practice.

This paper also formulates conclusions that summarize the rule of law as a fundamental principle of the rule of law, its main features and components, and its importance and role for Ukraine as a country governed by the rule of law.

The article defines what xenoimplants are and their important place among modern methods of treatment by transplantation. It has been established that the development and functioning of the specified methodology requires the introduction of innovations and modern scientific and technical developments. In this regard, it is stated that the transplantation of xenoimplants is not regulated by legislation at the appropriate level, their legal status is not finally resolved, and what is regulated contains certain limitations. It has been proven that xenoimplants are objects of civil law and the legal regime of things can be applied to them. It was found that for the high-quality implementation of the latest technologies with the use of xenoimplants, it is necessary to attract investments. However, it has been established that the development of xenoimplants requires significant costs for research, clinical trials and production. The legal problems that an investor may face in the process of investing in such a technology as xenoimplants are analyzed. As a result of certain gaps in the legislation on transplantation, in particular, regarding the manufacture and use of xenoimplants, failure to regulate the distribution and status of animal material, failure to establish the rules for breeding animals whose materials will be used in the manufacture of xenoimplants, failure to define the medical and biological requirements that must be followed in the research activity, the lack of provisions that would regulate the conclusion of certain quality agreements that ensure compliance with standards at each stage, as well as not identifying and predicting certain risks for investors creates obstacles in the implementation of investment activities in the field of xenoimplants. It was determined that the regulation of the outlined issues by the legislation of Ukraine will solve many legal problems with attracting investments for the creation of xenoimplants and the possibility of their subsequent transplantation.
