Legal Concepts

The analysis of the researched scientific problems on counteraction to crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations, which are formed on an ethnic basis, now necessitates further research of ethnic crime in Ukraine and the world in general. Formation by the Ukrainian state of a multi-vector mechanism of counteraction to organized groups and criminal organizations, formed on an ethnic basis, is impossible without understanding the essence of this problem, relevant legal concepts and classification and identification of features of organized ethnic crime that are important for law enforcement and the state. The main effective factor in such activities is to guarantee the security of citizens and the integrity of the state from criminal encroachments of organized groups and criminal organizations that are formed on an ethnic basis. Thus, for the effective interaction of law enforcement agencies in combating crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations that are formed on an ethnic basis, a sound concept of such cooperation is needed, which is currently lacking. Accordingly, in the long run, such a concept needs to be adopted immediately, which will start streamlining law enforcement relations on the exchange and realization of information concerning the activities of both domestic criminal groups and organized criminal groups of foreign nationals or those formed on ethnic grounds. Theoretical principles of law enforcement interaction in combating crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations, which are formed on an ethnic basis by generalizing, analyzing and systematizing the concept of interaction, its forms, methods and types, are analyzed. An author's definition of the concept of interaction among police during counteraction to crimes, committed by organized groups and criminal organizations, formed on ethnic basi, is given

The article is devoted to the definition of criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies' interaction with financial institutions in countering the legalization of criminal proceeds. The urgency of the problem described in the article is due to the need to increase the effectiveness of counteracting the facts of money laundering, given the state of economic crime and the losses from its existence. The article clarifies the essence of such concepts as «criterion», «evaluation» and «efficiency». Attention is drawn to the fact that the effectiveness of the interaction can be judged based on the purpose of the interaction itself. It is stated that in evaluating efficiency, qualitative and quantitative indicators should be taken into account, while the latter in the form of statistics should be considered mainly as a source of information on the state of crime, the amount of work done, and not its results. The criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies' interaction with financial institutions in countering the legalization of criminal proceeds are: 1) reducing the proportion of latent crime; 2) state of information support; 3) the speed of response of financial institutions to the request of law enforcement agencies to provide certain information; 4) state of cooperation with other entities of the system of counteraction to the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from crime; 5) the number of indictments drawn up; 6) public opinion. It is concluded that the evaluation of the effectiveness of the interaction of these entities on the basis of the criteria we define will only be relevant if it is objective, of public importance, relevant to the purpose of the interacting entities.

The relevance of the article is that the creation of the National Police of Ukraine has become a radically new stage in reforming the law enforcement sector of our state. This central executive body was called not only to ensure the protection and observance of human and civil rights and freedoms, but also to increase the general level of public confidence in the state in general and its law enforcement sector in particular. At the same time, in carrying out their activities, the police implement a number of measures, among which a special place belongs to administrative coercion. The latter, in turn, emphasize the legal relationship between the state and the law enforcement system. Therefore, establishing the place, role and importance of the National Police in the system of law enforcement agencies of the state is of great importance for their proper functioning and efficiency. The article, based on the analysis of scientific views of scientists and the norms of current legislation, identifies the types of measures implemented by the National Police of Ukraine. The content of some measures is revealed. It is stated that in the system of measures implemented by the National Police, one of the key places is given to administrative coercion. The author's definition of the concept of administrative and coercive measures implemented by the National Police of Ukraine is proposed. It is determined that administrative-coercive police measures occupy the main place in the administrative activity of the police, as they provide, in particular: unimpeded preventive measures to prevent offenses; protection of human rights, freedoms and interests, citizens and public order and public safety; cessation of committed offenses; gathering evidence; identification and detention of the offender; bringing perpetrators to justice; restoration of justice in society, etc. Therefore, the more effective the measures of administrative coercion that can be used by the National Police of Ukraine, the better the fight against crime and the more effective the process of crime prevention.

The legislative provision of security in Ukraine, security of the person, society and the state from external and internal threats in the state as ensuring national security is studied. The urgency of the issue outlined in the paper is due to the ongoing reform processes in the field of national security and law enforcement in Ukraine. However, national security issues are still at the center of various scientific debates. In the research and analysis of the origins and development of the concept of “national security” hermeneutic, logical, linguistic and semiotic research methods are used. It is proved that in the legislation and legal literature this term has gained wide application and recognition that meets the general requirements of legal technique: the terms must be generally accepted, have a stable character and wide application. It is noted that the term “national security” still remains relevant and controversial.

The article is intended to formulate the author’s definition of the concept of the legal status of law enforcement agencies with the subsequent definition of its features. The urgency of the issue outlined in the article is due to the reform processes in the field of law enforcement in Ukraine. The article analyzes different opinions on the definition of «legal status» and «law enforcement agencies». Definitions and some features of law enforcement activity are also analyzed. Emphasis is placed on modern changes in socio- economic and political-legal conditions of law enforcement, the course of our state on European integration, which determine the constant need to reform the law enforcement system to ensure internal security, in accordance with modern social needs and capabilities of the state. It is noted that the country’s law enforcement agencies are key in the system of executive bodies and are a necessary condition for protecting the constitutional order, and ensuring law and order, respect for human and civil rights and freedoms and protection of internal security from internal threats. The structural distribution of the directions of the system of activity of law enforcement bodies is considered: ensuring the internal security of the state; activities for detection, prevention, prevention of crimes and offenses; activities for the protection of internal state security, state border and law enforcement; ensuring internal economic and information security. Each of these areas has its own characteristics that characterize a particular specificity of a body. It is concluded that different conceptual approaches to the legal status of law enforcement agencies in Ukraine are debatable. They can be used for further work towards the formation of a modern effective system of law enforcement, free from duplication of powers and parallelism, based on a modern understanding of their functioning, which is based on the priority of human rights and freedoms, respect for their honor and dignity, security and legal protection.
