In the modern world, sustainable development includes not only the transition to renewable energy sources, united by the concept of “green energy”, to on energy efficiency and resource conservation, but is already considered much more broadly, as the transition or restructuring to the “green economy”. It involves the development of adequate legal principles, regulatory methods, a new legal terminology, as well as the Concept of the development of “Green” law. The author poses this urgent task and substantiates the role of legal enforcement and support for the development of the “green economy”, which is especially important for Russia as a country is still at the starting point of transition. Otherwise, such countries will be threatened by environmental problems in the future against the backdrop of a loss in social economic and energy development.

The aim of the research is to analyse the energy transition in the Visegrad Group countries, because they depend on the production of energy from the burning of fossil fuels, and transition is a huge challenge for them. The diversity of the energy transformation in the V4 countries was examined by using two qualitative methods, including literature analysis and comparative analysis. The timeframe of the study was set for the period from 2020 to 2030, as these years are crucial for the implementation of the European Green Deal Programme. Four diagnostic features were taken into account in the analysis: the share of RES in final energy consumption, reduction of CO2 emissions in the non-Emissions Trading System (ETS) sector, date of withdrawal of coal from the economy, and energy efficiency. The analysis shows that the V4 countries have different approaches and levels of energy transformation in their economies. Poland is in the most difficult situation, being the most dependent on the production of electricity from coal, as well as having the largest number of employees in the coal and around coal sector. The other countries of the group can base their transformation on nuclear energy, as each of them has at least four such power units. The increased use of biomass for energy and heat production is the most important stimulus for Renewable Energy Sources (RES) growth in the analysed countries. The ambivalent attitude of the political elite to unconventional sources in the four analysed countries significantly hinders the development of certain forms of green energy. However, it has been observed that an increasing proportion of the population, especially those living in regions of the country where there is no fossil fuel mining industry, has a positive attitude towards energy transformation. The study is the first that shows the state of involvement in the process of systemic change of the Visegrad Group countries. The results can serve as a starting point for understanding the reticence of this group of European countries towards the transformation phenomenon, as well as contributing to further research on the implementation of closed-circuit economies in the Visegrad Group countries.

The article examines topical problems of the role of international organizations in the direction of the development of alternative energy and strengthening of energy security in the world. Considerable attention is paid to the importance of the introduction and development of alternative energy in the context of ensuring environmental human rights and economic well-being. Analyzed the main international legal treaties regulating the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere and the use of alternative renewable energy sources. The main international governmental and non-governmental organizations in the direction of ensuring environmental and energy security have been identified. Attention is drawn to the need to strengthen the role of these organizations by strengthening the functions of supervision and monitoring to increase the possibility of influencing states that do not comply with the provisions of signed and ratified international conventions. It is concluded that it is necessary to adjust the vector of development of instruments for the protection of environmental rights in the direction of its world globalization. The existing global concept for the development of alternative energy sources requires changes. Given that the environmental problem is universal and, although to one degree or another, it still affects every person, regardless of country or nationality, the obligation to protect the environment must be universal, fulfilled and enforced not only by the government bodies of sovereign states, but also international government organizations. It is noted that the programs and recommendations of international organizations are developed directly for individual states, taking into account their geographical and economic location when choosing the types and methods of developing alternative energy.

Climate change has determined the deterioration of the ecosystem, but some politicians deny this evidence. There is a relationship between sustainability and resilience, and COVID-19 has demonstrated that life can change quickly. Social and economic disaster share a close bond. Can the realization of a great plan for infrastructure support the planet’s rebirth? This is the key role of the green economy.

The state and prospects of small hydropower development in the context of rationalization of the use of available natural resource potential of Ukraine were considered. It was established that due to insignificant specific weight in the general energy balance, small hydropower cannot significantly affect the structure of energy supply of the country. Attention was drawn to the fact that the adopted State Target Economic Program for Energy Efficiency and the Development of Energy Saving for Renewable Energy Sources and Alternative Fuels for 2010-2020 will promote the use of the potential of small rivers and the development of hydropower. It was noted that the conducted calculations for the future with the help of correlation analysis of installed capacities and production of electricity by small hydropower objects showed that in 2020, at the current rate of development of small hydropower, the planned indicators will not be achieved. The legal principles of functioning of the market of electric energy and formation of relations connected with the development of small hydropower, which are regulated by the Laws of Ukraine and other legislative acts in the field of fuel and energy complex were described.

The relevance of this study is due to the fact that in the modern world, including Russian, law and order, a special mechanism of “anti-crisis regulation” is being transformed, which in the context of a pandemic has be-come heterogeneous, with a permanent convergence of the norms of private and public law. Proceeding from the fact that anti-crisis regulation is pre-dominantly part of the state policy in a particular area, it is proposed to un-derstand that the epidemiological crisis itself is the starting point for other crisis phenomena (financial, demographic and other crises), the prevention or reduction of the impact of which is the most important task of any state. We consider the relevant aspects of crisis management. We analyze the catego-ries of countercyclical and pro-cyclical regulation, investigated the issues of fiscal policy. We pay attention to behavioral economics and the role of the state in its functioning. We note that the directions of spending budget funds in one way or another depend on the behavioral economy, which is not al-ways manageable. We provide an analysis of the concept of “choice architecture” in the aspect of a “push” decision-making mechanism, in which a special role is assigned to the state. We emphasize the growing importance of financial programs to support small businesses or citizens wishing to become individual entrepreneurs, self-employed.

Based on various sources, this article attempts to determine the scope and nature of the relationship between the Russian Orthodox Church and the Secret Chancellery during the reforms of Peter I. The chronological framework of the period under study is limited to 1718–1725. It should be noted that the number of works on this topic is rather small. The article dwells on the various aspects and forms of the relationship between the penal body and the Church as a whole. The starting point is the case of Tsarevich Alexei, which exposed the dissatisfaction of the clergy with the reforms of Peter I and initiated the strengthening of punitive policies, involving the tools of the Church. According to the author, the established relationship between the Church and the Secret Chancellery cannot be called sporadic, since there had been a certain unity of mutual interests between the parties. It is emphasized that contradictions had been accumulating between them, related to the violation of the secrecy of confession, lack of legal regulation of official relations, and structural vagueness of the institutions of the Most Holy Synod that had contacts with the Secret Chancellery. Nevertheless, in practice there had been developed a certain procedure for coordinating various issues, which both sides refrained from violating. Further, the author analyses the case of Tsarevich Alexei and the role of the first chief procurators of the Most Holy Synod in the context of the development of the relationship between the Church and the Secret Chancellery. Further, the article indicates the reasons for not only mutual interest, but also the subsequent crisis in their relationship that occurred in 1725. The author concludes that the relationship between the Russian Orthodox Church and the Secret Chancellery was in line with the policy of forming a police state.

The article examines the place and role of the Constitutional Court in the system of public powers in the doctrinal understanding of the concept of human rights and constitutionalism. The Constitution of the Russian Federation establishes the basic constitutional and legal principles that are fundamental to substantive and procedural law. Judicial constitutional review, as the experience of European countries shows, is the most effective in protecting the Constitution. The principles of law applied to the doctrinal assessment of the place and role of the Constitutional Court in the system of public powers constitute a rather dynamic legal concept. The methodology is based on the legal system, public relations, and the political-state course, which, like all fundamental ideas, change, affect legal awareness and establish new requirements for legal regulation and the formation of an appropriate mechanism. The article concludes that the most important condition for the implementation of the prerogatives of the judiciary to administer justice in the consideration and resolution of specific cases, with emphasis on the study and evaluation of evidence. It is the evidence that serves as the basis of information for the court's findings in the case.

A megújuló energiatermelés szerepének erősödését figyelhetjük meg az utóbbi években, évtizedekben. A zöldenergiák iránti igényt három fő motivátorcsoporttal lehet indokolni: ellátásbiztonság növelése, környezetvédelem és gazdaságélénkítés. Ezek a szempontok együttesen a fenntartható fejlődést szolgálják, és egyre inkább előtérbe kerülnek mind az EU, mind pedig hazánk szintjén. Magyarország 2010 végén az EU által előírt, 2020-ra elérendő 13%-os megújuló energiaarányt meghaladó, 14,65%-os vállalást tett a Nemzeti Cselekvési Tervben, ezzel is kifejezve elköteleződését a zöldenergiák ösztönzése felé. A jelenlegi kapacitások több mint megkétszerezését igénylő cél a hazai megújuló energiaszektor számára érdemi lehetőségeket jelent, de ezek megvalósításához szükség lenne az ígért új zöldenergia-támogatási rendszer, mielőbbi életbe lépésére. ____ The role of the renewable energy generation is getting even bigger and bigger in the last years, decades. The demand for the green energy has three main motivators: energy security, protecting the environment and fostering innovation. These goals serve the conception of sustainable development, and their function is increasingly highlighted in the EU and in Hungary as well. The EU has prescribed Hungary to reach a 13% share of renewable energy sources in 2020, but in the Hungarian national renewable action plan we have aimed to top the EU request, and to reach a 14,65% in the renewable proportion. This shows that our country is committed to inspire the renewables. In order to reach this goal, Hungary has to more than double its green power plant capacity, which means great possibilities in the sector; but at the same time means challenges as well, because the new renewable promoting system needs to come into force as soon as possible.

Pencabutan Pasal 67 ayat (2) huruf g pada Undang-Undang Nomor 11 Tahun 2006 oleh Mahkamah Konstitusi Nomor 51/Puu-Xiv/2016 menyangkut pembatasan hak mantan narapidana untuk mencalonkan diri dalam pemilihan kepala daerah tentu akan berpengaruh pada undang-undang lain. Baik undang-undang yang sudah ada maupun yang akan dibentuk karena berkaitan dengan sifat final dan mengikat pada putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi. Tahun 2017 muncul undang-undang baru yang memuat kembali pembatasan hak mantan narapidana yaitu Undang-undang Nomor 7 Tahun 2017. Sehingga menarik diteliti kedudukan putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi dalam sistem hukum nasional? dan apakah kekuatan putusan Mahkamah Konstistusi bisa mempengaruhi perundang-undangan lain secara keseluruhan?. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji kedudukan putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi dalam sistem hukum nasional dan pengaruh kekuatan putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi terhadap perundang-undangan. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian hukum yuridis normatif. Penelitian yang mencakup asas-asas hukum, sistematika hukum dan taraf sinkronisasi hukum. Sumber data yang digunakan diperoleh dari penelitian perpustakaan serta informasi dari para ahli akan dianalisis dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan dan pendekatan kasus. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi merupakan aturan yang memiliki peranan setingkat dengan perundang-undangan untuk dilaksanakan. Putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi jelas mampu mempengaruhi semua undang-undang, sehingga undang-undang yang memuat prihal yang sama dipastikan tidak memiliki kepastian hukum. Disarankan adanya suatu aturan hukum yang mempertegas teknis implementasi putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi dalam peraturan perundang-undangan dan tersedianya suatu wadah pengujian kembali terhadap putusan Mahkamah Konstitusi.The revocation of Article 67 paragraph (2) letter g in Law No. 11 of 2006 by the Constitutional Court No. 51 / Puu-Xiv / 2016 concerning restrictions on the rights of former prisoners (ex-convicts) to involve themselves to be the candidate for local election will certainly affect other laws, both the existing laws and laws that will be formed, because they are related to the final and binding characteristic on the decisions of Constitutional Court. In 2017, new law emerged which restated about the restrictions on the rights of former prisoners, namely Law No. 7 of 2017. Thus, it is interesting to investigate the position of the Constitutional Court decision in the national legal system? And whether the power of the Constitutional Court’s decision could influence other legislations as a whole or not? This study aims to examine the position of the Constitutional Court decision in the national legal system and the influence of the power of Constitutional Court decision towards the legislation. This study is conducted by using legal research methods of normative juridical. This research covers legal principles, legal systematic and level of legal synchronization. The source of data used in this research is obtained through library research and information from the experts will be analyzed by legislative approach and case approach. The results of this research indicate that the constitutional court decision is a rule that has the same level as the role of legislation to be implemented. The decision of the Constitutional Court is clearly capable of influencing all laws, so that the law that contains the same subject is certain to have no legal certainty. It is suggested that there should be a legal regulation that reinforces the technical implementation of the Constitutional Court Decision in legislation and the availability of a place for re-testing towards the decisions of Constitutional Court.
