This paper is a comprehensive study of the problems of criminal law as a remedy for human rights and freedoms in the modern world. The relevance of this subject lies in the systematic violations of constitutional human rights and freedoms and the inaction of the criminal law in such cases. Nowadays, the criminal law as a remedy for human rights and freedoms in national and international law is described by imperfection in its adaptation to rapidly changing social relations, which, accordingly, leads to problems in their legal protection. There are various reasons for this in the legal sphere, such as gaps in the legal provisions, conflicts of legal regulation and inconsistency of the rules of legislation with existing public relations in the state. All of the above determines the relevance of the subject matter of this study. Thus, the purpose of this study was a comprehensive analysis of theoretical and applied issues relating to the remedies for human rights and legitimate interests against socially dangerous encroachments, and the formulation of scientifically sound proposals for improving the current legislation of Ukraine and the practice of its application in this area. Ultimately, this study identified the legal characteristics of human rights and freedoms at both the national and international levels. The remedies for rights were demonstrated through the lens of criminal law. In addition, the study analysed the forms of implementation of international practice in the national legislation of Ukraine as a remedy for human rights and freedoms in the modern world. The significance of the results of this study was expressed in the further research of related subjects concerning this issue, namely the history of the development of EU criminal law standards and the historical establishment of the concept of human and citizen rights and legitimate interests. Furthermore, the materials of this study can be used in the preparation of educational materials, methodological recommendations, as well as training in various fields of legal science. This, in turn, will allow properly using the criminal law protection of human rights and freedoms without violations on the part of criminal justice bodies

The article investigates constitutional legal relations and state legal relations as legal relations united by the common subject of legal regulation and different in purposes and methods of legal regulation. Constitutional legal relations are considered as relations aimed at building the rule of law state, recognition, observance and protection of human rights and freedoms. State-legal relations are aimed primarily at the implementation of public interests. The author concludes that the result of formation of legal relations is significantly influenced by the applied methods of legal regulation. Constitutional legal relations are formed on the basis of the application of such methods as: 1) restriction of interference of public authorities in regulation of human rights and freedoms; 2) self-regulation on issues of own competence of constituent entities of the Russian Federation and bodies of local self-government; 3) the contractual method of regulation on matters falling within the joint competence; 4) delegation of exclusive powers to the lower level of public authority. State-legal relations differ due to the application of the following methods: 1) detailed regulation and restriction of human rights and freedoms in order to realize public interests; 2) legislative delegation of powers on issues of joint jurisdiction; 3) redistribution of powers in favor of the higher level of public authority.The development of constitutional and state-legal relations in modern legal reality is possible only in the context of competition of applied methods of legal regulation. The constitutional norm enforced mainly by state-legal methods is implemented in state-legal relations and excludes the construction of constitutional legal relations. The prevalence of state-legal methods can lead to the construction of pseudo-parallel constitutional legal relations, i.e. legal relations that do not affect the existing legal reality. On the contrary, the preferential application of constitutional and legal methods can be considered as a guarantee of impossibility of abuse of state legal methods in the process of enforcement of public interests.

Purpose. The aim of the article is to analyze the elements of resocialization of convicted persons, methods of influencing the process of formation of law-abiding behavior for life at large, as well as psychological and legal factors influencing the process of adaptation of convicted persons to lawful self- actualization at liberty. Methodology. The methodology includes a comprehensive analysis and generalization of available scientific and theoretical material and the formulation of relevant conclusions and recommendations. Such methods of scientific cognition as terminological, system-structural, dialectical, comparative, logical-normative, and logical-semantic were used during the research. Results. In the course of the research, it is stated that resocialization of convicted persons is a continuous process aimed at the conscious restoration of the convict in the social status of a full member of society, which is hindered by socio-psychological deviations of legal awareness of the convict and society, the immediate environment of the person serving sentences. Resocialization of convicted persons should take place based on the respect for human rights and freedoms, in accordance with the principles of human dignity, as well as domestic and international normative and legal acts. Scientific novelty. In the course of the research, it is established that a full-fledged, effective process of resocialization should be aimed at correcting the distorted legal consciousness, lawful social and normative formation of a person in society, as well as preventing the negative consequences of forced isolation from society. Practical significance. The results of the study can be used in law-making to improve the current legislation and bring it closer to European standards in order to enrich the universal values that constitute the content of the requirements of natural law, as well as to increase the effectiveness of legal regulation of public relations through the enshrinement of guarantees for the implementation, provision and protection of human rights and freedoms in the current legislation.

The article examines the role of legal communication in ensuring human rights. It is noted that the study of legal communication in the modern information space forms a modern postclassical legal understanding, which is focused on ensuring the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens. Legal communication acts as a means of ensuring dialogue between the state and citizens, as a regulatory and socio-constructive factor of social development. According to recent research, the doctrine of human rights is developing on the basis of an interdisciplinary approach to such sciences as philosophy, theory and history of state and law, political science, linguistics, information theory and more. The introduction of information and communication technologies in all spheres of society presupposes the study of the communicative properties of law, in particular legal communication. Given the increased attention to the problems of the effectiveness of law, the definition of its functional purpose, there is a need to study the role of legal communication in ensuring human rights. Human rights are a common value of civil society and the state, they determine their relationship, and ensuring the implementation and protection of human rights is their common task. A manifestation of such interaction is the legal communication between the state and civil society. The study of legal communication in the modern information space forms a modern postclassical legal understanding, which is focused on ensuring the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens. The renewal of legal relations, first of all between the state and society, requires scientific substantiation and introduction of new forms of communication. Legal communication in this case acts as a means of ensuring dialogue between the state and citizens, as a regulatory and socio-constructive factor of social development. At the stage of transition to the information and legal society, the relationship between legal communication and legal regulation changes. Legal communication acquires an independent meaning in relation to legal regulation, which itself becomes a system, a derivative element of legal communication. Іt is proved that legal communication contributes to the formation of legal values in the modern information space, a positive perception of law, the formation of the legal consciousness of the subjects of communication, the improvement of the legal mechanism for the protection of human rights. Legal communication acquires an independent meaning in relation to legal regulation, which itself becomes a system, a derivative element of legal communication. The effectiveness of legal communication in ensuring human rights is ensured by observance of the principles of the rule of law, legality, publicity, democracy, and universality. Keywords: human rights, legal communication, information society, information security.
