The peculiarities of the influence of civil society on the state regulation of law enforcement activities within the member states of the European Union are considered. A thorough analysis of regulatory and legal support and mechanisms for the practical implementation of active cooperation between civil society and law enforcement agencies of the European Union (Belgium, Great Britain, Germany, Poland, Finland, France, Hungary). Possibilities of wide involvement of civil society representatives in law enforcement activities using various forms and methods within the member states of the European Union are considered. It has been proven that the opinion of civil society on the functioning of the law enforcement system is one of the key factors in strengthening ties and improving the interaction of the above structures with representatives of the public sector, including individual citizens or NGOs. It is substantiated that using the most successful forms and methods of law enforcement, provided they adapt to the conditions of our country, it is possible to ensure more effective implementation of law enforcement. It is emphasized that important factors in the development of cooperation between law enforcement agencies and civil society on the basis of cooperation should be the formation of motivation and a functioning system of incentives for civil society. It is noted that, in order to fully implement the functions of law enforcement and crime prevention, it is necessary to directly influence the representatives of civil society on law enforcement activities by increasing the level of public, social and legal activity.

The article considers the peculiarities of the introduction of high moral aspects of the political and social system of the European Union in the national system of public influence on the activities of law enforcement agencies. It is established that the implementation of legislative norms and provisions of the European Union in the legal system of Ukraine is the basis of the European course and further effective application of the principles of state regulation of law enforcement. It is substantiated that the activity of the police is subject to clear regulation both in the member states of the European Union and in Ukraine. Therefore, the organizational and legal support of public authorities in determining the procedure for recruitment, dismissal, receiving incentives for professional tasks corresponds to the principles of civil society. The public and its influence on law enforcement are correlated with law-centrism. It is noted that the influence of the community on the activities of law enforcement agencies is identified with respect for legal norms and regulatory framework. It is emphasized that decentralization, which is being introduced in the member states of the European Union, aims at equal distribution of powers between police bodies and, as a consequence, improvement of public law enforcement communication. In Ukraine, on the other hand, there are similar transformations in the legal framework of civil society cooperation with the police: the idea of decentralization corresponds to the Euro-Atlantic course, which is the guiding one, in the context of shaping state policy for Ukraine. It is pointed out that the process of perception by the police and structural units of law enforcement agencies of the European Union member states of the influence of civil society on the style of their functioning is a process of democratization of the socio-political system.

Procedural law can be defined as a set (system) of legal norms, governing the procedure, the form of jurisdictional law enforcement activities of the competent state bodies on officials, aimed at the implementation of the norms of various branches of substantive law. Law enforcement in procedural law is carried out with the assistance of law enforcement agencies. The activities of the state and its bodies cover many areas of state and public life.

The article focuses on the problem of the institutional support for combating corruption. The scatter and dispersion in the anti-corruption functions among the law enforcement agencies are considered to be a significant component of the problem of the institutional support for combating corruption. The functioning of some specialized anti-corruption agencies is also analyzed in the article. Priority areas for improvement of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office and National Anti-Corruption Burea of Ukraine are singled out. It is justified that the functioning of The Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office is a special law enforcement activity to combat corruption in public authorities and local self-government. It is concluded that due to the possibility of ambiguous insight into the system of agencies implementing measures on preventing and combating corruption, the legislation should clearly define this notion in a single legal act with a clear division of responsibilities and forms of interaction, as well. Furthermore, the authors of the article develop proposals on ways to combat corruption in Ukraine, including legislative, and organizational and managerial ideas concerning the implementation of the experience in preventing and combating corruption following the example of foreign countries. In particular, the main priorities of the state anti-corruption policy in Ukraine should be defined in a special regulation – the Anti-Corruption Strategy. The previous Anti-Corruption Strategy and the State Program for its implementation expired in December 2017, so Ukraine should have started the year 2018 with new versions of these documents. For more than two years, Ukraine has not had a major strategic document in the field of corruption prevention. The draft Law on Anti-Corruption Strategy for 2018–2020 was withdrawn on August 29, 2019.

The results of the study, aimed at revealing the legal framework for ensuring human rights and freedoms as a basis for the activity of law enforcement agencies of Ukraine, and highlighting the role of the National Police in ensuring human rights and freedoms, are presented. The scientific novelty of the study is that, based on the study of international and national regulatory legislation, the essence of the leading definitions related to the protection of human rights and freedoms is specified: «rights, freedoms», «human and citizen's rights», «protected features», «intersectionality», «law enforcement agencies», differentiated the concept of «rights» and «freedom», revealed the specifics of human and citizen rights, systematically analyzed the legal basis of social and legal protection, defined the role of law enforcement agencies, of the National Police of Ukraine in the Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms, outlined ways to increase the effectiveness of law enforcement agencies in ensuring social stability in society. It is established that an in-depth understanding of the essence of human and citizen's rights and freedoms ensures adherence to the democratic course of development of the state, selection of such forms and directions of activity of its human rights bodies and institutions, which ensure the implementation of the principle of guaranteeing the security of a person, which was enshrined in many international documents, received its further development of national legislation. Based on the study of specific regulations, the concept of «protected features» – the characteristics of a person under which there can be no privileges or restrictions in the society (race, color, political, religious and other beliefs, gender, ethnic and social background, property status, place) residence, linguistic or other features), and intersectionality – the totality or inter­section of these features in the context of considering the circumstances of a particular person's life. On this basis, the essence of human rights and freedoms as a general orientation of the state and all its institutions on the equality and fair distribution of public goods and resources is substantiated. It is emphasized that among the state bodies, which are obliged to take measures to ensure the constitutional rights and freedoms of citizens, the National Police plays an important role, which, in comparison with other law enforcement agencies, addresses the most issues related to the protection of human rights and freedoms. It is determined that this human rights structure, unlike others, was created for direct contact with citizens, and therefore the quality of human rights services provided by the state can be directly assessed by each person from his or her own life experience. Accordingly, the public's perception of all other law enforcement activities depends on the quality and efficiency of the work of the National Police.

Israel is a democracy committed to the protection of human rights while at the same time trying to contain uniquely difficult national security concerns. One area where this tension is manifest is government access to communications data. On the one hand, subscriber privacy is a constitutional right protected by legislation and Supreme Court jurisprudence; on the other hand, communications data are a powerful tool in the hands of national security and law enforcement agencies. This chapter examines Israel’s attempt to balance these competing interests by empowering national security agencies while at the same time creating mechanisms of accountability. In particular, Israel utilizes the special independent status of the attorney general as a check on government power.
