The rule of law is one of the basic principles upon which the European Union is founded. According to the Court of Justice this principle assumes that neither the institutions of the Union nor its Member States can avoid a review of the question whether the measures adopted by them are in conformity with the basic constitutional charter, the Treaty. With that respect the Treaty established a complete system of legal remedies and procedures designed to permit the Court of Justice to review the legality of measures adopted by the institutions. The Judicial system of the European Communities, as one of the three pillars of the Union, is based on the original concept, which provides for cooperation between the Court of Justice and the national courts. The main task of the Court of Justice, entrusted by the Treaty, is to ensure that in the interpretation and application of the Treaty the law is observed.

The article reveals the role of the judiciary in the context of ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms in terms of practical approach. It was found that ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms in Ukraine is regulated by the Constitution of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine «On the Commissioner for Human Rights of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine» and the Law of Ukraine «On Citizens' Appeals». It is established that in Ukraine judicial protection is enshrined in the Constitution of Ukraine, in particular in Article 55, according to which the rights and freedoms of man and citizen in particular are protected by the court. It is proved that the functioning of the constitutional mechanism for the protection of human rights and freedoms can occur only if the state actively participates in ensuring such rights and freedoms. It is determined that an important component of subjective human rights is the right to judicial protection, which should be realized not only in the direct dimension, but also through the activities of state bodies or bodies or organizations authorized by the state. It is established that the concept of «protection» from the standpoint of the legal aspect is interpreted as a legal obligation of the state in the face of bodies, organizations or officials authorized by it, and as the ability of a person to exercise personal subjective right. It was clarified that the concept of «protection of human rights and freedoms» should be interpreted as a set of measures of organizational and legal nature to ensure legal protection or remove obstacles that arise in the context of the exercise of subjective rights and rights to restore such rights, if they were violated with the application of measures on this basis in the form of punishment of the offenders. It is proposed under the mechanism of protection of human and civil rights and freedoms, in particular, to define a holistic, legally enshrined and at the same time dynamic system, which includes subjects, objects, methods and means of protection of human and civil rights and freedoms. to neutralize illegal obstacles, as well as to prevent the emergence of new obstacles. It is proved that the mechanism of protection of human and civil rights and freedoms in particular should consist of institutional and functional systems. It is noted that the prospects for further research in this area are to determine the requirements for the incompatibility of the position of a judge with other activities in a comparative constitutional and legal aspect.

Standing before court is one of the preconditions for admissibility of application, which is to be evaluated by a judge in every administrative case. The article proposes to look at this aspect of the national procedural law on a broader scale. Firstly, the article provides an insight as to how two fundamental models of standing vested by the administrative law have developed in the law of continental Europe – interest-based, which is embodied by France, and rights-based, which is embodied by Germany, and how they have influenced development of the standing in other countries. Secondly, the article explores an interaction between the national law of standing and the European Union law, focusing on the effect of the principle of effective judicial protection in respect of standing of individuals before the national courts.

This chapter examines justice in an absolute sense, and also justice in the context of the criminal justice system. The criminal justice system is the set of rules and practices under which government institutions and agencies act in order to prevent or control crime, to deal with those who break the law, and to support victims. ‘Justice’ in the context of ‘criminal justice’ refers to the extent to which the system aims to prevent or reduce offending; ensures that those who are accused, convicted, and sentenced are treated fairly (justly); and works to support victims and communities. Justice should be guaranteed by the law, especially the criminal law, in any state and should be clearly present in all decisions about crime and social issues made by those working for the state. As such, justice is core to almost every aspect of the criminal justice system. The chapter also considers broad definitions of justice; frameworks called criminal justice models on which understandings of justice in the criminal justice system can be anchored; philosophical ideas about the concept of justice; and the main systems used to bring about criminal justice.

The relevance of the article is that to obtain the status of mandatory for implementation, these conceptual provisions must be enshrined in the relevant regulations. Therefore, in order to increase the effectiveness of the criminological policy of the state in the activities of individual bodies of criminal justice, it is necessary to search for ways to improve the legislative mechanism of its implementation. The purpose of the article is to find legislative steps to improve the implementation of criminological policy of the state in the activities of individual bodies of criminal justice. Some legislative steps to increase the effectiveness of the implementation of criminological policy of the state in the activities of certain bodies of criminal justice. The search for legislative steps to increase the effectiveness of the implementation of criminological policy of the state in the activities of certain bodies of criminal justice. It is concluded that in the current CPC of Ukraine there are no direct rules authorizing the criminal justice authorities to prevent activities. First of all, it concerns the identification of the causes and conditions that contribute to the commission of criminal offenses and the taking of measures within their competence to eliminate them. That is, investigators and investigators have the power to identify and eliminate the causes and conditions of crime, according to the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police", and the mechanism for exercising this power, which should be contained in the CPC of Ukraine, is absent. To increase the effectiveness of the implementation of criminological policy of the state it is advisable, in particular: in Article 1, Part 2 of Article 9, para. 3 part 1 of Art. 22 of the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police" to replace the phrase "combating crime" with "crime prevention". In addition, in Article 2 of the same Law, one of the tasks of the police, instead of "combating crime", it is desirable to define "crime prevention"; The Law of Ukraine “On the Security Service of Ukraine” should be supplemented with guarantees regarding non-interference in the activities of SBU employees as follows: “Any written or oral instructions, requirements, instructions, etc. addressed to the Security Service of Ukraine or its employees proceedings and not provided for by the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, are illegal and not enforceable. In case of receiving such instructions, requirements, instructions, etc., the employee of the Security Service of Ukraine shall immediately inform the head of the Security Service of Ukraine in writing".
