Euthanasia is a voluntary withdrawal from the life of a person suffering from an incurable disease or having a disease that causes him physical and mental suffering. This practice has been used since the period of antiquity, when in Ancient Rome and Sparta, the elderly and the disabled were thrown from the mountains. The need for such a policy was explained by the inability of the state to support weak members in the conditions of regular military campaigns.  A similar position was supported by the Nazis of nazi Germany, who created gas chambers as an analogue of "easy death" for disabled citizens, which included people with mental disorders; people suffering from epilepsy; disabled people with any health abnormalities; patients who had been treated for more than 5 years. In addition to persons with various pathologies, representatives of Gypsy, Jewish, and Polish nationalities were included in the same group. It becomes obvious that in such a context, euthanasia is perceived as a clear abuse of the state to dispose of the lives of its citizens.  In modern foreign countries and the Russian Federation, this procedure seems to be a way to satisfy the desire of a person suffering from an incurable or severe disease of both a somatic and mental nature, in a dignified and rapid termination of his existence.  To what extent such a desire to classify oneself as deceased is voluntary and conscious and whether it fits into modern legal norms is considered in the presented publication, which at the same time offers more constructive ways to help individuals in need.

The article examines the dialectical relationship between the balance of private and public interests and the effectiveness of legal regulation of the dual-use goods. The concepts of dual-use goods and the legal regime of dual-use goods are examined and the conclusion is made that there is an interdependence between the categories «fair balance of private and public interests» and «the form and content of the dual-use goods regime». The structure of the legal regime system, consisting of interconnected subsystems that are in functional unity with each other, is analyzed. The dynamic property of the legal regime of dual-use goods to change the status of the goods and the status of the subject, depending on the state of the balance of private and public interests, is revealed. A special mechanism has been identified for regulating the system of the legal regime for dual-use goods, arising from the process of unification of legal norms, both at the international and national levels. The author proposed measures to improve the mechanism for regulating the legal regime of dual-use goods, based on the achievements of scientific and technological progress. Thus, increasing inter-industry relations through the unification of legal norms, as well as the use of modern technologies in the export control process, will ensure a fair balance between private and public interests. Meanwhile, state intervention in the property relations of individuals should be of an exceptional nature, providing for the existence of a mechanism for judicial protection of the weak side, for example, in the form of an institution for consumer protection. It is a focused approach based on the additional role of the state that will improve the effectiveness of the dual-use goods regime, as well as eliminate archaic methods of legal regulation of the turnover of dual-use goods based on the permissive type of regulation. In that way, the system measures that allow integrating advanced technologies into the mechanism of dual-use goods regime include: - introduction of a risk-based approach in the export control system; - transition to the notification procedure for export control; - transition to automatic identification of dual-use goods; - creation of a unified technological platform for controlling the turnover of dual-use goods; - creating a virtual image of dual-use goods with the function of saving the history of their use; - chipping of dual-use goods; - use of distribution registers in transactions with dual-use goods.

This article summarizes different points of view in the context of scientific discussion on biosafety and the legal regulation of biotechnology use by states. The legal regulation of biotechnology, as a rapidly developing branch of science, concerns, first and foremost, activities related to the development, use and transfer of technologies for the use of living organisms. The main purpose of this study is to verificate the need to develop a mechanism that, according to the authors, will be able to implement the state biosafety policy based on the development of certain standards by international organizations and that will serve as a platform for the formation of international biomedical law, through integration principles of bioethics into biomedical relations. Object. The object of research is the norms of international law in the sphere of international legal regulation of the use of modern biotechnology through the lens of bioethics. Material and methods. The methodological basis of the research is comparative legal, dialectical, historical legal, comparative, and other research methods. Results. As a result of the analysis of scientific sources and approaches to solving this problem, evidence of the need for a comprehensive study of the existing scientific array to highlight bioethics has been obtained, and therefore biosafety, as an independent scientific direction in the context of modern legal biotechnology research and as part of the national security of the state. Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of this study consists in conducting comprehensive comparative analysis of the process of formation of legal norms for the protection of human rights. These norms are contained in existing international agreements on the development of biotechnology, from the point of bioethics as a component of state biosafety. Thus, the practical sphere of implementation of the results of this study is a modern international lawmaking process that must adequately reflect the most important aspects of the application of modern biotechnology by the states of the international community. These important aspects must form the basis of the international biomedical law and the Code of Bioethics. Moreover, the authors make no claims a comprehensive analysis of the problem posed in their work, since many important aspects need further study.

The paper features legislative regulation of physical education and sports in different historical periods. The research objective was to describe the legal framework of the Soviet and post-Soviet periods in order to use the experience in modern conditions. The study was based on the following scientific principles and methods. The principle of scientific research made it possible to use of a wide range of published and unpublished archival documents and scientific sources. The principle of historicism allowed the authors to identify the state of legal regulation in various historical epochs, as well as the nature of the changes they underwent. The comparative legal method helped identify the nature of the legal framework, its content in the Soviet period, and the qualitative changes that occurred after the collapse of the Soviet Union. As a result, the authors identified a number of stages in the development of the legal framework in question. The period of the Soviet legal norms lasted from the mid 1980s to early 1990s. During the transitional period of the 1990s, Russia was actively searching for legal regulation: the basic legislation was adopted in 1993, and the Law itself entered into force in 1999. The third period began when the state law on physical education and sport was adopted in 2008. Soon after that, a similar document was released in Kuzbass. In this regard, the development of sports law is a system of legal norms that regulate relations in the field of physical education and sports at the Federal and regional levels. The results of the research can be used in the development of the regulatory framework by Federal and regional legislative bodies, the scientific community, and lawyers involved in sports and physical education law.

Formulation of the problem. At the present stage of development of land relations in Ukraine, the activity related to the maintenance of the state land cadastre is of great importance and is intended to collect information and inform the participants of land relations about the real value and legal regime of each land plot in Ukraine. Such activity requires effective legal support because maintenance of the state land cadastre requires clear and transparent procedures for entering information into it and receiving information from its registry. Recent research on the topic. Problems of legal regulation of the maintenance of the state land cadastre has not received a wide coverage. Among the most revealing researches it is necessary to emphasize the dissertation of N. Grabovets , in which the subject of research was the legal support of the main types of land cadastral activity, and the scientific study of O. I. Sidorchuk , in which the legal aspects of the order of maintenance of natural resource cadastres were discussed. Legal aspects of maintaining the state land cadastre can be found in scientific works of A. G. Borovitskaya, N. O. Kuchakovskaya and Z. V. Yaremak. Currently, a comprehensive study of the legal regulation of the state land cadastre has not been conducted in the domestic literature. The purpose of this study is to determine the legal specifics of maintaining the state land cadastre. Article’s main body. Scientific research is devoted to determination of legal peculiarities of introduction of the state land cadastre. It was found that the legal regulation of the state land cadastre must be a relationship between landowners and landowners, the state, state entities and the community. The foundation of the legal regulation of the state land cadastre is the Constitution of Ukraine, which states that the laws of Ukraine determine the principles of land use exclusively. However, it should be noted that the main legal act on the maintenance of the state land cadastre is the Law of Ukraine "On the State Land Cadastre". In addition, some provisions concerning the maintenance of the state land cadastre are reflected in the Land Code of Ukraine, the laws of Ukraine "On Land Assessment", "On Land Surveying", "On Topographic and Geodesic and Cartographic Activities" and several bylaws. As a result of the conducted research it was established that the complex interconnected process of maintaining the state land cadastre requires a clear legal support for its organization. Law norms that regulate the organization of the areas of cadastral activities, including those related to the maintenance of the state land cadastre, are contained in different legal acts, which leads to the need for their systematization in a single legal act. Conclusions and prospects for the development. As a result of the conducted research it was established that the complex interrelated process of maintaining the state land cadastre requires a clear legal support for its organization. However, legal norms that regulate the organization of the areas of cadastral activity, including those related to the maintenance of the state land cadastre, are contained in different legal acts, which leads to the need for their systematization in a single legal act.

Problem setting. The problem of legalization (laundering) of money and other property acquired by criminal means is of great importance for Ukraine, because the criminalization of the economy is the main threat to the economic security of the state. In order to successfully combat this negative phenomenon, it is necessary to constantly develop and improve the processes of identification and analysis of financial transactions that are the objects of financial monitoring. Detection of such transactions requires clear criteria and indicators that allow you to quickly and accurately identify among the range of financial transactions those related to money laundering. The list of criteria and indicators of suspicion of financial transactions is large and sometimes ambiguous in terms of its interpretation and application. This issues is important because it is about the scope of law, the subjective rights of participants in financial transactions, the ownership of such persons in their assets and the level of trust in entities that provide financial and other services. The purpose of the research is to study the legal norms in the field of establishment and classification of financial monitoring objects – types of financial transactions depending on the criteria and indicators developed by the subjects of state financial monitoring and supplemented by the subjects of primary financial monitoring. Analysis of resent researches and publications. The solution of problems of legal regulation of the national system of financial monitoring in Ukraine (procedures, methods, risks, criteria, indicators etc.) was devoted to the works of such scientists as A. P. Gavrilishyn, I. M. Patyuta, B. M. Surkalo, O. E. Kostyuchenko, K. A. Kryvulya, Zh. I. Dovgan, I. G. Biryukova, V. M. Berizko and others. However, the issue of classifying financial monitoring objects according to the criteria and indicators of suspicion is important and necessary, because it is on such indicators that all activities in the field of financial monitoring are based and the results of such activities depend on their establishment. Article’s main body. The list of criteria and indicators of suspicion of financial transactions and their classification as objects of financial monitoring is quite wide. Their classification according to the relevant criteria is necessary and enshrined in law, which is important to prevent their unrestricted spread. At the same time, the subjects of state financial monitoring at their own discretion, but taking into account the main requirements of the legislation in the field of financial monitoring, develop and establish the grounds for classifying a financial transaction as an object of financial monitoring. In turn, the subjects of primary financial monitoring at their own discretion, but taking into account the rules and subjects of state financial monitoring, supplement, expand and improve this list in order, on the one hand, to prevent the legalization (laundering) of proceeds from illegal by and their entry into the financial system of the state and, on the other hand, compliance with the subjective rights of customers – participants in financial transactions. Conclusions. The article examines the legal norms in the field of establishment and classification of financial monitoring objects – types of financial transactions depending on the criteria and indicators developed by the subjects of state financial monitoring and supplemented by the subjects of primary financial monitoring. It is concluded that the identification of transactions that are the objects of financial monitoring requires clear criteria and indicators that allow you to quickly and accurately identify among the range of financial transactions those related to money laundering. Risk criteria by type of client, by geographical basis, by type of service (product), by service supply channel (product) are considered. Differentiated indicators of suspicion of financial transactions into indicators related to the activities or behavior of the client, indicators related to the financial operations of the client and indicators for different types of products (services). It is emphasized that the problem of defining clear and standard types of criteria and indicators of financial transactions is important and relevant in the current relations in the field of financial monitoring between the state and the participants of the respective financial transactions.

The goal of this article is to explore the features of using insolvency proceedings in Latvia and to elaborate on special proposals for modernizing the laws. In the legislation, there has been no prospect from a legal perspective to restructure an individual’s debts. Namely, individuals have no opportunity to use legal protection within the framework of the insolvency proceedings to reach an amicable agreement with creditors, or create another form of debt restructuring. Eliminating this gap in legislation is therefore necessary.In this article, analytical, comparative, historical and deductive methods are used to explore the legal norms that regulate the insolvency proceedings for an individual. The aim is to identify the distinctive features of the proceedings; to analyze the problematic aspects of laws and develop proposals for modernizing the legislation of Latvia in this field. The novelty of this research pertains to it being the first attempt in Latvia to examine the question of legal regulation of insolvency proceedings in complexity, with a practical proposal to improve Latvian legal norms and avoid bankruptcy problems. The outcome of this study includes a proposal to supplement the Act on Insolvency with the Article “Amicable Agreement”, for deciding upon the state of insolvency. This relates to an agreement between the creditors and the debtor to fulfil obligations before an auction of the debtor’s property.
