Today, employers like to complain about the low efficiency of their employees. However, they do not take into account the fact that they themselves are not only unable to adequately organize the labor process, but also very often create their own non-working atmosphere, full of intrigue, harassment and violence. As a result, labor productivity is low, there is hatred for each other in the team, and the most promising employees can not withstand the pressure and are fired. For the most part, in post-Soviet labor collectives with a well-developed informal management apparatus, the rights of workers enshrined in the current legislation are leveled and the practices of “etching” or “surviving” people from work become acceptable. These may be workers with other socio-political views, those who do not succumb to the dominant practices of psychological or sexual oppression, aim to create an independent union, who prefer to work decently, rather than participate in the competition "who is closer to the throne" at regular banquets and meetings, gradually losing professional and personal dignity. The spread of mobbing in the field of labor shows the vulnerability of the most vulnerable categories of the population to increased labor exploitation, declining social status and lack of social support. Predatory laws of the market system dictate predatory behavior to labor market participants who are afraid of losing their livelihoods. Mobbing is a clear result of material stratification and marginalization of a large part of the population of Ukraine. It is to such consequences that global capitalism leads. And of course, we need to treat the causes, not the consequences. However, with adequate legal mechanisms to combat mobbing, one can hope to reduce the violent pressure on the employee. This will be facilitated by the "legal mechanism of counteraction" and not by the punitive pressure of law enforcement agencies, which stigmatizes victims of mobbing as informers and justifies the need for violence against them instead of protecting professional honor and human dignity.

Abstract Financial institutions are the centre of economic and legal interests of participants of the financial services market, which is itself characterised by a high level of conflict of interests of its participants. The purpose of the article is the scientific development of the legal structure of organisational and legal forms of financial institutions, in the market of financial services, as a legal mechanism for reconciling the economic and legal interests of the main participants of this market. The features of basic and modified legal forms of legal entities are elaborated in this article. It is determined that financial institutions are established and operate in ‘modified’ legal forms. Such forms emerge due to the supplementation of the structure of the main elements of the basic legal forms of legal entities. This refers to additional functional legal means that reflect special requirements for the relevant types of legal entities, depending on the economic and legal interests of their founders/participants.

A study of the regulatory documentation of the executive authority of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation in the field of forestry was carried out in order to identify the determinants of improving the regulatory documentation system. It is noted that the system of regulatory documentation of the executive body under review is represented by status, functional and official regulations. It is indicated that the body in the field of its activities in the provision of public services and the performance of public functions to exercise control (supervision) performs a significant number of interagency interactions. Moreover, these interactions do not rely on specific regulatory documents – administrative regulations for interagency cooperation. Such a lacunae in the system of administrative regulations of the body in question causes the imperfection, non-optimality of its work. It is shown that one of the most significant manifestations of this situation is the state of affairs in the field of cooperation with law enforcement agencies in the prompt identification of violators of forest legislation and timely recovery of damage from these violations. The system of this interaction does not have a proper regulatory document and is characterized by low efficiency. It is concluded that the regulation of interaction with law enforcement agencies is a determinant of improving the system of regulatory documentation of this body. In this regard, the relevance of the activities of the body in question in the field of formulating proposals for the development of regulations, and, possibly, their more than approved local testing as an experiment at the level of individual regions, was noted. It is proposed in order to establish the procedure for interaction between bodies exercising powers in the field of forest relations and law enforcement agencies in identifying, suppressing, investigating and solving crimes in the field of forest use, to develop a regulation for interaction at the regional level.

The article gives a brief description of the main provisions of the new economic policy of the Soviet state, which had a significant impact on the criminalization of economic relations taking shape in the Soviet state of the period under review. The increase in the number of economic and official crimes, as well as the low efficiency of the investigation of crimes, put before law enforcement agencies a serious task to improve investigative activities. Based on the study of the unique works (1926, 1928 and 1931) of the forensic scientist V. I. Gromov, the conclusions are drawn and the most significant recommendations are given, which have not only historical value, but practical value for improving the practice of investigating economic crimes at the present stage.

The course of historical events is studied with regard to the reunification of Western Ukraine with Soviet Ukraine. The formation of the foundations of the new state-political and territorial system with the formation of new regions of Western Ukraine is shown. The characteristics of the most important regulations on the formation of law enforcement agencies of the Soviet government and their repressive actions on the territory of the region are given. The first repressive actions were directed against the Polish servicemen and the members of counter-revolutionary, espionage organizations, the former landowners, the manufacturers, the Polish officers, the officials, and the defectors, who were at the prisons in the western regions of Ukraine. The activities of Ukrainian political parties were banned. The activity of «Prosvita», Taras Shevchenko Scientific Society was stopped and the work of cultural and educational institutions, theaters, philharmonics, museums was reorganized. The policy of forced collectivization, nationalization of the industrial enterprises, the banks was tracked on the basis of the research materials. There were four waves of deportations during the 1939–1940 years, when not only the Polish settlers and Polish civil servants of local self-government but also a group of Ukrainian foresters, members of public, political, nationalist organizations, entrepreneurs, merchants, wealthy peasants were deported. The priests of various denominations, members of the OUN underground did not escape deportation and repression. It is stated that the victorious conclusion of the war with Germany promoted realization of administrative measures to restore the Soviet power in the western Ukrainian lands. The edge of mass repression is directed against the Ukrainian bourgeois nationalists. The mass inspections were introduced under the guise of registration and population censuses. The repressive politics aims to fight the Greek Catholic clergy of the region. Strengthening the struggle against politically unreliable intelligentsia, students, Western Ukrainian literary and artistic elite, and members of Lviv organization of the Union of Soviet Writers of Ukraine is substantiated. Repressive bodies had a special attention to the assessment of the political views of the scientific and pedagogical workers of Lviv universities and the pupils of M. Hrushevskyi.

The article is aimed at researching the processes of establishing and developing interaction in innovative processes. The reasons for the low efficiency of innovation activity in Ukraine are analyzed and the importance of increasing the indicators of interaction in innovative processes to overcome the causes of low innovativeness of the economy is substantiated. The main elements of conceptual bases of formation of interaction systems in innovative processes are defined: formation goals, expected results, conditions for establishing interaction. Particular attention is paid to determining the range of potential participants of interaction systems and their systematization into four groups: the State, science, business, consumer. For each group, the prompting factors of establishing interaction in innovative processes and possible contribution in the course of formation of systems of interaction in innovative processes are determined. It is specified that the interests of groups of participants of interaction systems can be multidirectional and have their own criteria for the effectiveness of satisfaction. Therefore, in order to avoid conflicts and with purpose of rational mutual understanding of interests, it is proposed to evaluate the feasibility of participation in innovative processes through the indicator of the value of interaction. On the basis of the carried out study, the concept of the value of interaction in innovative processes is substantiated and the fundamental components of this concept are determined, namely: the usefulness and the cost of interaction. According to the author, the value of interaction for the participant is formed through the comparison of the received usefulness from participation in the systems of interaction to the expected costs associated with this participation. In connection with the acceleration of the dynamics of world economic processes and, in particular, innovative ones, the importance of taking into account the factor of time when assessing value is emphasized. Firstly, the interaction in the innovation process is developing, taking new forms both for partners and for different market participants. Secondly, the impact of time on the usefulness and cost of interaction can take different meanings: increase, decrease or not affect the level of value (usefulness, cost) of interaction.

Human exploitation refers to the curtailment of fundamental human rights. The crime plays out notwithstanding the laws that criminalizes human abuses. This study explored the policing of human trafficking and forced labor in the Southern African countries of the Southern African Development Community (SADC) and assesses the capabilities and abilities of law enforcement agencies in the region to curb the scourge. In this study a qualitative perspective was adopted with use of literature study and interviews. The prevalence of organized criminal groupings exacerbates the problem of human trafficking and forced labor in the region. Law enforcement corruption is rife as the police are often accused of acts of receiving bribes. There are capacity constraints in the policing agencies across the region which impacts negatively on proactive enforcement of protected goods. The study reveals that respective law enforcement agencies work in seclusion and do not systematize their databases to share information with other agencies owing to a prevailing cynicism amongst countries. It is proposed that there should be harmonization of law enforcement agencies’ databases to share information for intelligence purposes and to develop defensive and responsive response mechanisms to thwart the crime.
