In the article considers some international legal aspects of NGO funding and outlines some problems that arise as a result of the functioning of these organizations and have not yet been resolved. The author notes that despite the significant scientific interest in the functioning and prospects of NGO development, some international legal aspects of their funding have not yet found proper legal consolidation and agreed doctrinal interpretation. In addition, the activities of NGOs provoke a mixed reaction from government agencies and certain segments of society. Therefore, the study of some features of NGO funding as subjects of international human rights activities, the author considers relevant, both in theoretical and practical terms. The author emphasizes that in addition to the negative impact of the established restrictions, there are urgent grounds for its implementation within the relevant legal regulation. One of the reasons for the emergence of mistrust and conflict situations in which NGOs are a party is the insufficient state of settlement of the legal status of the latter. The article states that the financial status of many NGOs is not transparent enough, as a result, some of them compete for government contracts and funds, which creates a risk of losing autonomy and independence, casts doubt on the impartial implementation of their missions.

Актуальность темы научной статьи обусловлена тем, что каждый гражданин Российской Федерации независимо от его социального статуса обладает правом на образование. Однако отдельные категории граждан, в частности, осужденные лица, не могут воспользоваться данным правом по причине наличия у них особого юридического статуса. Беспрепятственный доступ осужденных к образовательному процессу оказывает положительное влияние на социальную безопасность и защищенность каждого отдельного гражданина, так как от уровня их образованности напрямую зависит степень их исправления. В данный момент на территории нашей страны наблюдается большая вовлеченность всех слоев населения (включая осужденных) в сферу образовательных услуг как на возмездной, так и на безвозмездной основах. Профессиональное образование и профессиональное обучение как очень важный и необходимый элемент в отечественной пенитенциарной системе регулируется различными источниками права, относящимися и к системе уголовно-исполнительного законодательства, и к системе образовательного законодательства РФ. Целями правового регулирования отношений в сфере образования являются установление государственных гарантий, механизмов реализации прав и свобод человека в указанной сфере, а также защита прав и интересов участников отношений в сфере образования. Problem statement of the scientific article is due to the fact that every citizen of the Russian Federation, regardless of his social status has the right to education. However, some categories of citizens cannot exercise this right due to their special legal status, in particular, we will talk about convicted persons. Unimpeded access of this category of citizens to the educational process has a positive impact on the social safety and security of each individual, since the level of education of convicted persons directly affects the degree of their correction. At the moment on the territory of our country there is a great involvement of all segments of the population (including convicts) to the sphere of educational services free or for a fee. Vocational education and training as a very important and necessary element in the domestic penitentiary system is regulated by various sources of law relating to both the system of penal legislation and the system of educational legislation of the Russian Federation. The objectives of legal regulation of relations in the field of education are the establishment of state guarantees, mechanisms for the implementation of human rights and freedoms in education, as well as the protection of the rights and interests of participants of relations in the educational field.

In its modern form, local government developed in the nineteenth century. as a result of the victory of liberal-democratic reforms in the world's leading states. Therefore, consideration of the evolution of legal regulation of the forms of activity of deputies of domestic local representative bodies should begin in the 1860s, when in Austria-Hungary and the Russian Empire, which at that time included Ukrainian lands, local government began almost simultaneously. The period of functioning of representative bodies of local self-government in the Ukrainian lands as a part of Austria-Hungary and pre-revolutionary Russia (1862-1917) should be considered as the first stage of evolution of forms of activity of deputies of local councils in modern Ukraine. This was the stage of initiating the normative consolidation and practice of implementing the forms of activity of the deputy corps of domestic representative bodies of local self-government.

Straipsnyje analizuojama, kokią reikšmę turi skirtingos koncepcijos atskleidžiant konkrečios žmogaus teisės turinį. Konstatuojama, kad net „Vakarų“ demokratinėse valstybėse sprendžiant dėl žmogaus teisių turinio nuolat konkuruoja individualistinis ir traibalistinis požiūris į žmogaus teises. Esama koncepcijų dichotomija šiame straipsnyje iliustruojama žodžio laisvės turinio raidos kontekste. Straipsnyje į šios teisės turinio raidą žvelgiama per valstybės vėliavos teisinį statusą, analizuojant Jungtinių Amerikos Valstijų Aukščiausiojo Teismo jurisprudencijos ir kitų šalių teisinio reguliavimo patirtį. Konstatuojama, kad anglų–amerikiečių (liberalioji) žmogaus teisių ir laisvių koncepcija, spręsdama žmogaus teisės turinio problemą, prioritetą linkusi atiduoti konkretaus asmens, o ne grupės interesui.The article analyses the significance of different conceptions in disclosing the content of a concrete human right. It is stated that even in “western” democratic states, when one decides regarding the content of human rights, there is continuous competition between the individualistic and tribalistic approach to human rights. The existing dichotomy of these conceptions is illustrated in the context of the development of the content of freedom of speech. In the article the development of the content of this right is considered through the legal status of the flag, while analysing the experience of the jurisprudence of the US Supreme Court and that of legal regulation of other countries. It is stated that the Anglo-American (liberal) conception of human rights, while deciding the issue of the content of a human right, tends to give priority to the interest of a concrete person, but not that of a group.

The analysis of the legislation on the application of administrative arrest was carried out. It is established that the position of the legislator comes down to the fact that administrative arrest is the most severe measure of administrative penalty, which is applied in exceptional cases. Appointed only by a court decision (judge) if, in the circumstances of the case, taking into account the identity of the offender, the judge concludes that the application of other types of penalties will be insufficient. The uniqueness of administrative arrest is manifested in the fact that it is established for committing administrative offenses with a special anti-social orientation. The statistics of application of administrative arrest by types of administrative offenses and also number of persons on whom the given penalty is imposed on regions of Ukraine are resulted. It is emphasized that in practice administrative arrest as a type of penalty is used very rarely, in some cases its application is complicated by the procedure of its imposition. Attention is focused on certain provisions of the Draft Law “On the rules of administrative arrest” on the introduction of the principles of administrative arrest; features of the legal status of arrested persons; the procedure for placing a person in a temporary detention facility; placement of persons subject to administrative arrest; rights and responsibilities of arrested persons. The expediency of amendments to the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses is analyzed. In particular, parts two of Article 32 (Administrative arrest), parts one of Article 294 (Entry into force of a judge’s decision on an administrative offense and revision of the decision), Article 326 (Execution of a decision on administrative arrest and detention on guard duty). As well as additions to the Code by Article’s 326–1 (Petition for the imposition of the pretext and its consideration), 326–2 (Execution of the decision on the exercise of the pretext) and 328–1 (Petition for suspension of the term of administrative arrest and its consideration). The author of the article proposes to amend paragraph 2 of Article 6 of the Draft Law “On the Rules of Administrative Arrest”. Thus, adhere to the principle of non-discrimination enshrined in art. 3 of the draft law. According to the author, it would be logical, if there is an established procedure, to establish liability for violation of the rules and conditions of administrative arrest in the form of a separate provision to the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses. The general conclusion is that the adoption of the Laws “On Rules of Administrative Arrest” and “On Amendments to the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses in connection with the adoption of the Law of Ukraine “On Rules of Administrative Arrest”” will improve the legal regulation of application and administrative arrest, as a type of administrative penalty, to address a number of issues that exist in this area, which will ultimately contribute to the rule of law and respect for human rights in the application of the penalty.
