Legal Communication

E-government is a form of public administration which promotes efficiency, openness and transparency of public authorities and local governments with the use of information and telecommunications technologies to form a new type of state focused on meeting the needs of citizens. E-government is studied as a way, a form, the concept, system and mechanism of cooperation between the state (public administration) and public sectors (civil society). As a method for legal communication between civil society and public administration, e-government plays the role of a means of public self-government, which involves interactivity and continuity of interaction between citizens and the state, the presence of public control over the activities of public authorities. This article is dedicated to reveal the role of e-government for realizing the goals of legal communication between its participants in public life. However, further in-depth analysis requires understanding the role of e-government as a means of legal communication, changing the focus and direction of its development in the digital age, as well as exploring promising areas of legal regulation of virtual legal relations between public authorities and civil society. The implementation of e-government in Ukraine should be provided on a qualitatively new level to develop efficient legal communication between government and society as a whole, strengthen confidence in the state and its policies, improve cooperation between public authorities and local governments, business, citizens and civil servants. The authors of this article adhered to its purpose, which is to analyze the understanding of the role of e-government as a means of legal communication, changing the focus and direction of its development in the digital age, and exploring promising areas of legal regulation of virtual legal relations between government and civil society.

Problem setting. The article analyzes the issue of legal relations in the field of land accounting. The legal nature of public relations in this area has been clarified. The accounting of the quantity and quality of land is investigated. The author’s definition of legal relations in the field of land accounting is provided. The circle of subjects of these legal relations is outlined. Analysis of recent researches and publications. To date, in the scientific literature there is no comprehensive study of the legal regulation of legal relations in the field of land accounting. There are only developments devoted to certain issues of land law science. Target of research. The study of the legal regulation of legal relations arising in the field of land accounting, the allocation of subjects of these legal relations. Article’s main body Justification of the appropriateness of obtaining, systematizing all the resources available on the land plot, determining the size, quality status and distribution of the land fund, providing the necessary data about the land, studying the legal relations arising on this occasion. The basis of the land registration and registration system in Ukraine is the State Land Cadastre. It reflects the subjective information on land, which accumulates as a result of land accounting. Such information is necessary primarily for the implementation of state control over the use, reproduction and protection of land. Only a legally regulated and wellmaintained process of conducting accounting and registration activities in the field of land relations can become the key to the introduction and functioning of a transparent mechanism for the circulation of land in market conditions and an effective mechanism for managing them. In this aspect, it is important to note that it is necessary to distinguish land accounting in the proper sense and land rights accounting (as a broader category compared to the first). In the context of the land registration reform and the further process of improving the State Land Cadastre, it is necessary to talk about the formation of land information relations. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Land accounting relationships are public relations that arise in connection with the activities of public authorities and local governments, which are endowed with appropriate powers to take measures to obtain, systematize and analyze information on the quantity, territorial location and use of land. The subjects of these legal relationships are landowners and land users, the state, state authorities and local selfgovernments, who are vested with the respective powers.

The article examines the role of political parties in modern state-building processes in Ukraine. The place of political parties in the political and legal system of society is determined. The general directions of overcoming problematic situations of activity of political parties in Ukraine are offered. It is noted that political parties play an important role in the organization and exercise of political power, act as a kind of mediator between civil society and public authorities, influence the formation of public opinion and the position of citizens directly involved in elections to public authorities and local governments. It is determined that in a modern democratic society, political parties carry out their activities in the following areas: the work of representatives of political parties in public authorities and local governments; participation in elections of state authorities and local self-government bodies; promoting the formation and expression of political will of citizens, which involves promoting the formation and development of their political legal consciousness. These areas of political parties determine their role and importance in a modern democratic society, which determines the practical need to improve their activities and improve the national legislation of Ukraine in the field of political parties. Political parties are one of the basic institutions of modern society, they actively influence the ac-tivities of public authorities, economic and social processes taking place in the state and so on. It is through political parties that the people participate in the management of public affairs. Expressing the interest of different social communities, they become a link between the state and civil society. The people have the opportunity to delegate their powers to political parties, which achieves the ability of the people to control political power in several ways, which at the same time through competition of state political institutions and political parties contributes to increasing their responsibility to the people. It is noted that the political science literature has more than 200 definitions of political parties. And approaches to the definition of this term significantly depend on the general context in which this issue was studied by the researcher. It was emphasized that today in Ukraine there are important issues related to the activities of political parties. First of all, it is a significant number of registered political parties that are incapable, ie their political activity is conducted formally or not at all. According to official data from the Department of State Registration and Notary of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, 352 political parties are registered, of which 48 political parties do not actually function. The reason for the liquidation of such parties is not to nominate their candidates for the election of the President of Ukraine and People's Deputies of Ukraine for 10 years. According to this indicator, Ukraine ranks first among other European countries. Thus, 73 political parties are officially registered in Latvia, 38 in Lithuania, 45 in Moldova, 124 in Romania, and 56 in Slovakia. However, despite the large number of officially registered political parties in Ukraine, public confidence in their activities is low. It is concluded that political parties occupy a special place in the political and legal system of society and play an important role in the organization and exercise of political power, as well as a kind of mediator between civil society and public authorities. The general directions of overcoming problematic situations of activity of political parties in Ukraine are offered, namely: introduction of effective and impartial control over activity of political parties; creating conditions for reducing the number of political parties, encouraging their unification; establishment of effective and efficient sanctions for violation of the requirements of the current legislation of Ukraine by political parties.

State Administration

Local governments in the Slovak Republic are important in public administration and form an important part of the public sector, as they provide various public services. Until 1990, all public services were provided only by the state. The reform of public administration began in 1990 with the decentralization of competencies. Several competencies were transferred to local governments from the state, and thus municipalities began to provide public services that the state previously provided. Registry offices were the first to be acquired by local governments from the state. This study aimed to characterize the transfer of competencies and their financing from state administration to local government using the example of registry offices in the Slovak Republic. In the paper, we evaluated the financing of this competency from 2007 to 2018 at the level of individual regions of the Slovak Republic. The results of the analysis and testing of hypotheses indicated that a higher number of inhabitants in individual regions did not affect the number of actions at these offices, despite the fact that the main role of the registry office is to keep registry books, in which events, such as births, weddings, and deaths, are registered.

The article examines the role of legal communication in ensuring human rights. It is noted that the study of legal communication in the modern information space forms a modern postclassical legal understanding, which is focused on ensuring the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens. Legal communication acts as a means of ensuring dialogue between the state and citizens, as a regulatory and socio-constructive factor of social development. According to recent research, the doctrine of human rights is developing on the basis of an interdisciplinary approach to such sciences as philosophy, theory and history of state and law, political science, linguistics, information theory and more. The introduction of information and communication technologies in all spheres of society presupposes the study of the communicative properties of law, in particular legal communication. Given the increased attention to the problems of the effectiveness of law, the definition of its functional purpose, there is a need to study the role of legal communication in ensuring human rights. Human rights are a common value of civil society and the state, they determine their relationship, and ensuring the implementation and protection of human rights is their common task. A manifestation of such interaction is the legal communication between the state and civil society. The study of legal communication in the modern information space forms a modern postclassical legal understanding, which is focused on ensuring the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens. The renewal of legal relations, first of all between the state and society, requires scientific substantiation and introduction of new forms of communication. Legal communication in this case acts as a means of ensuring dialogue between the state and citizens, as a regulatory and socio-constructive factor of social development. At the stage of transition to the information and legal society, the relationship between legal communication and legal regulation changes. Legal communication acquires an independent meaning in relation to legal regulation, which itself becomes a system, a derivative element of legal communication. Іt is proved that legal communication contributes to the formation of legal values in the modern information space, a positive perception of law, the formation of the legal consciousness of the subjects of communication, the improvement of the legal mechanism for the protection of human rights. Legal communication acquires an independent meaning in relation to legal regulation, which itself becomes a system, a derivative element of legal communication. The effectiveness of legal communication in ensuring human rights is ensured by observance of the principles of the rule of law, legality, publicity, democracy, and universality. Keywords: human rights, legal communication, information society, information security.

Delegation Of Powers

AbstractThis article is devoted to the study of the problems of the delegation of state powers to local self-government bodies. The paper reveals the pluralism of approaches to the organization of models of such interaction in the countries where various doctrines of the organization and functioning of local self-government prevail (the state-oriented doctrine, the community-oriented doctrine, and the doctrine of municipal dualism). Using the example of various European states (grouped on the basis of the prevailing doctrines presented above for convenience), we reveal specific schemes for the legal regulation of interaction within such relations, their positive features, and drawbacks. The obtained data presented in a compressed form in the paper also features an in-depth analysis of the constitutional and legal regulation of the delegation of state powers to local governments in Ukraine. An important element of the novelty of the study was the projection of modern Ukrainian problems in the field of delegated powers through the prism of the existing European systems and relevant experience, thereby complementing this study with a comparative dimension.Conclusions made by the authors feature a set of recommendations based on the conducted comparative research and on formal and logical analysis of compliance of the domestic model of the delegation of powers with the provisions of the European Charter of Local Self-Government. Taking into account the fact that European standards in the sphere of the delegation of powers (depends on the adoption of amendments to the Constitution of Ukraine and the Law ‘On delegation of separate powers of executive authorities to local self-government bodies’) are not yet implemented in Ukraine, we believe that this research will not only be useful in the context of theoretical and scientific research of the issue but also has the potential to contribute to the development and implementation of relevant legislation.

The article analyzes the theoretical and practical aspects of decentralization as a foundation for the formation of local governments in Ukraine. The importance of introducing the reform of decentralization of power on the path of development of Ukraine as a democratic, social, legal state is proved. The activity of local self-government in the conditions of decentralization is currently a priority among the reforms in Ukraine, as new trends in state building of our country, formation of civil society institutions, optimization of the system of local self-government determine new conditions for decentralization. Traditionally, a constant view of decentralization as a process in which independent units that form the bearers of local self-government are formed in a centralized state requires the development of new approaches to the analysis of its content and, accordingly, the search for new opportunities to achieve the goal. The role of decentralization in the formation of the institution of local self-government is crucial. After all, decentralization is a kind of management system, in which part of the functions of central government is transferred to local governments. Decentralization is one of the forms of democracy development, which at the same time preserves the unity of the state and its institutions while expanding the possibilities of local self-government. It aims to activate the population to meet their own needs, to narrow the sphere of state influence on society, to reduce expenditures on the maintenance of the state apparatus. This process promotes direct democracy, as it involves the transfer of control of a number of local affairs directly into the hands of stakeholders. Thus, we can say that decentralization helps to build the civil society we so strive for. As a result of local government reform and decentralization of power, the basis of the new system of local self-government should be united territorial communities, which are formed on a voluntary basis in accordance with the statutory procedure with their own self-government bodies, including executive bodies. The reform should help improve the lives of Ukrainian citizens, as well as build a legal, modern, efficient and, most importantly, competitive European state.

Abstract The principle of legality represents one of the most important principles of the state of law, which significantly contributes to defending the law order and the social balance. Established as a principle of the organization and functioning of the state public authorities at the Revolution of 1789 in France, the acknowledgement of the principle of legality in an act having a constitutional value marked the moment of foundation for the state based on law principles and represented a premise of creating a modern public administration. The principle is present at the level of each judiciary branch, which provides for its popularity due to its specificity. The paper aims at achieving a brief analysis of the role of the principle of legality in public law, presenting its importance in constitutional and administrative law.

Managerial Culture

The ways of development and structural changes of the Ukrainian society also affected the public administration, which should gradually be transformed into a more open one in the dialogue with the civil society, to become public. Public administration, if it is effective, must fully provide, satisfy, and regulate the activities of society, state institutions, local governments, civil society institutions, labor collectives, and so on. In addition, it is also important to say that the changes and transformations that take place in management affect the development of new principles of management itself in practice, and the modern perception and use of social values in the management process. The outlined changes and transformations determine and, in some way, promote the processes of effective approach to the problems of research of modern directions of formation, development and comprehension of managerial culture. Mostly, this process is related to the real life of society, the state, government agencies, civil society institutions, effective social cooperation between the state and civil society, and so on. In fact, the formation of the components of managerial culture, its place and role in public administration largely depend on these factors. We understand managerial culture as a socio-political phenomenon, which in the process of its formation, is structured into a sufficient public institution, which has an impact on management policy by the state, society, various groups, local communities, social organizations, etc. Hence, the importance of managerial culture increases, which is formed during a certain socio-historical time. We realize that a manager already has some established qualities of managerial culture. Its shaping, and subsequent formation, occurs in a variety of socio-cultural circumstances, the environment, are both organized and spontaneous. The professional activity and work of a public manager depends on it in many respects. Based on this, the tasks of studying managerial culture from the standpoint of new views of the transition to public administration; identification of perspective areas for both scientific and theoretical analysis, for practical application are crucially important today.
