The article reveals the role of legal ideology and legal doctrine in shaping national legal culture. Stated about the absence in our society of well-established legal ideology and the necessity of its formation and implementation. Especially important is the latter, given the practice of continuous implementation in Ukraine of the constitutional and other «reforms» that only aggravate the situation of legal culture. It is noted that for the formation of legal culture in Ukraine, it is necessary to develop scientifically sound legal doctrine, which should be carried out appropriate legal policy of the state. However in Ukraine, the state and legal reform are implemented without a clear doctrinal approach, as indicated by a critical assessment of the judicial reform. On this basis we believe that the key to the domestic legal doctrine should be the issues of judicial reform and the development of legal science and education. Quality legal education is impossible without the legal science, which needs to develop scientifically sound theory of legal culture. Keywords: legal culture and national legal culture, legal doctrine, legal ideology, corruption.

Abstract: Positive obligations of States to protect and implement human rights are considered a part of various effects of human rights in legislations. In this article, it is argued that a crucial problem arises from the inconsistent practice of addressing violations of human rights committed by juristic persons together with a lack of underlying general theory of liability for human rights violations committed by private entities. Without a major change in the legal doctrine and case-law, we will need to remain focused on the role of the State as a guarantor of human rights, rather than on the imposition of human rights obligations on private-law entities. In this article, it is argued that the nature of the relationship between a juristic person and the State is not the only relevant aspect, as we should also examine the activity of the juristic person in question.Keywords: Positive obligations of States. Juristic persons. State-juristic person nexus. Fundamental rights. Horizontal effect.Resumo: Obrigações estatais positivas de proteger e de implementar direitos humanos são parte dos vários efeitos dos direitos humanos nas legislações nacionais. Neste artigo, argumenta-se que um problema crucial decorre da prática de abordar violações de direitos humanos cometidas por pessoas jurídicas sem uma teoria geral da responsabilidade por violações de direitos humanos cometidas por entidades privadas. Sem uma mudança importante na doutrina e na jurisprudência será preciso permanecer olhando apenas para o papel do Estado como garantidor de direitos humanos. Neste artigo argumenta-se que a natureza da relação entre uma pessoa jurídica e o Estado não é o único aspecto relevante. É preciso examinar também a atividade da pessoa jurídica em questão.Palavras-chave: Obrigações positivas dos Estados. Pessoas jurídicas.

Education and sciences, that are accessible to all, is the focus of several complex and remarkable utopian visions from the 17th century. Particularly the life and work of Johann Valentin Andreae (1586-1654) shows the relation between the critique of social conditions and the idea of a better society. As many others at that time he favours a type of state marked as enlightened governance. However, his detailed description of the state “Christianopolis” from 1619, in which he addresses primarily the role of science and education in a society, shows significantly more independent concepts and implications. In his comprehensive explanation he specifies that science and education have certain responsibilities and importance for a better society. Those thoughts are meaningful and considerable both for philosophical and historical reflections of science and the vantage point of the present and shall therefore be the main focus of this article.

The article outlines the problems of forming the legal culture of a lawyer, as an urgent requirement of the present, since the professional principles of lawyers must meet the highest moral values of society, and reliably defend the violated right, the successful solution of urgent problems of the state process directly depends on their professionalism. The level of development of any legal culture of society reflects the general conditions of legal consciousnesses, which are manifested through the implementation of legal activity, legal behavior. Today in Ukraine a high level of legal culture is not observed only among the ordinary citizen, but quite often it is not enough even for legislators, political leaders, heads of public organizations. It was found that the legal culture of a lawyer combines knowledge of legislation and the possibilities of legal science, the conviction of the necessity and social usefulness of laws and regulations, the ability to use legal instruments � laws and other legal acts in everyday activities, to resort to the use of all the achievements of legal science and practice when making and the design of solutions. The necessity is theoretically substantiated: to define a model of a specialist-lawyer and, as its component, a personality model and a training model. The specialist model must meet the requirements of the legal professional of the future; systematization and structuring of education not only by the level of education, but also by branches of law. The standard of legal education, the curricula of higher and secondary educational institutions should be optimized in terms of the structure and content of the relevant branch of law; when training law managers, it is necessary to take into account the shift in the meaning and goals of education towards the idea of self-expression and full disclosure of the capabilities and abilities of the individual; the paradigm shift of education from �education for life� to �education throughout life�. Thus, a law graduate must have professional knowledge, be convinced of their social feasibility and usefulness, be able to apply them in their professional activities, and strive for continuous self-improvement, because a high level of professional culture of a lawyer is an urgent requirement today. Because the professional culture of legal professionals directly affects the successful solution of pressing problems of the state-building process.

While research exists that explains how institutions impact judicial decision-making at the state level, less is known about what affects the creation and reform of institutions at the state level. This paper provides an exploratory investigation into why states choose to create Intermediate Appellate Courts (IAC). This paper finds that organized legal interests have a significant impact on policy adoption and the explanation that IACs are created to relieve the workload of the state’s highest appellate court finds no support. The findings refute some previously held assumptions about state judicial reform and in doing so provide insight for policy scholars interested in the role organized interests play in institutional reform.
