The interpretation of law plays a special role in the process of legal communication. Subjects of law, entering into legal relations of a certain type, interpret the content of legal norms already at the subconscious level with the aim of better satisfying their subjective rights, realization of legitimate interests and the proper implementation of legal obligations. The rule of law has general and abstract character that permit to cover a large number of specific situations, but which always differ in their individuality, their personalized nature. Taking into account this, as well as the existing shortcomings of the rule-making process, such as the presence of the vast majority of blanket and reference norms in constitutional law and non-compliance with the rules of legal technique, resulting in difficulty of expression or lack of normative definition of special legal terms, there is a need for interpretation of legal acts. The article is devoted to determining the nature of the interpretation of law and its role in the implementation of the constitutional and legal policy of the state. Various methodological aspects of the concept of legal interpretation and techniques of interpretation of law, as well as the criteria of truth and correctness of interpretation of law in the process of learning the content of legal norms are studied. The ratio of the categories «legal interpretive policy» and «legal interpretive form of legal policy implementation» is analyzed. It is concluded that the state-authorized subjects of legal interpretation, based on legal doctrine, form a legal interpretive policy aimed at developing a strategy and tactics for unification of legal ideas on adequate and uniform understanding and application of norms of the Constitution of Ukraine and other legal acts by all subjects of constitutional law. The means of achieving the goals of legal interpretive policy and fulfilling its tasks are legal doctrine, legal interpretation technique, interpretive practice, information resources and legal interpretative acts. Legal interpretive policy gives grounds to single out legal interpretation as an independent form of implementation of constitutional and legal policy along with law enforcement form, which is important for proper protection of human rights and freedoms, development of civil society and principles of sovereignability of the Ukrainian state on the basis of their equal understanding and application. Keywords: interpretation of law, legal interpretative acts, legal interpretive technique, constitutional and legal policy, legal interpretive policy.

Each legal concept has not only content (content), but also a form. The form requires compliance with the rules for the definition and construction of concepts. Improving legal terminology is impossible without deep development and observance of the rules of analysis and the precise construction of the conceptual apparatus. Gaps in legislation and regulations are derived from inaccuracy, lack of clarity and simplicity of conceptual constructions. The inconsistency of certain legal norms found in various laws and regulatory legal acts, the inconsistency of norms with the prevailing realities of legal life in the state and society impede the fulfillment by state authorities, including law enforcement, of their functional responsibilities. Mistakes made in the preparation of draft laws and regulations, methodological recommendations mainly boil down to the violation of the requirements of the unified laws of logic: the law of identity, the law of contradiction, the law of the excluded third and the law of sufficient reason. The use of inappropriate terminology causes complications in the application of legal norms. The Constitution of Ukraine assigns to the prosecutor the function of representing the interests of a citizen or state in court in cases specified by law. The term representation is not exactly chosen. The word "representation" means: the performance of the duties of a representative; an institution representing the interests of someone; elections, as well as the law, the procedure for the election of representatives to any bodies; representation is a legal relationship in which one party (representative) is obligated or entitled to make a transaction on behalf of the other party that it represents; representation means activity on behalf of someone, on behalf of a person. By its legal nature, a representative can only be authorized for transactions that the person he represents is entitled to carry out. The representation of the prosecutor's office in court is specific, since this body does not need instructions, contracts or other documents. The prosecutor or his deputy should act not on behalf of someone, but on behalf of the state in favor of the person and citizen, state or society, within the limits established by law. In the legislation there is a conflict (conflict) in the law regarding the term «representation». To eliminate such a conflict, it is necessary to amend the Law of Ukraine «On the Prosecutor's Office». Key words: definition of concepts, laws and regulations, accuracy, clarity, brevity of terms.

The methodology of the study involves the use of a number of general and special methods of cognition, in particular: terminological analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, structural-functional and comparative law. Results. In the course of the research it is proved that in modern conditions the legal policy of the state is determined in theoretical and practical aspects. Thus, in the theoretical aspect, the legal policy of the state is the legal ideology of the state, which includes ideas, theories, concepts, doctrines, strategies, programs, etc., enshrined mostly in the form of regulations. In the practical aspect, the legal policy of the state means the activities of the state to exercise effective legal influence on all spheres of public life. In all the considered approaches to the definition of the category of "legal policy" there is one common feature - the state-will character, which forms its power-imperative content. The features of legal policy include: based on law; implementation by legal methods; coverage mainly of the legal sphere of activity; reinforcement, when necessary, by force, coercion; publicity, formality; it has an external expression in the form of legal and organizational forms of its implementation.

Keywords: civil procedural law, civil process, civil proceedings, subject of civil procedurallaw The process of reforming procedural legislation, its harmonization, harmonization with theprinciples and standards of international law, as well as other processes taking place insociety and the state are the factors that affect the need to revise the doctrinal definitions of civil procedural law. One of the most developed issues in the theory of civil procedurallaw is its definition. In turn, the development of science is impossible without reviewingeven established doctrinal approaches and provisions.An analysis of the special literature, mostly educational, led to the conclusion thatscholars use approaches to the definition of the term "civil procedural law", which weredeveloped and included in the theory of civil procedural law in the 50s-60s of the twentiethcentury. Modern definitions of civil procedural law are based on the provisions of theold invalid legislation, or on the provisions of the legislation of other countries (for example,the Russian Federation). Therefore, the purpose of this study was to review the existingdefinitions in the theory of civil procedural law and their harmonization with theprovisions of current legislation of Ukraine.In the process of researching doctrinal approaches to the definition of civil procedurallaw, it was found that researchers invest in the definition of the subject, purpose of thisbranch of law, as well as additional characteristics of civil procedural law (participants,sectoral affiliation, stage, etc.).The lack of a single doctrinal approach to the definition of the subject of civil procedurallaw, which is part of the definition of civil procedural law, prompted to study thesubject of civil procedural law and propose its author's definition.Based on the provisions of current legislation, the article presents the author's definitionof civil procedural law as a branch of law, set and system of legal norms, the subjectof which are public relations arising in civil proceedings on the basis of fair, impartialand timely consideration and resolution of civil cases in order to effectively protect violated,unrecognized or disputed rights, freedoms or interests of individuals, rights and interestsof legal entities, the interests of the state.

The article describes some aspects of understanding legal values and legal obligations in modern legal science.To achieve the goal of the study, the author envisaged the performing such tasks as: clarifying the understanding of legal valuesand legal obligations used by legal science; proving the possibility of recognizing a legal obligation as a legal value; formulation of theconcept of legal obligation as a legal value.The author traces the interrelation between legal values and the legal order, emphasizing that without legal values, the rule of lawis ineffective, in turn, – legal values outside the legal order have no practical content.Based on this, the author proposes his own definition of the concept of legal values as ideal legal entities and principles that determinea person’s perception of the importance of law, assessment of phenomena occurring in society through law, form a certain modelof legal person’s behavior and are designed to ensure legal order and discipline in society.Given this understanding of legal values, as well as the position of modern legal science on the essence of legal obligation, theauthor defines the concept of legal obligation as a legal value: this is a legal prescription which is formulated by the state as necessaryto ensure law and order model of individual behavior, established in order to maintain the proper functioning of society as a collectivewhole and to ensure the interests of all its members, and fulfilled on the basis of the perception of certain behavior as fair and sociallyappropriate. The author’s approach to the justification of a legal obligation as a legal value is proposed due to the following factors: theperson’s perception of the relevant behavior as necessary, fair, socially acceptable, which expresses a socially significant benchmark;the formulation by the state through the legal norm the socially significant behavior; realization through such behavior the human socialnature as a part of the collective whole; the implementation of the principle of interdependence and complementarity of the rights andobligations of the individual.

The article is devoted to the analysis of scientific approaches to determining the constitutional and legal status of a person. The specifics of the norm of the constitutional law of Ukraine in the context of enshrining in it the basic provisions of the constitutional and legal status of a person and a citizen are revealed. It is determined that the primary and one of the most important elements of the system of constitutional law of Ukraine is the constitutional law (from the Latin norma - rule, model). The norms of constitutional law as components of the system of constitutional law of Ukraine in their entirety reflect the essence and content of this branch of law. Given this, they are sometimes compared with cells, as the basis of any living organism, biological system. The content of the legal status of man is determined by all the norms and relations governed by them that arise between the state and man in connection with its actual place in the socio-economic, political and spiritual-moral life of our society. These relations are very diverse, they cover various aspects of life and therefore are governed by the rules of not one, but almost all branches of law. At the same time, constitutional norms play a special role here. Due to their general regulatory nature, they outline the position of citizens not in any one area of activity, but in its main areas. At the same time, they establish only the most essential, fundamental relations between the state and its citizens in connection with their place in the management of public and state affairs, leaving detailed regulation of such relations to the norms of other industries.
