The development of the theoretical doctrine of the functions of law is associated with the creation of fundamental scientific knowledge about legal phenomena, processes and events. An important place in this case is occupied by an understanding of the impact of law on public, political, economic processes, civil society institutions, the binding of state power institutions to the norms of law, as well as legal motivation and identification of a person. Scientific knowledge about the state, determination and laws of the functions of law, their functioning in the information and legal space, is formed at the intersection of industry and intersectoral generalizations, the absorption of certain signs, phenomena and processes. Such knowledge relates, firstly, to the development of a methodology for the analysis of new social and legal phenomena (development of the technology of scientific analysis), and, secondly, they are realized in the context of obtaining and consolidating in the practical plane legal facts, concepts, events (development of legal praxeology). The scientific and practical problems of the functional purpose of law are related to the issues of management tools based on law, society’s self-preservation, legal security, legal consolidation and professional competence, as well as the development of legal awareness, legal culture and legal mentality of Ukrainian citizens. A theoretical analysis of the problems of the function of law can be properly carried out in determining the public boundaries of the emergence and change of legal relations, including those combined in protective, regulatory, organizational jurisdictions; at the present stage, such jurisdictions are mainly departmental or sectoral in nature. Among the many legal phenomena that have become the object of functional analysis, such phenomena as the state and quality of the legal system, the quality of legislation, the sequence of legal policy, legal civilization, regulation and control of public relations have recently attracted attention. The conceptual apparatus of legal science has recently increased significantly, although at the same time the methodological circle of concepts and methods of analysis practically remains the same. Conclusion: the theory of the functions of law makes it possible to determine the objects, objects and methodology of scientific knowledge of law in its functional purpose, integrative interpretation of legal concepts and categories. Key words: functions of law, influence of law, binding by the right of power, legal identification, expansion of the methodology of scientific analysis, restrictions on human rights, jurisdictions.

The relevance of scientific knowledge of theoretical and legal aspects of the interpretive function of the notary in Ukraine is revealed in the work. Since the functions of the notary in general perform a general social role, due to their extension to public relations, it should be said that they are complex, implemented in various spheres of public relations, using various forms and methods, trying to perform tasks assigned by law at the notary. This indicates the possibility of distinguishing the types of functions of the notary, which in the doctrinal plan will allow to present the functions of the notary in the form of a clear system, and in practical terms - to establish the state of implementation of the functions of the notary. It is noted that today in the context of intensification of economic development of the state there is a strengthening of the role of the notary of Ukraine, so the problem of its reform, including in the context of improving the quality of notary functions, becomes especially relevant and needs scientific rethinking. First of all, this is due to the current European integration changes in the socio-political and legal life of Ukraine, which requires adaptation and harmonization of the functioning of the notary of Ukraine to the standards of the European Union. Noting the high level of relevance of scientific research of theoretical and legal aspects of the functional purpose of the notary in Ukraine, emphasizing the exceptional importance for the further development of the domestic notary system, the author analyzed the views of scholars on understanding the functional purpose of the notary and established their place and meaning . It is concluded that from the scientific point of view the classification of the functions of the notary: first, it is an issue that is poorly studied, the existing approaches to the classification of notary functions are quite scattered and sometimes controversial, which does not allow to establish a single comprehensive approach to characterizing the types of notary functions; secondly, the doctrinal uncertainty of the types of functions of the notary and their characteristics complicates the scientific research of the functions of the notary; interdisciplinary nature of scientific knowledge of the functions of the notary and their types; the presence of different types of notaries, due to its respective functional purpose and the range of functions performed by it; instability of the notary’s functioning, which is due to the intensification of itscurrent development, improvement and the tendency to expand the range of functions; ambiguity of doctrinal approaches to the combination and balancing of private-public elements in the activities of the notary system, etc. In accordance with the criterion of the purpose of the notary’s function, together with other functions of the notary, the legal-interpretive function of the notary is singled out, the purpose of which is to clarify the content and meaning of the legal norm concerning notarial activity and provide relevant explanations to legal entities. For example, clarification of the rights and obligations of the parties to the contract of sale of real estate, certified by a notary. Keywords: notary, notarial activity, functional purpose of notary, legal interpretive function of notary.

The paper is devoted to the examination of issues related to the increasing importance of budgetary regulation for the proper functioning of a modern innovative society. The key role of the budgetary regulation in the financial process of the State is particularly acute in the context of systemic crises that include socio-economic consequences caused by the spread of a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in Russia. In the course of the study, the features of changes in the state financial policy caused by the above-mentioned crisis phenomena are highlighted. The paper describes various approaches to the interpretation of the budgetary regulation as a category of financial law, explores various types and legal forms of methods of the budgetary regulation, analyses mechanisms and the impact of the State on the budget system through the existing legal structure of the budgetary regulation. It is determined that the rules of financial law governing the whole complex of public relations concerning the distribution and redistribution of the national product between the levels of the budget system of the Russian Federation constitute the institution of financial law, namely: the budgetary regulation. The author concludes that the approach based on the concentration of basic powers in the financial field at the federal level significantly slows down the dynamics of development of economic activity in the majority of regions of Russia, while the need for breakthrough innovative development of Russian society determinates the expansion of long-term tax sources of income for regional budgets. In this regard, it is proposed to consolidate additional regulation for revenues gained by regional and local budgets in the form of targeted deductions from federal taxes on a long-term basis.

The hospitality industry acquires the features of an integrative industry, which combines material resources and intangible factors to meet the needs of modern man for comfortable travel and recreation. Hospitality is interpreted as a complex economic, social, cultural, psychological phenomenon, the impact of which on the development of the tourism industry determines the effect of synergy from the combination of tourist resources and quality of service. The author of article proposes to consider hospitality management as a multilevel dynamic management system for the process of providing services to tourists and vacationers, based primarily on the principles of humanism, tolerance, personalization of hospitality, respect for cultural diversity, priority to meet human needs for quality recreation and physical strength as well as cultural self-development. The social orientation of this system to some extent balances the commercial, purely pragmatic aspect of managing the development of tourism enterprises. A holistic model of hospitality management is based on a harmonious combination of four concepts. They are humanitarian, technological, functional and commercial. The system-forming component of the hospitality sector is a mechanism for managing consumer behaviour, which ensures an optimal balance of supply and demand in the market of hospitality services. The specifics of service in the hospitality industry is that the quality of service affects the emotional perception of tourists in the area and, accordingly, affects the image of the state. Therefore, the mechanism for implementing the service policy should be established through public administration measures. Among the key areas of hospitality management development is the formation of a rational organizational structure, improvement of hospitality marketing and support of corporate culture, the values of which are adequate to the socio-cultural environment of the hospitality industry. The specificity of the hospitality industry is also that an important role in ensuring competitiveness is played by an attractive brand, which stipulates the allocation in the management system of such a component as brand management. Considerable attention should be paid to the innovative development of hospitality enterprises and the constant improvement of professional competence of managers of socio-cultural activities.

The impact of occupation on health and access to health care is a significant issue for the state, health sector and citizens of Palestine, who struggle with difficulties related to an enduring sociopolitical stalemate. The study presents narratives from the field, conceptually exploring if and how occupation affects health and access to health care and how the situation is tackled by Palestinians in general and by health system actors specifically. A grounded theory approach analyzing in-depth interviews with health staff and field memos was used, with semi-quantification of emerging concepts through surveys of Hebron students that assessed health-related quality of life and health literacy with psychometric instruments (SF36 and GSE) and assumed health determinants. One key theme in the data analysis was isolation as a result of multiple barriers, including the wall and checkpoints, imprisonment and violence, which have an impact on determinants of health and quality of life in Palestine. In the survey 54% (n=90) were affected by such factors of occupation. Barriers affect access to health care, especially in rural areas. Mentally and materially breaking free from barriers of occupation seems to be a common task in all levels of Palestinian society. Achieving this goal requires different counter strategies and tactics. Presently, Palestine depends on ad hoc coping strategies, including the use of mobile clinics. Other ways to cope emerged in the data as well. Results from this mixed-methods study suggest that isolation is a main concern for Palestinians, resulting from barriers in policies of occupation that affect health and access to health care. Another concept emerging from the analysis was tactics and strategies against occupation in society.

The effectiveness of currently implemented wide range of strategic measures aimed at reducing the corruption and criminogenic potential in many spheres of life directly depends on their effectiveness in some key areas. The institute of anti-corruption expertise (ACE) of legislation, which now incorporates a considerable theoretical and methodological basis, requires further improvement and elimination of identified drawbacks. An almost decade of its history has been characterized by a steadily growing number of expert evaluations and the corresponding increase in the number of identified corruption-generating factors and the number of changes and amendments to normative acts. However, this dynamics is subject to controversial evaluations by analysts who talk about a routine formalistic approach and stereotyped, one-size-fits-all actions of experts and other parties involved in the multilateral mechanism of ACE. The analysis of information on the websites of professional bodies implementing ACE from the standpoint of quantitative indicators shows that this institute is effective. At the same time, the true criteria of effectiveness, connected with the improvements in the quality of the lawmaking process as a desirable result of implementing ACE, cannot be reduced to the evaluation of quantitative indicators alone. The monitoring of the effectiveness of measures implemented today within the ACE framework duly stresses the qualitative criteria of such effectiveness. Using them in the expert evaluation of municipal normative legal acts (NLA) and draft acts makes it possible to update the task of improving the quality of the lawmaking process at all levels of public administration. Municipal NLAs hold an important place both in the volume of the decisions made and the scope of public relations that they regulate, which sets the task of evaluating the quality of such acts to a new level. The analysis of the regional expert evaluation of municipal NLAs (using the example of Irkutsk Region) made it possible to compare the existing practices in this sphere and to identify typical circumstances that reduce the anti-criminogenic potential of ACE. The expertise aimed at identifying the corruption-generating factors in the law enforcement acts - in the personified decisions of the municipal bodies - is not common practice. At the same time, such NLAs at the individual level act as serious regulators of the legal sphere of peoples lives because they are connected with decisions on the provision of state support, the allocation of quotas, the distribution of expenses, etc.
