The article is devoted to the history of the formation and legal regulation of the activities of the lower ranks of the county police of the Russian Empire from the first half of the XIX to the beginning of the XX century. The rea-sons for the introduction of police custody in the territory of Astrakhan, Baku, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Perm, Samara provinces and the Kingdom of Poland are considered by the author. The position according to which in the second half of the XIX century the im-portance of protecting public order and public safety in rural areas was actualized in the state policy of the Russian Empire is substantiated by the author. The reasons for that were the reforms carried out at that time. The most important reform was the abolition of serfdom. The lack of a sufficient number of police officials in the coun-tryside, erforming law enforcement functions, was the reason for the introduction of the institution of police village constables. On the basis of archival and other historical sources, the article shows that the activities of police village constables from the state bodies and the liberal press were evaluated differently: state structures noted the positive results of the activities of police village constables to ensure public order and the safety of society and the state; in contrast, the liberal community absolutized the distrust of the activities of police village constables and the lack of their support from the population. The existing contradictions between society and the state were one of the reasons for the destruction of the law enforcement system and the collapse of the Russian Empire itself.

The purpose of this work is to give a brief analysis of the legal status of spiritual Christians Molokans in the Russian Empire, following the dynamics of state legal regulation. The problem of the individual sectarian groups status remains little studied in both domestic and foreign literature, which determines its relevance. We use the following research methods: chronological, problem and analytical. We analyze the norms of administrative and criminal law in force in the 19th - early 20th centuries in the Russian Empire, which regulate the rights and obligations of subjects assigned to the Molokan sect. The analysis showed that the legal impact of the state on the Molokans was repressive and causal throughout most of the studied period. Only the reign of Alexander I was marked by a loyal attitude towards sectarians. After the revolutionary events of 1905, a number of civil and religious freedoms were granted to the Molokans, however, one cannot speak of the religious equality of all subjects during this period. After 1905, specialized acts were passed regulating the procedure for registering communities, holding conventions, organizing religious education, and other areas of public relations.

Forest Legislation

The codification of the legislation on lands, forests, subsoil and other natural resources in the Russian Empire (1721-1917) is studied herein. Some sources of the systematization process in this field of legislation in the period, preceding the formation of the empire, from the time of the ʼCouncil Codeʼ to the reforms of Peter I (1649-1720) are revealed. Initially, the formation of the legal regulation in this field had the form of adoption of numerous separate legal acts. Such law-making methods were casual in nature and resulted in the emergence of internal contradictions in the legislation, which became too extensive and inconsistent. This was the strong reason for the urgent need for its systematization. The land law was most developed in Russia in the pre-imperial and imperial periods, which was due to the prevalence of agricultural production and the special importance of land relations. The land legislation was codified prior to other natural resource industries. The second most important in this area was the forest legislation. This was explained by the abundance of forests and their active use in economic activities, which required serious legal regulation. The importance of subsoil legislation had increased over time, due to increased exploitation of mineral resources. Later, water and faunal law began to develop actively and systematically. The milestone in the development of natural resource industries was M.M. Speransky's codification reform, the main result of which was the appearance of the ʼCode of Laws of the Russian Empireʼ. The separate codes included in it were specifically devoted to land, forest and mineral relations. First of all, they were the ʼCode of Survey Lawsʼ (vol. X), the ʼCode of Institutions and Forest Chartersʼ (vol. VIII) and the ʼCode of Institutions and Mineral Chartersʼ (vol. VII), which, however, were only the part of the array of legal norms on lands, forests and subsoil. Other volumes of the Code of Laws contained a large number of them. The norms of water and faunal law had no separate codes. Their systematization was carried out in the charters of the related branches of law. Along with this codification, a large number of separate normative nature-resource acts were issued. Not all of them were organically included in the relevant codes; they simply joined them as the official annexes. The systematization of the legislation on natural resources in the empire was not very consistent and was not always successful (Engelstein 1993: 339). Even after the most extensive imperial codification, it remained extremely fragmented. However, the demerger of certain natural resource charters from the Code of Laws as the separate codification units indicated the beginning of the formation of the land, forest and mineral law in pre-revolutionary Russia as the independent branches.

The article notes that during the current period of Ukraine undergoing fundamental transformations in the economy and society as a whole. In this regard, there is a need to form a new socio-economic model designed to ensure sustainable development. It also corresponds to Ukraine’s aspirations for integration into the European community. However, today the situation on the implementation of the principles of sustainable development in Ukraine is unsatisfactory, which, in particular, is expressed in the low standard of living of the population and its social protection, as well as in the inadequacy of measures taken in the field of environmental protection. This situation requires the construction of an integrated system of state policy aimed at ensuring sustainable development, which includes coordination of activities in the environmental, financial, economic and social spheres. All this should contribute to the protection of national interests, ensuring security for every citizen and society as a whole. In this regard, it is noted that in Ukraine there are significant problems in terms of accessibility of social services, ensuring social justice, achieving economic efficiency and environmental safety. The solution to these problems should be facilitated by the current decentralization policy. Within its framework, the creation of united territorial communities is taking place, which should positively affect the provision in each of them of conditions for the implementation of the principles of sustainable development. Indeed, it is on the territory of such communities that there are prerequisites for overcoming the structural imbalances that take place in the economy and condition the irrational use of all resources, including natural ones. As a result of this, the technogenic load on the environment should decrease. The study of social security problems at the level of the united territorial communities, including monitoring of its main indicators, gives reason to assert the need to improve the management system, which should ensure the accessibility of social goods and fairness in their distribution. Thus, ensuring sustainable development should be considered as a priority area of socio-economic development of Ukraine. This provides for such public policy measures as: the provision of unemployment benefits; ensuring a constant increase in the well-being of the population and strengthening its social protection; reduction of inflation and ensuring economic growth due to the successful solution of scientific and technical problems, including the introduction of effective forms of combining science and production; increasing environmental requirements for the economy. All this should contribute to the realization of the goal of achieving sustainable development.
