The article is dedicated to the institution of the presumption of the child's origin from the husband of the mother as one of three ways to determine the child's origin from the father. In the opinion of the author, with the current availability of genetic tests (DNA), the regulation “extending” this presumption to children born after the termination or annulment of marriage, after the judicial separation and declaring any of the parents to be deceased, does not implement the principle of protecting the good of the child and in particular his right to grow up in the family and the identity right. The current shape of the regulation of the Family and Guardianship Code regarding this presumption significantly hinders, and certainly delays, the possibility of establishing biological paternity and granting the biological father the status of legal father, which is most desirable and justified. The current legal status is not favorable either for the child, his biological father or his mother's ex-husband. Taking into account the progress of genetics by the legislator and enabling the recognition of paternity on the basis of out-of-court DNA test results at any time of the child's birth after the termination or annulment of his mother's marriage by the genetic father, would significantly improve the paternity determination procedure and relieve the courts. These changes are also of great importance in the context of family evolution and the growing acceptance of informal relationships in which children are born and raise.

The relevance of the article is that the granting of special status «child divorced from the family» in the Ukrainian legislation includes three aspects: 1) identification of a person who is a child separated from the family; 2) granting the status of «child deprived of parental care»; 3) it is possible to grant the status of “refugee” or “person in need of additional protection”, as any person recognized as a child divorced from a family is recognized as a child deprived of parental care and can apply for asylum in Ukraine (and receive refugee status or a person in need of additional protection). Each of the identified aspects of the above status is the responsibility of certain public authorities, ie public administration entities, which are endowed with the appropriate powers. The purpose of the article is to identify the subjects of administrative and legal support for the identification of children separated from their families, ie the subjects of public administration, which are empowered to identify such children in Ukraine. It was found that in fact, the identification of a child separated from the family at the present stage in Ukraine does not belong to the responsibilities of public administration, but is the responsibility of the child who was forced to leave the country of origin or residence and arrived in the territory of Ukraine unaccompanied by a family member or persons determined by law/custom who are responsible for such a person, or who were left unaccompanied after arriving on the territory of Ukraine, or its legal representatives. In our opinion, the absence in the legal acts that determine the legal status of public administration entities, whose activities include the identification of children separated from their families, their obligation to identify such children is a shortcoming of administrative and legal support for child status. , separated from her family, in Ukraine. It is determined that the subjects of public administration, which have the authority to identify children separated from their families, include the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, executive authorities, local governments, the National Police of Ukraine, the Prosecutor’s Office of Ukraine.

The objective of the study involves testing the influence of accessibility of DNA tests, on paternity determination. Without doubt, DNA tests determining the family relationship have become one of the most frequently performed genetic tests commercially. They are carried out both at individual request, as well as for use in judicial proceedings. Undoubtedly, the common use of DNA tests to exclude consanguinity has become very popular in judicial practice. Moreover, it seems that due to the fact that DNA tests are quite accurate in determining blood relations, the regulations of the Family and Guardianship Code have been changed in order to base paternity on the certainty of genetic relation. The study also involved the regulations of the Family and Guardianship Code as well as judicial decisions in order to indicate the nature of evidence from genetic testing and its impact on paternity recognition.

Recognition of the legal status of children outside of marriage is regulated in Article 280 of the Civil Code and Islamic Law does not recognize the recognition of children outside of marriage which is regulated in Article 100 of the Compilation of Islamic Law, so that the legal consequences that arise later are different. A child outside of marriage is a child born to his parents without a legal marriage between the father and mother. Therefore, the child does not have the status or position in law as a legitimate child. This type of research conducted by the author is Empirical Juridical Research, namely research by studying, investigating and studying according to what has been determined by the applicable regulations and real facts that occur in the community with the aim to learn and find data and real events that actually happened, with use the legal approach and case approach. In the results of this research and discussion it is explained that in Positive Law a child outside of marriage can be ratified by a confession, whereas in Islamic Law there is no recognition. Recognition of children outside of marriage in Positive Law raises the result of the endorsement and the resulting relationship with the legal consequences. Whereas in Islamic Law the law of an out-of-wedlock child is not entitled to obtain lineage relationship, livelihood, inheritance rights and others from his biological father because it only has a lineage relationship with his mother and his mother's family, but if the biological father wants to give part of his property, this can be done through a will. Related to the difference between the recognition of Positive Law and Islamic Law, it is considered necessary to pay attention, because of the importance of recognition of children outside of marriage, which results in civil rights in the future. Then later the child outside of marriage also gets the distribution of inheritance (inheritance), guardianship rights and other rights. The government through legislation also needs to pay attention to the management of the inheritance (inheritance) of children outside of marriage so that it becomes an absolute right for children outside of marriage in the future.

Земельное право коренных народов в Югре возникло в противовес нефтегазовому освоению и растущему отчуждению земель. Принятое в 1992 г. Положение о статусе родовых угодий расценивалось как юридическая основа для поддержки традиционного природопользования и идентичности хантов и манси. Наибольшее распространение угодья получили в центральных и восточных районах округа, где проживали ханты. В западных районах, где проживали манси, родовые угодья не получили широкого распространения, и статья объясняет причины этого дисбаланса. На примере Кондинского и Березовского районов описана экономическая и этническая обстановка, определившая отличие западных районов от восточных; показаны специфические проблемы выделения родовых угодий, разные решения администраций, отдельно разобран случай родовиков села Болчары. Современное состояние родовых угодий описано на основе наблюдений, интервью с владельцами, а также на материалах функционального зонирования территорий традиционного природопользования ХМАО-Югры. Статья характеризует юридическо-экономический контекст, в котором родовые угодья существуют четверть века, иллюстрируя постепенное выхолащивание изначальной идеи из-за изменений законодательства. Показано расхождение между концепцией традиционного природопользования как задачи по самообеспечению индигенных домохозяйств и реалиями рыночной экономики, которые требуют ведения товарного хозяйства или внешних источников дохода. Родовые угодья стали дорогим инвестиционным проектом с непонятным целеполаганием. Большая часть наследственных владельцев не может или не знает, как использовать земли. The special land law for indigenous peoples of Yugra was written in 1992 and became a counterweight to the development of the oil and gas industry and the growing alienation of natural land. As early as 1989, a third of the Okrug’s territory was reserved for indigenous land management. The «Regulation about the status of family lands in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug» defined ‘rodovye ugod’ya‘ (family lands) as a natural-territorial complex where indigenous people have historically led a traditional life. Family lands were regarded as the basis for traditional nature management, and a space for preserving the original culture. By 1999, 465 family lands had been allocated, taking up half of the Surgut and Nefteyugansk districts and a quarter of the Nizhnevartovsk district. These were the lands of the historical residence of the Hanty. In the west of Yugra, in the Kondinsky and Berezovsky districts (where the Mansi mostly lived), the family lands occupied 3.3 and 16.4% of the area. The article analyzes what caused the disproportions. On the example of the Kondinsky and Berezovsky districts, the economic and ethnic situation that determined the difference between the western and eastern parts is described. I mark the specific problems of allocating ancestral lands, the special decisions of the administrations, and the case of five family lands from the Bolchary village is separately analyzed. In 2001, the Regulation on Family Lands was absorbed by the Federal law on Territories of Traditional Nature Use. The article describes the difficulties that arose during the change of jurisdiction and discusses the disputed status of the owners (ex-rodoviki). The final legal status was obtained only after the functional zoning of the territories of traditional nature use (ex-family lands) in 2015. The result of the work was a set of special maps showing the exact boundaries, the size of forage and pasture zones, and the number of indigenous people permanently residing on the land. These data showed that in the western regions of the KhMAO-Yugra, the family lands did not fulfill their original task of creating reserves for original culture and traditional nature management. In 2014, less than 0.5% of the indigenous population lived permanently on family lands, and their contribution to the traditional economy was insignificant. The article uses specific examples to analyze the reasons why the concept of traditional nature management turned out to be inoperable. The differences between the concept of traditional nature management created by the state and the realities of the existence of ancestral lands are shown.

The article considers the legal status of the parent as a special legal status determined by family law of the Russian Federation. Attention is drawn to the heterogeneity of the legal status of the parent and the possibility of distinguishing in it a number of independent, having their own characteristics, sub-statuses: the status of an adult and a minor parent, full and limited status of a parent, the status of a parent living together with a child, and a parent living separately from a child. The concept of parent is characterized, the need to determine it by indicating not only consanguinity, but the totality of legal facts or to establish the origin of the child. Parental rights and obligations are distinguished as elements of the family legal status of the parent, non-property and property rights, basic and derivative rights, non-property and property obligations of parents are analyzed. Given the existing approaches to determining the legal status and its structure, it is proposed to determine the family legal status of the parent. Measures are outlined to optimize the family-legal position of the parent in terms of ensuring the enforceability of the obligation to support the child and establishing the obligation to compensate for moral damage caused to the child and the other parent.

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract in English only.In response to Engelhardt’s emphasis of the status of family in the bioethics and culture war, I would argue that Confucianism takes the family as the basic social ethical unit, which circumscribes not only the individual’s interpersonal responsibilities within the family, but also everyone’s social and political relations at large. Family is both the starting point and the end point of one’s life, hence we have responsibilities of filial piety to our parents and to nurture our children. Through mutual responsibilities, the family provides shelter, provisions, safety, loyalty, affection, and moral support for its members. Such an ethical family provides the best education and balanced character development for the child, which leads to a prosperous and fruitful life. Hence, it is more than just to give the family the legal status in a family member’s medical and bioethical decisions. Chinese traditional medical practice demands that physicians treat a patient and the patient’s family as relatives with great empathy and affection. The ideal is a Confucian doctor. Bioethical and medical decisions are determined within the family in a harmonious fashion and to the greatest benefit of the patient.DOWNLOAD HISTORY | This article has been downloaded 153 times in Digital Commons before migrating into this platform.
