Legal status of artificial intelligence carriers: ontological and prognotic aspects
type: item
description: Problem setting. Artificial intelligence is developing rapidly, not only transforming various fields of knowledge and social life, but even revolutionizing them. The emergence of generative artificial intelligence, such as GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) and GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks), makes it possible to create new content autonomously even in areas that have traditionally been considered, so to speak, “exclusively human,” and that are directly related to the most important and sensitive issues, namely human life, health, and safety. Examples include the pharmaceutical industry, personalized medicine, and research aimed at addressing climate change and sustainable development, among others. In connection with the rapid development of artificial intelligence technologies, humanity is facing new problems as well as ethical and social challenges, such as privacy, algorithmic bias, and the need for global governance. In the context of these global transformations, both at the national and international levels, intense debates are taking place within academic circles, and various approaches to the legal regulation of artificial intelligence are being developed. These approaches are usually based on ethical principles and safety standards. In light of these trends, there is an emerging and increasingly urgent call to understand the legal status of artificial intelligence entities and to ensure their implementation within the legal system. Given the rapid development of artificial intelligence technologies at the current stage of societal development, it can be assumed that in the near future new paradigms and separate legal regimes may be required to develop legal procedures related to artificial intelligence entities. Therefore, under conditions of the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies, a number of issues are arising and becoming increasingly relevant, particularly those related to determining the legal status of artificial …

The issue of determining the form of a contract for the hire of a vehicle with a crew to which an individual entrepreneur is a party
type: item
description: Problem setting. The legal status of an individual entrepreneur in its civil law dimension is quite controversial. On the one hand, an individual entrepreneur is a person; therefore, the peculiarities of their legal status are often defined only as a ‘superstructure’ over the legal status of an individual. On the other hand, the legislator has extended the regulation of those normative legal acts that govern the entrepreneurial activity of legal entities, whose peculiarities of legal status are determined by their differences from individuals, to the activities of individual entrepreneurs. One of the problems caused by an individual entrepreneur’s dual legal status is determining the form of the contract. This problem arises in cases where the contract requires notarisation, and the need for such certification is made dependent by law on its subject matter. This problem also arises in a contract for the hire (lease) of a vehicle with a crew, for which the law requires notarisation when the party to the contract is a natural person. Analyses of recent research and publications. The problem of determining the form of a contract for the hire (lease) of a vehicle with a crew, to which an individual entrepreneur is a party, has not yet been the subject of separate scientific research. Within the scope of their own research, scholars such as L.L. Tarasenko, I.A. Selivanova, V.M. Kossak, and N.S. Kuznetsova, Z.V. Romovska, and D.V. Bobrova have drawn attention to the problem caused by the dual legal status of individual entrepreneurs. At the same time, in the context of a contract for the hire (lease) of a vehicle with a crew, this issue has not yet been comprehensively studied. Although the issue raised has been the subject of some research and has been repeatedly reviewed by the courts, it not only retains its theoretical and practical significance, but also becomes even more acute after the Economic Code of Ukraine ceased to be in force. The purpose of the study. The ke…

EU taxonomy as an instrument of sustainable finance: prospects for implementation in Ukraine
type: item
description: Problem setting. The global transition toward environmentally sustainable economic activities is driven by the need to protect the environment and reduce dependence on fossil fuels. The EU Taxonomy has become a central regulatory tool for directing capital into green and climate-neutral projects and now serves as a reference point for countries seeking closer integration with European financial markets. Ukraine faces the task of adapting this framework to its legal system, which is essential both for meeting EU integration commitments and for attracting investment into post-war reconstruction, particularly in renewable energy. Analysis of recent research and publications. The development of a national taxonomy of sustainable activities and the principles of sustainable finance has been addressed by Ukrainian scholars such as A.A. Honta, M.Yu. Hryhorak, O. I. Volovyk, I. O. Makarenko, R.M. Fominov, N.V. Trushkina, H. P. Bortnikov, T. V. Oriekhova ta O. M. Riabchyn. Purpose of research. To examine the development process, legal mechanisms, and institutional architecture of the EU Taxonomy, to assess the state of its implementation in Ukraine, and to formulate recommendations for introducing a national taxonomy of sustainable economic activities. Article’s main body. The article examines the evolution, legal mechanisms, and institutional architecture of the EU Taxonomy as a classifier of sustainable economic activities, including Regulation (EU) 2020/852 and the relevant delegated acts. It demonstrates the Taxonomy’s integration into financial and corporate disclosure regimes under the Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). The role of the European Commission, the Platform on Sustainable Finance, the Member States Expert Group, and the European Supervisory Authorities in shaping and updating technical screening criteria is characterized. Emphasis is placed on the market effect of transparency: altho…

Some problems of legal regulation of the activities of authorized bodies in the sphere of ensuring competition in the electricity market of Ukraine
type: item
description: Problem setting. Ukraine has long paid considerable attention to the creation of legal prerequisites for the establishment and operation of relevant institutions authorized to protect and ensure competition in the electricity market of Ukraine. This is highlighted in several regulatory legal acts. However, as of now, the formation of a fully competitive electricity market in our country has not been completed, which is associated, among other things, with some problems in the activities of relevant authorized bodies in this area. Thus, there is a need to study the issue of legal regulation of the activities of bodies authorized to ensure the protection of competition in the electricity market, identify the main problematic issues and make proposals for improving legislation in this area. Analysis of recent research and publications. Some individual aspects of the issue of ensuring competition in the electricity market of Ukraine have been given attention in the works of Ukrainian scientists. S. Hlibko, A. Chupryna, I. Podrez-Ryapolova studied the problems of sustainable innovative development of the energy system and the role of investment funds in stimulating investments in energy-efficient, renewable, and innovative technologies, which corresponds to Ukraine’s European integration aspirations. D.K. Tkach considered the directions of reforming the electricity market, which began in July 2019, etc. Of course, foreign scientists also paid attention to the issues of the electricity market in the work of Bowen W., Hill E., Thomas A., Liu R., Henning M. the issue of the impact of deregulated electricity markets on consumer prices using the example of individual states of the United States of America was studied. However, despite the large number of publications on this issue, there remain a number of issues that require further development, in particular, legal regulation of the definition of the powers of relevant bodies in ensuring the development and protection of co…

Updating the legal support for humanitarian demining in Ukraine with innovative approaches to land release
type: item
description: Problem setting. The article is devoted to researching the updating of legal support for the application of existing methods and technologies, as well as the improvement of artificial intelligence and other innovative technologies for humanitarian demining in Ukraine. This is critically important for restoring access to and safe use of agricultural land, which is the first priority of humanitarian demining. Analyses of recent researches and publications. The issue of legal support for mine action has been explored in the works of O.M. Botnarenko (on the subjects of mine action), B. Derevianko (on the legal and organisational aspects of demining and land reclamation), S. Poteriaika and A. Okipnyak (mechanisms of state management in the field of mine action). A comprehensive study was presented by Academician V.P. Gorbulin at the beginning of the full-scale war. A thorough description of the subjects of administrative and legal support for mine action in Ukraine based on their current powers was provided by V.I. Teremets and M.Yu. Marchenko. The purpose of this article is to examine the peculiarities and formulate proposals for updating the legal framework for humanitarian demining in Ukraine with innovative approaches to land release based on Ukrainian demining experience. Article’s main body. The article is devoted to the study of updating the legal support for humanitarian demining in Ukraine with innovative approaches to land release. It has been established that modern legislation began to lay the fundamental foundations for mine action in 2018 with the adoption of the basic Law of Ukraine ‘On Mine Action in Ukraine’, which establishes general norms, while details and instructions for use are established by international and national standards. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of innovative approaches and technologies for land release. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Thus, during a full-scale invasion, Ukrainian legislation is logically…

Legal ensurance of compliance with environmental requirements in land use
type: item
description: Problem setting. The state of Ukraine’s land resources is determined by large-scale degradation, pollution and destruction of soils, largely caused by the Russian military aggression. The military consequences are complemented by traditional problems soil erosion, irrational agricultural use, violations of the regimes of nature reserves and weak state control. The deterioration of the state of lands creates threats to food, environmental and economic security. Therefore, it is necessary to further improve the legal regulation of sustainable land use and the restoration of damaged lands. Analysis of recent research and publications. The problems of anthropogenic impact on land, its degradation, and measures for soil restoration are covered in detail in the works of many scientists, including N. Gavrysh, A. Getman, O. Donets, V. Yermolenko, I. Karakash, P. Kulynich, V. Nosik, and others. Scientific works outline ways to increase soil fertility, protect different categories of land, and improve legal regulation. Purpose of research. The purpose of the article is to analyze existing legal mechanisms for ensuring compliance with environmental requirements in the field of land use, identify and study problems of its legal support, assess the effectiveness of current legislation and its practical application in ensuring environmental protection during land use. Article’s main body. The article substantiates that the legal support of environmental requirements for land use is formed by a complex of regulatory legal acts of various legal force, among which the Land Code of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine “On Land Protection”, the Law of Ukraine “On Environmental Protection”, as well as strategic documents of environmental and agrarian policy are of key importance. Analysis of the provisions of the Strategy of State Environmental Policy until 2030, the Concept of the National Program for Land Use and Protection and the Strategy for the Development of Agriculture and Rural Territo…

Evolution of the legal mechanism for providing partial unemployment benefits in Ukraine during 2012-2025
type: item
description: Problem setting. The dynamic change in Ukraine’s legal mechanism for providing partial unemployment benefits between 2012 and 2025 was the result of the state’s response to internal and external factors affecting employment levels. However, this evolution was accompanied by the adoption of several regulations, not all of which were equally effective. The application of some of these regulations restricted individuals’ constitutional right to social protection in the event of job loss. Therefore, studying the evolution of the legal mechanism for providing partial unemployment benefits will reveal existing shortcomings in the current regulations and outline areas for improvement in the context of martial law and postwar recovery. Analyses of recent research. In legal science, the issue of partial unemployment benefits is primarily examined in the context of employment relations and social protection against unemployment by scholars such as V. Venediktov, P. Pylypenko, N. Khutoryan, R. Shabanov, O. Yaroshenko, and others. However, comprehensive scientific studies devoted to the mechanism of providing partial unemployment benefits are rare, making further scientific analysis relevant. The article aims to provide a thorough analysis of innovations introduced between 2012 and 2025 into the legal mechanism for providing partial unemployment benefits and law enforcement practices to compare them with the positions of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine and propose directions for its possible further reform in the context of martial law and post-war reconstruction. Article’s main body. This article provides an analysis of the evolution of Ukraine’s legal mechanism for partial unemployment benefits from 2012 to 2025. It examines changes in legislation, judicial practices, constitutional guarantees of the right to social protection, and the legal positions of the Constitutional Court of Ukraine. Particular attention is given to the transformation of the legal regulation of the…

Abuse of procedural rights by an attorney as grounds for imposing a fine on a law firm in civil proceedings
type: item
description: Problem Statement An analysis of recent scholarship on the category of abuse of procedural rights demonstrates both the widespread nature and the conceptual elusiveness of this phenomenon. D. Luspenyk observes that abuse of procedural rights (delaying the proceedings, undertaking “procedural sabotage”) is a highly subjective and evaluative concept. When determining whether a party has abused procedural rights, the court proceeds from its internal conviction— that is, from a discretionary assessment based on the evidence. A counterbalance to the abuse of procedural rights is the principle of the good-faith exercise of such rights, which is recognized as a normative standard of judicial procedure . It is appropriate to agree with Ya. Panaid that existing doctrinal approaches to defining abuse of procedural rights may be grouped into two categories: a) approaches treating abuse of procedural rights as a legal offense; and b) approaches whose proponents interpret abuse of procedural rights as a mode of exercising a procedural right, which becomes abusive upon the failure to satisfy certain socio-legal conditions.When defining abuse of procedural rights, its contextual linkage with the duty of good-faith exercise of procedural rights by participants and their representatives must be taken into account. In our view, this reflects the division found in scholarly literature and judicial case-law: abuse of procedural rights may denote either the inconsistency between the result of exercising a procedural right and the objectives of civil litigation, or the unlawfulness of the participant’s conduct. Analysis of Recent Research and Publications. The issue of abuse of procedural rights has been addressed in numerous publications, including those authored by N. Banchynska, D. Luspenyk, Ya. Bernazyuk, V. Komarov, T. Tsuina, N. Sakara, Ya. Panaid, and A. Tkachuk. Much fewer studies have focused on abuse of procedural rights by attorneys specifically, including works by V. Zaborovs…

Manifestation of the principle of equal rights and opportunities during employment
type: item
description: Problem setting. Equality of rights and opportunities is a fundamental principle of labor law, which guarantees nondiscriminatory access to labor and is the basis of a stable labor market. In Ukraine, its importance is growing in the context of harmonization of legislation with EU norms and the challenges of wartime. Despite the legislative consolidation, the effectiveness of the principle is limited by existing hidden forms of discrimination, insufficient control and difficulties of judicial protection. In view of these challenges, especially in conditions of martial law, scientific analysis and development of effective mechanisms for ensuring equality in the labor sphere are necessary both from a theoretical and practical point of view. Analyses of recent researches and publications. The issue of equality of rights and opportunities in the labor sphere has been widely reflected in the scientific works of domestic scientists, in particular V. Andriyiv, M. Baru, N. Vapnyarchuk, N. Getmantseva, L. Gruzinova, I. Dmitrieva, V. Zhernakov, T. Zanfirova, Z. Kozak, V. Korotkina, G. Mytrytska, P. Pylypenko, V. Prokopenka, O. Protsevsky, O. Yaroshenko, etc. A significant number of studies are devoted to the analysis of legal mechanisms for preventing discrimination, guarantees for the implementation of labor rights, and practical aspects of applying the principle of equality in labor relations. Article’s main body – research into the content of the principle of equal rights and opportunities during employment, as well as one of the key manifestations of its violation unjustified refusal of employment. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Compliance with the principle of equal rights and opportunities must be implemented at all stages of labour relations: when hiring, transferring to another job, paying for labour and dismissing. Since ensuring equal rights and opportunities in the labour sphere is a mandatory requirement of a democratic state based on the rule of l…

Digitalization of labor procedures as a mechanism for reducing corruption risks
type: item
description: Problem setting. The digital transformation of social processes, which has become one of the defining characteristics of the 21st century, fundamentally changes not only the technological but also the social and legal foundations of state and labor market functioning. Its influence is noticeable in almost all areas of life, but it is particularly significant in the field of employment relations, where digitalization does not merely contribute to the modernization of traditional procedures but forms a new paradigm of labor management based on automation, transparency, and standardization of processes. Analysis of recent researches and publications. The issue of the digitalization of labor procedures and its impact on minimizing corruption risks is being actively developed in the works of contemporary domestic and foreign researchers. The understanding has been established in the academic doctrine that the digitalization of HR processes is not merely a technical improvement but a tool for increasing the transparency, unification, and reproducibility of labor decisions. A significant contribution to the development of the theoretical foundations for the use of digital technologies and automated systems for optimizing human resource management processes (hereinafter – digital HRM) has been made by T. Bondarouk and C. Brewster, who substantiated the conceptual shift from traditional human resource management to data-driven systems that minimize the human factor and ensure the algorithmic nature of procedures. The works of S. Strohmeier examine the process of transforming the philosophy of labor management, where openness, analytics, and the standardization of HR decisions play a key role. The research of P. Cappelli, P. Tambe, and V. Yakubovich focuses on the impact of HR data analytics and automated decisions on the formation of personnel policy, emphasizing new opportunities for predicting employee behavior and establishing transparent evaluation criteria. An important…

Legal support for labor relations with professional athletes: features and prospects for development at the international level
type: item
description: Problem setting. The work of professional athletes is a global phenomenon that affects all countries of the civilized world. Their professional sports activities occupy a special place in the socio-economic and cultural life of any developed state, as they are a special sphere that combines the features of labor, entrepreneurship, creativity and public representation of the state. Labor relations with athletes are characterized by specific working conditions and have a fairly extensive system of legal regulation, so difficulties arise in resolving them. This necessitates the need for special legal regulation, which will clearly define the nature of such relations. Analyses of recent researches and publications. Certain aspects of the legal regulation of labor relations with professional athletes have been reflected in the works of such scholars as: P. Bushchenko, N. Vapnyarchuk, N. Getmantsev, V. Zhernakov, M. Inshin, K. Melnyk, S. Prylypko, O. Protsevsky, G. Chanysheva, O. Yaroshenko, etc. At the same time, the features of concluding an employment contract with an employee-athlete within the framework of international cooperation have not been fully studied, especially taking into account today’s realities. Article’s main body. Revealing the features of legal support for labor relations with professional athletes, both at the national and international levels. And conducting an analysis of international legal standards to determine the prospects for the development of national legislation of Ukraine to ensure decent working conditions for employee athletes. Conclusions and prospects for the development. In this article, the author assesses the importance of studying the legal regulation of labor relations in the field of professional sports both at the state level and at the level of international cooperation. Since in the modern world, sport has become not only a popular social phenomenon, but also a powerful economic phenomenon that covers a significant number of…

Ranking of research infrastructure entities in Ukraine: certain legal aspects
type: item
description: Problem setting. The issues of rating research infrastructure entities are becoming particularly relevant in the context of the need to ensure proper development and restoration of scientific potential in Ukraine. It should be agreed that the state of scientific potential is one of the most important resources for sustainable and safe development and a factor that determines the prospects of any country, at the same time determining the most adequate tools for assessing scientific activity and implementing them in practice is a difficult task for managers in the field of science. The above emphasizes the importance of building an effective system for rating research infrastructure entities and the need for legal regulation of this process. At the same time, the absence of a legally defined system for rating research infrastructure entities makes it impossible to effectively implement state policy on the development of research infrastructures and requires the development of clear legal criteria, procedures and institutional mechanisms. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Certain theoretical and applied issues of rating in the field of scientific and educational activities have been examined by representatives of various branches of law, economics, and other social sciences. For instance, M. V. Makarov analyzed terminology in the context of Ukrainian regulatory acts, such as the Law of Ukraine “On Scientific and Scientific-Technical Activities,” the Law of Ukraine “On Higher Education,” and the Code of Ethics of the Scientist of Ukraine. He considered issues related to the professional qualifications and academic careers of scholars and researchers in Ukraine and concluded that it is necessary to develop a unified conceptual framework of terminology that would correspond to contemporary trends in the development of science and take into account international experience. According to the author, the implementation of such changes will enhance transparency …

Legal status of ukrainian researcher-refugees in the European Union during the war and under temporary protection
type: item
description: The article examines the legal position of Ukrainian researchers who, following the full-scale war launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine, found themselves in European Union Member States under temporary protection or with refugee status. The aim is to clarify the scope of their labour and academic rights, compare the legal regimes of temporary protection and refugee status in terms of access to employment and education, and outline national regulatory specificities in Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic. The methodology combines formal-legal, comparative-law, systemic and structural-functional approaches. The study argues that the combination of humanitarian status and the need to ensure continuity of research activity gives rise to a doctrinal category—the “researcher-refugee.” It shows that temporary protection ensures rapid access to residence, work, education and basic social guarantees but is time-limited and does not by itself secure long-term integration; refugee status, by contrast, offers broader and more durable guarantees. Case studies of Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic reveal a hybrid model that couples humanitarian guarantees with dedicated academic instruments (facilitated university employment, scholarship and grant schemes, accelerated recognition of qualifications). Nonetheless, barriers persist regarding credential recognition, unequal access to competitive funding, and divergent institutional practices. The article’s novelty lies in conceptualising the category of the “Ukrainian researcher-refugee” and proposing a European framework for supporting displaced researchers. Its practical value is reflected in recommendations for harmonising EU Member State policies and for designing a national strategy in Ukraine aimed at support, cooperation, and future reintegration of researchers. Problem Setting. The full-scale war launched by the Russian Federation against Ukraine in February 2022 has caused an unprecedented wave of force…

Ethics and law: how legislation affects compliance with ethical standards in science
type: item
description: Problem setting. The intersection of ethics and law in scientific research has become a critical area of study as the complexities of modern science continue to evolve. With advancements in technology, increasing public scrutiny, and a growing emphasis on ethical practices, researchers face significant challenges in adhering to ethical standards while navigating legal frameworks. The problem lies in understanding how legislation influences ethical compliance within scientific communities and the implications of this relationship for research integrity, public trust, and societal impact. This publication aims to explore these dynamics and assess the effectiveness of current legal measures in promoting ethical behavior among researchers. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Recent studies have highlighted the intricate relationship between legal regulations and ethical standards in scientific research. For instance, the article “The Role of Ethics in Scientific Research: A Global Perspective” (2022) emphasizes the necessity for international ethical codes to guide researchers, suggesting that a lack of uniform standards can lead to unethical practices, such as data fabrication and plagiarism. Moreover, “The Role of Legislation in Promoting Ethical Research Practices” (2023) provides empirical evidence showing that countries with stringent ethical legislation report fewer instances of misconduct. This research underscores the importance of legal frameworks in establishing accountability mechanisms that encourage adherence to ethical norms. Conversely, gaps in legal oversight are also documented. The publication “Legal Gaps in Ethical Oversight of Scientific Research” (2021) identifies significant shortcomings in many national laws that fail to adequately address ethical violations, allowing for a culture of impunity among researchers. Furthermore, “Public Trust in Science: The Role of Ethics and Law” (2023) illustrates that the public’s confidence in scienti…

Assessment of resources of higher education institutions as scientific and research infrastructure
type: item
description: Problem statement. The relevance of the problem of assessing the resources of higher education institutions as a research infrastructure is due to the need to implement the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding Support for Scientific Work in Higher Education Institutions”. Status of the development of the problem. An analysis of similar and/or related problems was conducted, which was carried out by scientists A.P. Getman, I.V. Podrez-Ryapolova, A.M. Lyubchych, as well as S.M. Nikolaenko, who has experience as the Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine in 2005-2007 and was the Chairman of the Committee on Education and Science of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine in 2002-2005. Purpose of the article. Popularization of the problem of assessing the resources of higher education institutions as a research infrastructure through a scientific and practical commentary on the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine Regarding Support for Scientific Work in Higher Education Institutions”, highlighting the problems of attestation of research infrastructures of higher education institutions and substantiating proposals on the criteria for assessing significant scientific achievements achieved by them and by the scientists who are part of them.

The limits of debt policy: balancing the protection of the economic rights of the population and ensuring the financial security of the state
type: item
description: Problem setting. In conditions of high dependence on external lending, Ukraine faces the pressing challenge of reconciling the demands of international financial donors (regarding fiscal reforms and tax increases) with the necessity of ensuring social justice, protecting the economic rights of citizens, and developing a balanced debt policy. Analysis of recent research and publications. The issue of Ukraine’s national debt has been studied by many scholars, but the impact of excessive debt dependence on the country’s economic security and the economic rights of its population remains largely overlooked. The purpose of this article is to define the limits of the state’s debt policy in the context of ensuring a balance between fiscal stability, financial security, and the protection of the economic rights of the population. Article’s main body. The article explores the issue of defining the limits of a state’s debt policy in the context of balancing financial security, fiscal discipline, and the protection of citizens’ economic rights. Based on an analysis of Ukraine’s current public debt situation under wartime economic conditions, the study reveals the essence of debt dependency as a factor influencing economic sovereignty, budgetary stability, and social justice. It examines the suspension of fiscal rules during the war and the exceeding of debt limits established by Ukraine’s Budget Code. It is emphasized that, although such deviations are objectively justified, they pose long-term risks to the country’s financial stability. Particular attention is devoted to analyzing external debt dependency and its impact on citizens’ economic rights through the restriction of state social obligations, increased tax pressure, and rising borrowing costs. The necessity of introducing a legal mechanism for assessing the impact of debt decisions on human rights (Human Rights Impact Assessment) is substantiated as a preventive instrument against the socio-economic consequences of ex…

On the Issue of Transformation of the Social Protection System for War Veterans in Ukraine
type: item
description: Problem setting. The sphere of social protection has always been a key aspect of the formation and implementation of Ukraine’s social policy. The right to social protection guaranteed by Article 46 of the Constitution of Ukraine emphasizes that Ukraine is a social state, the activities of which are aimed at ensuring the right of citizens to social protection. This right includes provision in the event of loss of working capacity, loss of breadwinner, unemployment, old age and other cases stipulated by law. The full-scale invasion of Ukraine has become a challenge for all areas of state policy, including social policy, which is aimed at supporting low-income and socially vulnerable categories of the population. In connection with the conduct of active hostilities and the introduction of martial law throughout the territory of Ukraine, a number of changes were made to the system of legislation in the field of social security for military personnel and war veterans, which have a significant impact on the content and scope of their legal status. In general, the transformation of the social security system for war veterans in Ukraine involves a set of measures aimed at improving social protection and their financial situation. This includes reviewing legislation, introducing new social services, developing a system of benefits, and adapting veterans to civilian life. The conducted study of state veteran policy on the protection of the basic constitutional rights of citizens with the status of war veterans allows us to assert that there are several options for the development of state systems of social protection for war veterans, the priority areas of which should be: a) implementing special legislation; b) ensuring the effectiveness of a special state body; c) creating a digital platform for war veterans; d) reviewing and improving all mechanisms that facilitate war veterans’ access to social benefits. The relevance of the scientific study is due to the rapid increase i…

Legal and moral responsibility in the conditions of development of autonomous artificial intelligence systems
type: item
description: Problem setting. In the context of the development of a digital society, a number of increasingly relevant questions have arisen regarding the development and use of artificial intelligence in relation to morality. The implementation of artificial intelligence systems is expanding in all spheres of society, which also means that questions of responsibility arise in various contexts. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate whether the use of autonomous systems sometimes leads to responsibility-related problems and to what extent it makes sense to assign responsibility to artificial autonomous systems. Analysis of recent researches and publications. The study of issues of legal and moral responsibility in a technological context is quite complex. This is due to the fact that neither academic literature nor legislation provides a unified view on a number of contentious questions that arise when examining this topic. Certain aspects of legal responsibility have been explored in the works of well-known Ukrainian legal scholars, including studies on legal responsibility as a systemic phenomenon (R. Maidanyk), analyses of doctrinal approaches to understanding the essence of legal responsibility (V. Zhornokui), and examinations of legal responsibility as a form of state coercion (V. Nadeon, R. Shyshka), among others. Although there are seven main concepts for understanding legal responsibility as a legal phenomenon, none of them provides answers to the questions associated with the development and use of artificial autonomous intelligent systems. Certain legal aspects related to technology have been addressed in the works of Ukrainian scholars such as D. Adamiuk, H. Androshchuk, O. Davydiuk, B. Paduchak, M. Shvets, and others. In Ukrainian legal scholarship, the issue of moral responsibility in the technological context has been scarcely explored. The analysis of legal and moral responsibility of artificial autonomous systems requires new methodological frameworks. Purpos…

Особливості розподілу прав та обов’язків щодо підтримання придатного стану речі у договорі найму (оренди) транспортного засобу з екіпажем
type: item
description: Problem setting. Studying the impact of public debt on economic security is particularly important, as debt burden directly affects a country’s ability to ensure macroeconomic stability, creditworthiness, and social obligations. The global increase in public debt, especially after the global crises – financial, pandemic, and energy – creates additional risks for the stability of national economies. For Ukraine, this problem is exacerbated by the ongoing war, the destruction of economic infrastructure, and significant external borrowing, which are creating critical levels of debt pressure. Studying debt risks in conditions of geopolitical instability is necessary for developing an effective financial security strategy and maintaining investor and donor confidence. Therefore, this study is important at both the national and international levels. Analyses of recent researches and publications. Various aspects of debt policy and financial security of the state have been studied by many economists and lawyers. Romanovskaya Yu. A. analyzed Ukraine’s public debt in wartime. Kirov B. S. studied aspects of public debt formation and debt security. The management of Ukraine’s public debt in special conditions was studied by Krupyak I. Y. and Krupyak L. B. The analysis of the impact of external debt on the financial stability and national economic security of Ukraine was carried out by Pikulina O. V., Ogdansky K. M., and Pikulina N. Y. The purpose of this article is to study the impact of external and internal public debt on the financial security of the state and to identify areas for optimizing debt policy in order to strengthen financial stability. Article’s main body. The article examines the relationship between the level of public debt and the financial security of the state, which is one of the key components of national economic security. It is argued that the growth of public debt, especially external debt, increases the risks of losing economic sovereignty, intensifie…

Legal support for the use and advancement of artificial intelligence in Ukraine’s demining
type: item
description: Problem setting. One of the biggest problems that significantly limits or even prevents Ukrainian farmers from using natural resources is the high level of mine contamination in large areas. Moreover, effective mine action is significantly hampered by the continuation of hostilities and changes in the front line. These factors cause changes in the areas of suspected and confirmed contaminated territories. Thus, almost a third of Ukraine’s controlled territory needs to be surveyed. Even by rough estimates, humanitarian demining of these territories could take decades and cost billions of dollars. The use of artificial intelligence products for demining, especially if they are improved, could reduce the resources and time required to almost 10 years. Analyses of recent researches and publications. Androshchuk G. explores general strategic issues concerning the role of artificial intelligence in the development of the digital economy, copyright issues for works created with the help of artificial intelligence, and the degree of trust in artificial intelligence. The works of A. Hachkevych and L. Tovkun outline issues of legal regulation and international experience in the implementation of artificial intelligence. Articles by K. Yefremova and O. Chernenko highlight the principles of artificial intelligence development, theoretical approaches to the regulation of artificial intelligence in the EU, and specific issues related to the implementation of artificial intelligence in various fields, including financial systems. The purpose of this article is to study the peculiarities of modern legal support for the use and improvement of artificial intelligence models to enhance safety, quality, and speed up demining in Ukraine. Article’s main body. The article is devoted to the study of legal support for the application of existing technologies, as well as the improvement of artificial intelligence for humanitarian demining in Ukraine. It has been established that legislation …

State’s environmental policy – direct path to the development of green entrepreneurship
type: item
description: Problem setting. The issues of elaborating new models for developing society in the whole remain currently relevant in such difficult conditions. One of the largest problems on a global scale is stable deterioration of the environment, which is related to hazardous industrial entrepreneurship. Given this, it is important for our country to create such conditions for the functioning of the national economy that would allow improving the environmental situation in the country, and therefore would ensure a stable level of its economic growth. In this respect, we are talking about the development of green entrepreneurship – activity that aims to generate profit from selling environmental goods and provision of services that involve the use of methods and technologies that nullify the usage of non-renewable natural resources, and their use contributes to the creation of ecological living conditions for consumers to the greatest possible extent, as well as creates conditions for the development of environmental awareness in society. Analysis of recent researches and publications. While studying the issues of elaborating state environmental policy in Ukraine regarding the development of green entrepreneurship, the main attention is paid to the analysis of its current situation, existing obstacles to the implementation of advanced world practices regarding its improvement and to the need of improving legislation in this area. Modern economic and legal scientific thought is being actively improved in the context of developing a doctrine for the formation and development of a new type of entrepreneurial activity – green entrepreneurship. Thus, the issues of developing the basic principles of the concept of “green” business are actively discussed in the economic literature, while the emphasis in the legal literature is placed on attracting investments into the development and implementation of environmental innovations for improving certain areas of green entrepreneurship.

Development of entrepreneurial initiatives of war veterans: legal aspects of state funding and tax incentives
type: item
description: Problem setting. The stimulation of economic activity by veteran entrepreneurship entities is currently acquiring new features and increased relevance, including with the update of current legislation and strategic development directions in this area. State financing and support of veteran business is becoming a promising direction of state policy and has a direct impact on the renewal of the national economy. The development of veteran business in Ukraine has significant potential, it will contribute to economic growth by creating new industries and addressing societal needs, and will also ensure veterans’ active participation in civilian life. Therefore, it is extremely important to build an effective model for implementing veteran business with the help of an effective regulatory and tax framework. Analysis of recent research. Research on the issues of providing state support to war veterans has been conducted by many scientists. For example, O. Yu. Illarionov analyzed the legal principles of supporting and developing veteran business. V. I. Sheverdina conducted a study of domestic veteran policy on the protection of the basic constitutional rights of citizens who have the status of war veterans. V. P. Kokhan studied the issue of employment of war veterans and identified three areas of return of war veterans to work as a result of their professional adaptation: traditional employment in the form of hired labor in accordance with the Labor Code of Ukraine; employment under non-standard employment conditions and the establishment and development of veteran entrepreneurship. In the current conditions of martial law, the issues of developing entrepreneurial initiatives of war veterans are becoming particularly relevant and require additional scientific research. The article aims to conduct a legal analysis and scientific research on the issues of state financing and tax incentives for the development of entrepreneurial initiatives of war veterans in Ukraine.

Support for entrepreneurial activities of war veterans: status of legal provisions and prospective legislation
type: item
description: Formulation of the problem. Supporting the return of war veterans to civilian life, stimulating and supporting their economic activity in general, and entrepreneurial activity in particular, is an extremely important direction of state veteran policy. Currently, the legislation regulating the entrepreneurial activities of war veterans in Ukraine is only being formed. Therefore, many problematic issues arise that require the development of an effective mechanism for their resolution. The purpose of the study. Based on an analysis of scientific literature, domestic and foreign experience in supporting war veterans, to substantiate proposals for improving legislation on veteran entrepreneurship, in particular, the concept of veteran entrepreneurship, and resolving other legal problems in this area. Analysis of previous studies and publications. Domestic legal science pays considerable attention to the issue of veteran entrepreneurship. Thus, on June 30, 2025, at the Research Institute of Legal Support for Innovative Development of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, within the framework of a round table dedicated to the legal support of professional adaptation and the right to entrepreneurial activity of war veterans [2], a range of issues regarding various aspects of veteran entrepreneurship were discussed. Among them: the creation of a legal mechanism for state support of veterans’ entrepreneurial activities (Podrez-Ryapolova I.V.), certain legal aspects of applying international experience in state support for the development of the entrepreneurial potential of veterans (Kolisnyk A. S.), comparative analysis of support for veteran entrepreneurship in Ukraine and the countries of the European Union (Zagorui I. S., Zagorui L. M.), challenges and reality of legal support for entrepreneurial activity and social adaptation of disabled war veterans (Salinko G.O., Shapovalova O.V.), wartime tax innovations as a risk for veterans’ exercise of the right to entrepren…

The concept of “bullishing” in Ukrainian legislation: problems of definition and law enforcement
type: item
description: Problem setting. On June 6, 2024, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine on the Prevention of Violence and the Elimination of Cruelty to Children” № 3793-ИХ. The consequence of this regulatory legal act was the removal of the concept of “bullying” from Article 1 of the Law of Ukraine “On Education”. Instead, the term “bullying” was included in the Law of Ukraine “On the Protection of Childhood”. So, now the definition of the concept of “bullying” at the legal level is contained in the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses and in the Law of Ukraine “On the Protection of Childhood”. It should be noted that in international legal documents and in national legislation, a child is considered a person under the age of eighteen. This means that, given the age of the students, which may go beyond the concept of “minor” or “child”, that is, over 18 years old, the definition of the concept of “bullying”, which is enshrined in the legislation, is obviously imperfect, since its subject composition does not include adults studying in educational institutions. Such imperfection has negative legal consequences, since in the event of establishing the fact of bullying with the participation of an adult person a member of the staff of an educational institution, it makes it impossible to bring him to administrative responsibility. That is why the definition of this term needs to be improved and included in Article 1 of the Law of Ukraine “On Education”. Analysis of recent researches and publications Bullying as a social phenomenon is thoroughly covered in the works of such foreign and Ukrainian scientists as H. Leimann, D. Olweus, E. Roland, A. Barlit, A. Kvasha, K. Ye. Nazarchuk, M. V. Zelenska, M. D. Vasilyeva, etc. In recent years, legal experts have been engaged in the issues of combating and preventing bullying, in particular, O. Ivanii, I. Lubenetsi, O. V. Lutsiv, I. G. Bukhtiyarova, M. V. Prykhodko, O. G. Strelch…

Responsible debt policy and the financial security of the state
type: item
description: Problem setting. Studying the impact of public debt on economic security is particularly important, as debt burden directly affects a country’s ability to ensure macroeconomic stability, creditworthiness, and social obligations. The global increase in public debt, especially after the global crises – financial, pandemic, and energy – creates additional risks for the stability of national economies. For Ukraine, this problem is exacerbated by the ongoing war, the destruction of economic infrastructure, and significant external borrowing, which are creating critical levels of debt pressure. Studying debt risks in conditions of geopolitical instability is necessary for developing an effective financial security strategy and maintaining investor and donor confidence. Therefore, this study is important at both the national and international levels. Analyses of recent researches and publications. Various aspects of debt policy and financial security of the state have been studied by many economists and lawyers. Romanovskaya Yu. A. analyzed Ukraine’s public debt in wartime. Kirov B. S. studied aspects of public debt formation and debt security. The management of Ukraine’s public debt in special conditions was studied by Krupyak I. Y. and Krupyak L. B. The analysis of the impact of external debt on the financial stability and national economic security of Ukraine was carried out by Pikulina O. V., Ogdansky K. M., and Pikulina N. Y. The purpose of this article is to study the impact of external and internal public debt on the financial security of the state and to identify areas for optimizing debt policy in order to strengthen financial stability. Article’s main body. The article examines the relationship between the level of public debt and the financial security of the state, which is one of the key components of national economic security.

Legal aspects of naturalization of Ukrainian scientists in EU member states
type: item
description: The article examines the legal aspects of the naturalization of Ukrainian scientists in the European Union member states following the beginning of the armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine in 2022. It analyzes the scale of scientific migration, the dynamics of researchers’ relocation, and the formation of the Ukrainian scientific diaspora in the EU. Special attention is paid to the legal status of Ukrainian scholars abroad, the functioning of the temporary protection mechanism, and its impact on the citizenship acquisition process. The paper defines the essence and legal nature of naturalization in European law, outlines the procedural aspects of citizenship acquisition by scientists, compares naturalization conditions across several EU states (in particular Germany, France, Poland, and Portugal), and highlights the specific features of the legal position of individuals who have undergone naturalization. The legal consequences of naturalization for Ukrainian scientists are examined, including the loss of Ukrainian citizenship, changes in tax and social status, expansion of academic rights within EU citizenship, and the formation of a new model of a mobile European researcher of Ukrainian origin. It is emphasized that, for Ukraine, the naturalization of scientists abroad represents a serious challenge associated with the outflow of intellectual capital, the weakening of the national scientific system, and the threat of losing human potential. The conclusions justify the need for the development of a state policy to support the Ukrainian scientific diaspora, create legal mechanisms for maintaining the connection between naturalized scholars and Ukraine, and gradually revise the concept of citizenship in view of modern academic and migration realities. Problem Setting. After 2022, the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine caused a large-scale displacement of Ukrainian citizens, including a significant number of scientists and researchers. The iss…
