SCIENTIFIC APPROACHES TO THE IMPROVEMENT OF STATE POLICY MECHANISMS IN THE SPHERE OF DIGITALIZATION OF LEGAL REGULATION IN UKRAINE

Abstract

The article presents the results of the identification of scientific approaches to the improvement of state policy mechanisms in the field of digitalization of legal regulation in Ukraine (interdisciplinary and complex approaches). The definition of these approaches was carried out taking into account, on the one hand, the general principles of the science “Public management and administration” (regarding the construction of the system and mechanisms of state policy). And on the other hand, the requirements of modern times to facilitate the provision of administrative services to the population, especially socially vulnerable categories of citizens. The basis for defining such approaches, in fact, are the methodological principles that the mechanisms of state policy set in motion its system. It was found that it includes the purpose, principles, tasks, functions, methods, means, forms, etc. It is substantiated that digitalization and its technologies are the result of social development, as well as law, the state, etc. This result requires the formation and functioning of institutional mechanisms of state policy in the field of digitalization of legal regulation. On this basis, the necessity of separating legal and organizational subsystems within these mechanisms has been proven. It was found that their current functioning is not effective, especially in relation to socially vulnerable categories of citizens who found themselves in the occupied territories. At the same time, he insists on the interdependence of organizational and legal subsystems of state policy in the field of digitalization of legal regulation. Among the directions for the development of mechanisms of state policy regarding the digitalization of such regulation, those related to social and pension provision in Ukraine are identified first of all. The following can reasonably be attributed to these directions: 1) ensuring the efficiency and comprehensiveness of the provision of administrative services by state institutions to the population in the field of social and pension provision; 2) reduction of social tension due to untimely or complicated satisfaction of public interests; 3) ensuring rational use of the “portfolio” of resources aimed at social and pension provision of the population.
