Methodological principles of national security of Ukraine: transformation of legislation and worldview
The article emphasizes the peculiarities of defining the conceptual foundations of the transformation of legislation and the worldview of civil society into national security policy during the struggle for the preservation of Ukrainian independence. Since the problem of ensuring national security is one of the most strategically important for the country’s development today. It focuses on the entire complexity of the transformation process in Ukraine, being both a condition and a goal of state reform. The condition is that deep transformations require the concentration of all forces and means on solving creative tasks. The condition is that deep transformations require the concentration of all forces and means on solving creative tasks. Their distraction to neutralize or parry threats significantly complicates, and sometimes makes impossible, successful progress along the chosen path. Ensuring national security to a certain extent is the goal of reform, the content of which should be subordinated to strengthening the sovereignty, territorial integrity of the country, creating internal and external conditions that guarantee stability and steady progressive development of the individual, society and the state.
In particular, when defining national security, two approaches are distinguished: «in substance» — through the concept of «state of security» and «in form» — as a system of normative, organizational, institutional guarantees (measures) that ensure the stable development of constitutionalism, protection of the constitutional order. Combining these two approaches, it is possible to define national security in the most general form as a state of protection of the constitutional order and a system of normative, organizational, institutional guarantees (measures) that ensure its protection.
Key words: national security, transformation of legislation, transformation of consciousness, methodological principles of security, threats to national security, challenges to national security, law, society, state.
