Formation and Development of the Organizational and Legal Mechanism for the Protection of Human Information Rights and Freedoms in Ukraine
Abstract
The article is devoted to the formation and development of the organizational and legal mechanism for the protection of information rights and human freedoms in Ukraine. It is established that information has become an important resource in modern society, determining the development of not only economic, but also social, cultural and political processes, which creates the need for clear legal regulation of information rights and human freedoms, respectively, the right to access information, its processing and dissemination are fundamental for ensuring democracy and the development of civil society. The article emphasizes that the development of technologies and globalization require constant improvement and adaptation of legal norms related to the protection of information rights of humans, in order to effectively respond to new challenges in the digital environment. The development of the information society is impossible without the development and implementation of relevant legal norms that ensure a balance between freedom of information and the protection of human rights. It is emphasized that the formation and development of the organizational and legal mechanism for the protection of information rights and human freedoms is a necessary component of the legal system of any democratic state that seeks to ensure the protection of fundamental human rights and freedoms, in particular, in the conditions of the development of information technologies. It is determined that the organizational and legal mechanism for the protection of human rights and freedoms encompasses a set of measures, instruments and regulatory legal acts that ensure the implementation, protection and restoration of violated rights in the information sphere. The specific features of the organizational and legal mechanism for the protection of information rights and human freedoms in martial law are highlighted. The prospects for the organizational and legal mechanism for the protection of information rights and human freedoms are determined to be in the improvement of national legal systems, intensification of international cooperation, expansion of human rights institutions, increasing the level of legal awareness of citizens and strengthening law enforcement practice.
