НОРМАТИВНО-ПРАВОВА БАЗА ЩОДО ЗБЕРЕЖЕННЯ ДОКУМЕНТІВ ТА МАТЕРІАЛІВ РОСІЙСЬКО-УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ВІЙНИ

Abstract

Nowadays there is an urgent need to preserve historical sources to study the history of the recent Russian-Ukrainian war, a comprehensive objective study of its events, facts and phenomena. The source base for such historical research is extremely diverse and presentable. Media, television, radio and press, Internet resources, history sources and, most importantly, documentary complexes, in particular, office work materials of the military units and units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are among the major source complexes. The article deals with the analysis of thenormative and legal basis in the field of documents preservation, covering the course of the Russian-Ukrainian war. One of the unique phenomena of social and political life is the media, which is considered as a historical source and a subject of the historical process. Internet resources as a historical source are the most widely used and available to the public. A significant layer of important and unique information is the reconstruction of the events of the war in the memories of its participants, in the materials of the interview by the method of oral history. The main type of the documentary complexes that serve as a source for the study of the history of the war is the office work materials of the military units and the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which are directly involved in the ATO and the OOF. One of these types of documents is a historical form - a document, which, in particular, reflects the military activity of the military unit, important events, a state of combat training, military discipline and other information. Talking about the normative and legal basis for the preservation of documents and materials of the Russian-Ukrainian war, we note it to be sufficient. However, we should pay attention to the formation of a systematic approach in this matter. Taking measures, including law-making ones, to consciously and unconsciously avoid the loss of such historical sources that contain extremely valuable and sometimes unique factual baggage, is of great importance.
