Abstract

The study aims to identify the features of gender and juvenile policy in different legal systems and the formation of women's and children's rights. At present, equal rights are one of the main tasks of the modern social and legal state, as equality of rights and non-discrimination have been proclaimed by many constitutions and enshrined at the international level. The implementation of an effective gender and juvenile policy will increase the state's reputation in the international arena and ensure a high degree of trust in the government. Given the differences in the development of this aspect of countries from different legal systems, the analysis of the specifics of ensuring rights within gender and juvenile policy will further improve existing ways of regulating gender and juvenile relations by borrowing the main promising ideas and provisions underlying public policy. To conduct a research the authors used different scientific methods. Among these methods are the analysis and synthesis, the formal-legal and the comparative law method. The result of this work is to identify specific features characteristic of gender and juvenile policy of different legal systems, determine the importance of human rights and non-discrimination, offer effective ways to improve the implementation of gender and juvenile policy on the example of progressive states.

Highlights

The presence of peculiarities of historical, social, and legal development of states has led to the formation of different legal systems that characterize the relationship of legal reality with the ideological, normative, institutional, and socio-economic vectors of politics of each state.As Samilo successfully emphasizes, the legal system determines the entire system of legal phenomena in the state, the set of legal means by which regulatory influence on public relations is exercised
Gender and juvenile policy of all legal systems is based on the universally recognized legal principle of equality of human rights, which borders on the principle of non-discrimination
A similar view is held by Pankevych (2014), who argues that the requirement of non-discrimination is one of the components of the common law principle of equality

Summary

Introduction

The presence of peculiarities of historical, social, and legal development of states has led to the formation of different legal systems that characterize the relationship of legal reality with the ideological, normative, institutional, and socio-economic vectors of politics of each state.As Samilo successfully emphasizes, the legal system determines the entire system of legal phenomena in the state, the set of legal means by which regulatory influence on public relations is exercised. The presence of peculiarities of historical, social, and legal development of states has led to the formation of different legal systems that characterize the relationship of legal reality with the ideological, normative, institutional, and socio-economic vectors of politics of each state. The legal system is usually understood as the legal organization of the whole society, in which law is the core (Samilo, 2015). Given that the subjective and objective factors that underlie the formation of the legal system in different countries have common features, the scientific legal literature adopted the position of classification of legal systems into types based on relevant criteria. Each of the above types of legal systems has its guidelines, but modernity makes significant adjustments to the basic ideas and organization of legal systems.
