Abstract
The interrelation between legal, social and psychological factors of ensuring human rights and normative and legal regulation of the implementation of the preventive function by the preventive activity units of the National Police of Ukraine is revealed in the paper. The author emphasizes the need to take into account the psychological component in the issues of rule-making and direct practical activities of district police officers, community police officers, and juvenile prevention units in matters of interaction with the subjects of crime prevention. It is argued that the effectiveness of preventive work depends on the targeted impact of the officials responsible for this area, as well as on the establishment of their interaction. The tasks of crime prevention are defined as follows: prevention of new and recurrent offenses; protection of people from the harmful effects of factors contributing to the commission of potential offenses; creation of a specific legal atmosphere of legality in society. Proposals are made to improve the administrative and legal regulation of interaction between these units and territorial communities. The author defines the role of civil society in this process and the peculiarities of its interaction with the police. The concept of crime prevention by the National Police is defined as a purposeful activity of police units which is comprehensive in nature and is aimed at preventing and eliminating all the existing factors which may potentially negatively affect the crime situation, public safety and order in the respective territories. The social and psychological factors of ineffective reforms related to police decentralization are analyzed. The author argues that it is expedient to enshrine at the regulatory level the powers of territorial communities to plan preventive measures. It is emphasized that crime prevention should be multidirectional, systemic, comprehensive and cross-cutting in nature with the interaction of all stakeholders and the coordinating role of the preventive activity units of the National Police of Ukraine.
