Abstract
The article reflects the retrospective review of Ukrainian legislation and an analysis of the prospects of the lawmaking process on countering hate speech, including in the media space. Criteria for the hate speech and other non-criminal criminal qualification, which entail legal liability or without one, are presented. The conclusions are drawn from the European practice of classifying hate crimes. It has been established that the basis of legislation to combat hate speech should be recognition of the highest social value of a person, regardless of those features that make him or her unlike any other. The problems of new draft laws aimed at counteracting hate speech in the media space have been identified.
