State policy of Ukraine in the humanitarian sphere in the conditions of war

Abstract

Purpose of the article: the purpose of the article is to analyze the administrative and legal, organizational and administrative, ideological and value-related aspects of the implementation of effective state policy in the humanitarian sphere in the conditions of war and post-war reconstruction. Its success was evaluated on the basis of two approaches elaborated by the international practice: the first, based on emergency assistance within a transnational context; the second - sustainable humanism - involves activating the inner potential of the state. The authors investigate the way how these approaches are manifested in the humanitarian policy of Ukraine during the war with the Russian Federation, as well as from the accounts of military conflicts and post-war reconstruction in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH), Kosovo, Israel, and South Korea. Methodology: in the course of the study the method of comparative and system-structural analysis, as well as dialectical and modeling methods, were employed. Conclusions: having conducted the presented research, the authors proved that that state policy in the humanitarian sphere that is adequate to the conditions of wartime must ensure an equilibrium between the external source of support and the internal vector of self-renewal under which the use of the national potential of the state would be maximized. Originality or value: the humanitarian policy of Ukraine and other states in the condition of war and post-war reconstruction is being presented in a comparative perspective; the authors ascertained that the variability, flexibility of this policy, its proper regulatory and legal support is a pivotal condition for attaining victory in a military conflict and further restoration of the state.
