https://doi.org/10.18384/2310-6794-2023-1-132-142
Abstract
Aim. Substantiation of the primacy of mutual responsibility of the individual, society, state, and the concept of public authorities’ positive responsibility as fundamental political and legal regulators of
social processes.
Methodology. The key research method is to use an interdisciplinary analysis and a synthetic approach to the study of the problem of responsibility in the sphere of state organization, public authority and public management.
Results. An interdisciplinary analysis of the nature of “responsibility” as a complex philosophical-sociological and political-legal concept has been carried out. The theoretical substantiation of the concept of positive responsibility of public authorities is given. It has been established that in modern conditions the imperative of interaction and mutual responsibility of a citizen, society and the state is the basis for strengthening the foundations of society and the state.
Research implications. The potential of the concept of positive responsibility in the law-making process and law enforcement practice in the field of organizing public administration at various levels of public authority is disclosed for widespread use due to its close relationship to positive social activity.
