The purpose of the article is to analyze doctrinal ideas about the nature of human rights, which promoted the idea of the principled unity of rights reflected in international legal provisions, that are strengthening the normative and institutional guarantees of judicial protection of social rights, as well as identifying problematic aspects of the justiciability of such rights is within the focus of the paper. The methodological basis of the research is the general scientific dialectical method of learning social phenomena in their interconnection and development. The formation of guarantees of social rights enshrined in international legal acts, the development of human rights ideology, legally expressed in the principle of the principle of unity of all rights, and judicial protection problematic are studied. It has been proved that the consequence of the international consensus that all human rights are universal, indivisible, interdependent, interrelated, and complementary was the shift of emphasis from discussions about the nature of rights to the types of correlative obligations of the state, aiming at strengthening the guarantees of social rights. It is noted that conventional understanding of the fundamentals of all rights integrates the issue of social rights into the discussions of human dignity, individual autonomy and freedom, which are traditional for civil and political rights. It is concluded that recognition of the principled unity and equal importance of rights transfers the discussion about justiciability of social rights from the presence or absence of sufficient grounds for judicial protection to proper and effective means of dispute resolution. It is stated that effectiveness of the national judiciary as an element of the system of guarantees depends on the ability to provide protection against the devaluation of social rights and the emasculation of their essential content by public regulatory decisions. It is also emphasized that judicious balancing of private and public interests in accordance with correlative positive obligations supports confidence in the judiciary in particular and the state in general.
The article is examining the role of social dialogue and its subjects in promoting the concept of lifelong learning for employees. It has been proven that the development and implementation of lifelong learning systems is a shared responsibility of the social partners – government officials, employers and employees. The bilateral or tripartite social dialogue will ensure a truly integrated approach, that takes into account the interests of all parties and promotes more effective implementation of lifelong learning programs. The main documents of the International Labour Organization about the professional development of employees have been reviewed. Based on their analysis, the author identifies the main tasks and directions of influence of trade unions and employers to ensure continuous training of employees. It is emphasized that the ILO regulates the need for strengthening the social dialogue on professional development, including involvement of the social partners in the development of national strategies in the field of education and training, monitoring trends in competencies etc. Legal basis for the participation of social partners in the formation and implementation of state policy on adult education in Ukraine was determined. Proposals were made to improve national legislation and draft laws in the sphere of professional development of employees to increase the role of trade unions and employers' organizations in promoting the lifelong learning.
The article is dedicated to the study of the features of the trajectory of changes of sovereignty of the State under current crisis conditions caused by the pandemic COVID19, which shape its future prospects. The research paradigms of biopower (M. Foucault), state of emergency (K. Schmitt, J. Agamben) are used in the work, allowing not to limit the subject of study to legal positivist forms and focuses on interdisciplinary scientific research. The processes of globalization, which led to increased interdependence between countries, the opening of borders, integration and competition of markets, capital mobility, contributed to the actualization of discourses on "erosion" and even "loss" of State sovereignty. Regional European integration also puts pressure on the sovereignty of Member States. However, the transfer some of the power to supranational structures is not a renunciation of sovereignty, but an act of sovereign self-restraint. The redistribution of authority is carried out through coordinated decisions, that correspond to the basic idea of integration, and is used primarily to optimize the implementation of public functions, to achieve a certain quality status sufficient to accoplish social goals. With the onset of the pandemic crisis, the relative openness and transparency of the globalized and integrated world face a new reality, that strengthens the sovereignty of regulatory decisions of public authorities on the governance of people and territory. If public health in the long-term state of emergency remains a priority for the state, the consequences of the "new normality" may be the devaluation of the rule of law, which originally aims at protecting individual rights and freedoms, replacing established rules with temporary regulations. Extreme necessity justifies the use of disciplinary coercive measures, increased control over the population, the introduction of restrictions and other innovations. The combination of emergency security and state biopolitics legitimizes the priority of public interests over private ones and the use of exceptional sovereign solutions to overcome threats. Emergency governance shapes management technology, which has legal forms but can mimic law in the context of its idea. The growth of authoritarian tendencies in public administration, legal guarantees and protection of human rights, freedoms, fundamental democratic principles, the relationship between freedom and security determine the prospects for further research.
