Legal awareness and the national idea are the basis of a stable state and legal development of society

Abstract

It was found that the basis of the Ukrainian national idea, among other factors, is the formation of a law-abiding citizen with a legitimate vector of personal development. We see that even during the war, Ukrainians try to control compliance with the rules of law and the law. The active activity of all law enforcement structures to ensure law and order and prevent illegal behavior of citizens shows the society's desire for lawful, civilized development even in the crisis-transitional period of the nation's existence. It is emphasized that within a specific society, people are united by a certain goal, a national idea, a legal field, and moral and value orientations. A civilized society strives for constant development and improvement. An important aspect in this process is integration into the international globalized social and legal space. Scientific and technical progress allows active development of society in close interaction between its members. It is noted that today we once again prove to the whole world that we have the right, based on the centuries-old traditions of state formation and law-making, to develop our statehood. During the war, the problems of the military and political sphere come to the fore, which is absolutely justified, because the preservation of life and health of citizens, active repulse of the enemy, international support are the key to victory and the possibility of forming a democratic society. Despite this, we must not forget the importance of forming the future generation of Ukrainians as law-abiding citizens with a stable understanding of the national idea, ethnicity. Attention is focused on the fact that the formation of legal awareness and the preservation and development of the national idea is a priority task of the state and society in general to preserve its identity, independence and significance in the international legal arena. An important role in this process belongs to the youth, the cultural elite, and also, every citizen should strive to enrich and multiply both the national heritage of his people and its state-legal system through lawful behavior, legal culture and a high level of legal awareness.
