MECHANISM OF STATE RESPONSE TO SOCIO-POLITICAL THREATS (GLOBAL AND DOMESTIC EXPERIENCE)

Abstract

The article is devoted to the substantiation of the mechanism of state response to threats of a socio-political nature. Since we consider social and political security as a system, it is logical to assume that external and internal factors affect the work and functioning of the system. By external factors, we understand such processes that do not directly depend on the actions of the subjects of world politics themselves, such as globalization, socio-political terrorism, scientific and technological progress, environmental problems; internal factors include those that directly depend on the actions of one or another country, a coalition of countries, or an organization: the threat of using nuclear weapons, violent regime change, regional conflicts, internal conflicts. We singled out the process of globalization as a factor affecting socio-political security, since globalization entails an increase in the degree of interdependence of subjects and functional areas in the sphere of socio-political security. The following factors influencing the provision of social and political security in Ukraine are proposed: orientation towards protection in business structures; availability of a reliable system of cooperation with international organizations in the field of security; implementation of international experience in the mechanisms of social and political security; the level of investment in mechanisms for ensuring social and political security; established system of propaganda of the need to ensure social and political security among the population; an innovative component of the social and political security system; perfection of the legal and regulatory basis for ensuring social and political security. The outlined factors play a more important role in the context of ensuring social and political security of Ukraine. The scientific novelty of this article lies in the substantiation of the mechanism of the state response to threats of a socio-political nature. At the same time, as a direction of further research, it is advisable to indicate the need to develop a comprehensive mechanism for adapting the state administration system to the emergence of social and political threats.
