Присвячено актуальній проблематиці становлення та розвиток політичноїсистеми Європейського Союзу.

An author accents attention on the features of functioning of basic ЕU institutes as centers of acceptance of political decisions.In the political system of the EU, as well as any viable system, there is constant interaction and feedback between the input (demands and support) and output (political decisions and actions to implement them). However, compared with other democratic political systems, the feedback circuit in the political system of the EU is relatively weak. The fact that the EU citizens receive overwhelming share information on government policies and processes of the EU national media instead of pan-European media sources. Furthermore, since the national media is focused primarily on the work of national governments and the issues and problems of policy, national elites of member states are major prefilter of the flow of information about the EU.Thus, the feature of the EU has a wide range and complexity of its political processes, which are characterized by a large number of participants, a lot of actions within EU institutions and the member states, and interact among each other based on different rules and decision-making procedures. Specific combinations of participants and access channels to the EU political process in each case is due to several factors, one of which is the Community treaties that establish procedures for making decisions and determining the circumstances under which each of these procedures should be applied. ; Посвящено актуальной проблематике становления и развития политической системы Европейского Союза. Акцентируется внимание на особенностях функционирования основных институтов ЕС как центров принятия политических решений
An important feature of political modernization and development of the political system is the ability of the state to undergo structural changes in all spheres of public life, while preserving the stability of society, as well as the inclusion of the broad masses in the political process. After all, deep democratization of political and economic institutions is impossible without active participation of citizens.The article is devoted to the study of civil society, which is closely linked with the institutionalization of free and diverse citizens' integration into public associations, which provide an opportunity to optimally ensure the implementation and protection of fundamental human and civil rights and freedoms. The establishment of civil society institutions is an indispensable attribute of a truly democratic state, a clear indicator of the freedom of its citizens. After all, it is the institutional structures that play a decisive role in the linear stage of evolution.In the discourse of this problem, attention should be paid to the legal forms of activity in Ukraine that determine the legal personality of civil society institutions. The urgency of the work, thus, is the need to study the problem of interaction of civil society institutes with state authorities. In Ukraine, this interaction takes place in the following legal forms: participation in drafting and discussing draft legal acts, involving civil society institutions in the provision of social services, civil society institutions exercising public control over the activities of state authorities, conducting state monitoring and monitoring and analysis of public opinion.

The European Union has been pursuing the policy aimed at achieving equality between women and men for a long time. The adoption of the Law "On Ensuring Equal Rights and Opportunities for Women and Men" is an important step forward. However, the aspects of the control of compliance with the legislation in the field of gender policy remain poorly advanced and need to be adapted following the experience of developed European countries. The aim of this article was to outline the legislative mechanism for ensuring equal rights and opportunities for women and men, and to compare it with European legislative experience and practice. During the research, the methods of analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction and comparative analysis were used. As a result of the research, the mechanism for ensuring equal rights and opportunities in Ukraine was determined; the bodies, institutions and organizations empowered in the specified area were described along with the main aspects of gender equality legislation in Ukraine. It is concluded that government officials can use the results obtained during the research to improve some legislative aspects of control over gender policy implementation.
The article analyses the state and development of civil society in Central and Eastern Europe as basic determinants of its development, using integrative indices of civil society sustainability. The external and internal logic of these indices for 2019 is studied. The research uses methods of cluster analysis, linear correlation, and multiple regression analysis to model the interaction of the determinants of civil society development in the region. The results of the analysis in the Central and Eastern European region reveal interesting links not only between the status of civil society and the state, but also in the relationship of factors that reflect the analytical triangle of relationships. People's satisfaction with government is not a simple consequence of the economic situation: the relationship between social wealth and economic progress. The status of civil society also turns out to be a factor in this system of relationships, along with the quality of social relations and the existing sociopsychological characteristics of the population. The numerical values of the civil society situation and development indices obtained in this way can be used in statistical models.
