The institution of separation legislative provisions of those EU member states that have chosen a separation legal regulation model, according to which the direct dependence of divorce on separation is recognized. It means that the spouse who wishes to dissolve the marriage must be in a state of separation issued by competent authority decision for some time (formal separation).

Such EU member states as Denmark, Ireland, Italy have chosen the defined model for legal regulation of separation. Based on this study, the characteristic features of this model for legal regulation of separation are highlighted, namely:

the main purpose of the separation institute in the legislation of these states is to provide spouses with time to decide on the future for their marriage: either divorce or reconciliation;

a separate residence regime may be established by a decision of the competent authority (court, prosecutor, public administration) by mutual agreement or at the request of one of the spouses, despite the objections of the other;

the existence of a clear list of grounds in the legislation to establish separation on the application of one of the spouses;

the existence of any consequences of the individual residence regime is linked to the determination of the fault of one or both spouses in the establishment of a separate residence regime on one or another basis;

separation would result in the termination of the marital property regime, the termination of the marriage contract, except for the provisions re- lating to the separate residence regime, and the termination of the paternity presumption.

Although this model for legal regulation of separation is still relevant, the trend toward the simplification of legal regulation of divorce proceed- ings, has led to the complete rejection of separation as one of the prerequisites for divorce (in the event of mutual consent of the spouses to the termination of marriage) or reduction of spouse's stay in separation.

Nowadays the multinational corporations due to direct foreign investments constantly enhance their impact on both international economic relations and the competitiveness of the national economy. Inflows of investment capital serve as the basis for development of the infrastructure of the territory and production while attracting foreign technologies increases competitiveness of domestic products in foreign markets. The purpose of writing this article is to determine the investment strategies of TNC when entering the Ukrainian market, as well as general trends of attracting foreign direct investments that influence the investment attractiveness of Ukraine. Research methods are analysis and synthesis, comparison. Based on the comparison of the data on the dynamics of volume of foreign investment in the economy of Ukraine and other countries of the world we analyzed the peculiarities of attracting foreign direct investment in Ukraine. The sectoral structure of foreign direct investment was explored and the trends specific to the major types of economic activity were determined. According to the data of analyzed scientific materials it was determined that the overwhelming part of the capital of foreign TNC is concentrated in the food and tobacco industry, trade, finance, real estate operations, i.e. in the areas with high turnover of capital and secured markets. In addition, a negative trend of decrease in the inflow of foreign capital in the real sector of economy was discovered. The paper considers the criteria, according to which Ukraine is attractive for the activities of TNC, and the factors that reduce the competitive advantage were also taken into account. Scientific novelty of the work is in determining the characteristics of the current development of investment processes in Ukraine, as well as the substantiation of the necessity of studying the aspects of TNC investment activities to attract foreign investments into the economy of the country on mutually beneficial conditions. The practical significance of the work is in that providing appropriate measures to improve the investment climate will allow by rational approach obtaining a number of competitive advantages, related to functioning of foreign corporations on its territory. Further research will tackle government programs to create appropriate legislation with regulation of incentives to attract foreign TNC and the system of the shock absorbers against possible negative consequences of transnationalization.

The course of European integration chosen by the state and the further accession of Ukraine to the European Union requires, in turn, the reform of national legislation and the system of authorities, as well as a review of the state's role in the life of public relations, including agrarian ones. In this regard, there is a need to carry out agrarian reform of Ukraine, the main purpose and task of which is to ensure the activity of the national commodity producer, to bring the agrarian sector of Ukraine to the international level, as well as to strengthen the position of Ukrainian products in the world market. However, without the proper involvement of the state, achieving these goals is virtually impossible. That is why the role of the state in ensuring the development of the agro-industrial sector is crucial. At the same time, the state should not interfere in agribusiness, and it is obliged to create only favorable environment for business entities. In this case, it is important to ensure the proper public administration of agrarian legal relations, which in turn creates the need to study the nature of public administration, the purpose and mechanisms of implementation, as well as legislative regulation. At the same time, considerable attention needs to be paid to the study of state support for agriculture, which in recent years has been the main type of state participation in the field of agriculture. Public administration and direct government support for agriculture create the right conditions for agribusiness development, including the opportunity for small and medium-sized businesses to develop. The article explores the concepts of public administration and state support for agriculture, defines their purpose and content. The comparative legal characterization of public administration and state support has been carried out separately, and it has been established that these are different legal categories, but interrelated and interdependent. It is determined that the national legislation of Ukraine does not have definitions of the studied concepts, and therefore one of the directions of reforming the national legislation should be its updating by fixing the concept of public administration, methods, principles of its implementation, etc. The purpose of the study is to compare state support and public administration in agrarian law of Ukraine, to determine common and different characteristics, to establish methods of implementation of state support and public administration, to study the experience of foreign countries on state support and public administration of agricultural producers. The object of the study is the legal relations that arise between the state and other subjects of agrarian legal relations regarding the implementation of public administration and state support of the agrarian sector. The methodological basis of scientific research is represented by the following methods: the method of legal analysis, comparative method, the structural method, the formal legal method. Keywords: public administration, state support, state aid, public administration, agrarian relations, public authorities.

The insufficient degree of common identity at the state level, the distinct regional character of axiological and ideological differences in the Ukrainian society, direct interference with the internal affairs and imposition of common identifications on the part of other subjects of international relations considerably aggravates the threat of separatism, leads to the increase of joint identification of citizens with other societies and their political interests, which can lead to the territorial disintegration of the country. The annexation of Crimea by Russia became a significant destabilizing factor in the region, which sharpened ethnopolitical controversies on the peninsula. The most ethnically dissatisfied are Crimean Tatars and ethnic Ukrainians, who experience constant discrimination due to their ethnic origin, language, and religion from the state authorities of Crimea and Russian Federation. According to the population census, conducted by the Federal Service of State Statistics, subordinate to the Russian power, the peninsula has observed a considerable decrease of the Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar population: 15.8% of Ukrainians and 10.6% of Crimean Tatars. Russians constitute the majority: 68.3% comparing to 58.3% in 2001. Different sociological studies in Crimea claim annexation to cause the intensification of regional tendencies. Thus, according to the 2016 poll, 35% of the citizens identified themselves, first of all, as Crimeans and not as the citizens of Russia, which considerably exceeds average Russian figures. This dynamics does not obviously fit the ideas of the "Russian World"; thus, the peninsula observes the implementation of the "soft deportation" policy of Crimeans, substituted by Russians. The official data state that during four years 178 thousand people have migrated to Crimea, the prevailing majority of them being Russians. Although Ukraine does not have opportunities for implementing the legislation developed in the time period of 2014–2018 for the regulation of Crimean ethnopolitical disputes on the occupied peninsula, the development and implementation of the de-occupation and reintegration strategy of Crimea is crucial for the protection of Crimean ethnic communities' rights and restoration of the territorial integrity of Ukraine.

The article deals with theoretical and methodological approaches to the essence of the state sovereignty in modern conditions of legal globalization and European interstate integration from the point of view of searching for effective means of complex legal modernization of society. The author analyzes the legal content of this category, shows its specific features, reveals the importance of the processes of improving the basic elements of social relations and constitutional modernization of society and the state in modern conditions of legal globalization and European interstate integration. The need for further improvement of constitutional and legal regulation of the most important social relations as a key direction of legal modernization of social relations in a modern democratic state based on the fundamental foundations of European constitutionalism is underlined. At the same time, at the doctrinal level, there is no doubt that the Constitution of Ukraine has a certain degree of almost all the well-known features of the world, in particular, the European, constitutions. Summarizing the above, we consider it necessary to highlight the following main formal and legal features of the Constitution of Ukraine, which is the fundamental ground for modern constitutional and legal reform in our state: 1) a special subject accepting (people's character); 2) the fundamental (institutional) nature; 3) stability is coupled with dynamism; 4) reality; 5) formal and legal properties: the Constitution – the Fundamental Law of Ukraine; its highest legal force; Constitution – the legal base of legislation; A special procedure for making and amending; Special content and structure of the Constitution; Direct effect of its norms. This list is not exhaustive, but in our opinion, it is optimal for defining the main tasks and principles of constitutional and legal reform in the current conditions of legal globalization and European interstate integration. Thus, with the improvement of the Constitution of Ukraine as the main source of constitutional law of Ukraine, it is necessary to focus not only on the modernization of certain institutions that regulate it, but also on the strengthening of its legal properties in general. In other words, the leading role of the Constitution in the system of sources of constitutional law of Ukraine is due to its inherent legal properties, ensuring their effectiveness in society and is a priority task of modern constitutional and legal reform. Thus, under the constitutional and legal reform, in today's conditions of legal globalization and European interstate integration, it is necessary to reform of the sphere of constitutional law directly as a leading national branch of law of Ukraine, the formally-legal improvement and improvement of the constitutional legal material at all its system levels, as provisions, institutions, sub-sectors and industry as a whole. It should also be noted that the subject and object of the branch of constitutional law varies in modern conditions under the influence of a whole range of objective factors of legal and political reality, in particular, it refers to the processes of legal globalization and intergovernmental integration, which, in turn, internally causes the emergence of new branches and subnets of national law, strengthening the internationalization of constitutional law and the constitutionality of international and European law, the adaptation of domestic constitutional laws and to basic European legal standards as a prerequisite quality of the constitutional and legal reform in accordance with objectively existing conditions of society. The need for further improvement of the constitutional and legal regulation of the most important social relations as the most important line of public power in the context of the perception of the European legal system by the national legal system of Ukraine
