Effective control over ensuring human rights and freedoms as a dimension of a democratic society: social context

Conclusions

Thus, finally, we note that the purpose of social policy is to ensure the material and spiritual well-being of citizens, achieving stability and security of life in society, the integrity and dynamism of its development. Therefore, it is extremely important to ensure social rights, as noted by leading legal practitioners and representatives of the scientific community, to work out the following areas, namely:

1. Prevention of poverty, changes in the quality of life in the direction of deterioration.

2. Creation of state, first of all legal, guarantees for prevention of natural disasters, epidemics, epizootics, technogenic catastrophes, for immediate liquidation of their consequences, help to the affected population.

3. Creation of education, health care, pension, other social issues accessible to a wide stratum of the population, taking into account the issue of security of citizens, population groups, etc.

In addition, we must keep in mind that conducting a “sound” social policy is impossible today without the following statements: it is important to emphasise that to ensure social human rights in practice it is necessary to doctrinally develop and implement the category of “social responsibility” of the state, business and other civil society institutions. Without proper rights corresponding to the rights, as well as the appropriate level of social responsibility of the relevant institutions, it is impossible to raise the question of proper social rights either in the theoretical sense or in practice. Ensuring the effectiveness of national and international control in the context of European integration implies the need for a set of organisational, legal and other measures aimed primarily at forming a comprehensively developed personality with a high level of spiritual culture in general, not just legal culture and legal awareness. After all, any control activity at the national and international levels is always implemented in specific actions and deeds of entities authorised to do so by law or international treaties. It should be borne in mind that many values of spiritual culture, despite their universal significance for humanity in general, always have a certain socio-cultural context, which affects the specifics of their perception and understanding within a society and state, and therefore, including efficiency control activity, which is manifested in the achievement of socially useful results of its implementation.

The proper quality and effectiveness of national and international control cannot be ensured by legal means alone, including the adoption of “best” or “perfect” laws, as well as relevant international treaties. After all, laws and international treaties, like any other source of law, are not a closed “thing in itself', but are created, exist and are implemented only in connection with the perception and knowledge of the surrounding diverse reality. In this regard, social control in general includes a holistic system of interconnected and mutually agreed mechanisms for maintaining order and harmony in society through a set of social regulators, the most important, most influential and most universal of which are law and morality. At the same time, the systematic and coordinated action of law and morality, and in some societies and the relevant religious tradition, provide the most effective influence on the relevant socially significant activities, in particular, on control in the field of public administration. This, in turn, means that in the context of modern democratic realities of building a legal, social state, in which the rule of law prevails, the moral (ethical) factor of ensuring proper quality and effectiveness of control over proper implementation and observance of social and other human rights. This necessitates special attention to the human potential of control activities, highly professional formation of which must contain an element of moral (ethical) education, through which the greatest achievement of the individual's ability to “go beyond himself' and thus, aim at their actions not only personal aspirations and desires, but also the interests of other actors.
