Restrictions on the State in the Application of the Mechanism of the State Interests Protection: Some Theoretical Issue

The article addresses the issues of the restrictions on the state power in its application of the legal mechanism of the protection of the state interests. The protection of the interests of the state is an objective necessity as well as an obligation of the state. Lack of eff ectiveness of the protection of those interests is able to considerably reduce the effi ciency of or to render impossible the achievement of the objectives of the state of the protection of the society and the basics of the constitutional system. Concurrently, the state measures which are applied by the state in the state interests are capable of being accompanied by the interference with the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of humans and citizens, of private persons and pose a risk of arbitrariness, violation of fundamental human rights and freedoms as well as incompatibility with the international undertakings of the state. The issue of the restrictions on the state power in its application of the legal machinery of the protection of the state interests is therefore of special relevance. The state, when implementing the measures aimed at realization and securing of the state interests, be it at the legislative, administrative or judicial level, is simultaneously restricted by the requirements of lawfulness, proportionality and the rule of law approaches to construction of which have been developed both in the domestic legal system of Ukraine and in the international law. The state measures, even genuinely aimed at the protection of the state interests of the public nature, employed by the state authorities without due regard to the said restrictions are capable of giving rise to the state responsibility both at the domestic and the international level. Further, the state measures which are lacking compatibility with the lawfulness, proportionality and the rule of law requirements on many occasions impair the eff ectiveness of the state machinery of the state interests protection.

Key words: interests of the state, the state, the rule of law, lawfulness, proportionality.
