Theoretical and methodological grounds of the research of constitutional and legal responsibility

The article highlights the theoretical and methodological problems of the research of constitutional and legal responsibility. It is noted that the absence of a modern doctrine of constitutional and legal responsibility negatively affects the quality of legal and, first of all, constitutional and legal regulation of the processes of building and functioning of an effective and responsible model of public power and the practical implementation of the principles of the rule of law, the supremacy of the Constitution, the separation of state powers, the recognition of local self-government, etc.
There is a noticeable doctrinal uncertainty, a mosaic of approaches, fragmentation and instability of many scientific constructions and doubts not only regarding the definition of the very concept of constitutional and legal responsibility and all related constitutional relations and procedures, but also regarding the understanding of the role and significance of the phenomenon under study from the position of axiological, ontological, functional and teleological aspects in the general context of the development of constitutional law and constitutionalism in the modern world.
It is concluded that today there is an urgent need for a comprehensive study of conceptual and constitutional issues of the theory and practice of constitutional and legal responsibility in Ukraine, the results of which should be focused on substantiating the doctrine of constitutional and legal responsibility as the basis for the development of modern constitutionalism, the components of its system, in particular the institutional and conceptual principles of parliamentarism, the institution of the presidency, municipalism, civil society and such of its institutions as political parties and public organization, as well as in all its functional qualities and dynamic manifestations, in particular, in the system of current constitutional legislation of Ukraine, mechanisms of constitutional law-making, law-enforcement and human rights protection activities, etc.

Key words: constitutional and legal responsibility, doctrine of constitutional and legal responsibility, theory of constitutional and legal responsibility, constitutionalism, constitutional law, legal responsibility, rule of law, constitutional and legal regulation
