Expropriation in international law and problems of its implementation in Ukraine

Abstract

Questions of ownership and protection of property have long been considered fundamental aspects of socio-economic relations that determine the nature and development of society. However, in the context of globalization and growing international interaction, the property problem takes on a new dimension. The concept of expropriation as a means of limiting one’s own rights and related legal problems deserves special attention. In the context of international law, expropriation becomes one of the key topics that require careful analysis and systematization.Expropriation, as an essential element of the development of society, requires careful research from a multifaceted perspective, taking into account its legal, economic, political, and socio-cultural significance. This issue becomes especially relevant in the context of Ukraine, which, being at the crossroads of international interests and geopolitical challenges, faces the need to ensure the protection of property and property rights at various levels.In modern conditions of deep integration and interaction of international subjects, the issue of expropriation gains importance not only at the level of national legislation but also at the international level, where new challenges and contradictions arise. The process of globalization and international trade creates complex situations where foreign investors, international companies, and states can face various forms of expropriation, including direct, indirect, and justified expropriation.Ukraine, as an active member of the world community and a subject of international law, also faces these challenges and must adapt its legislation to the requirements of international standards, ensuring the protection of the rights and interests of its citizens and foreign investors. Issues of ensuring fair compensation, transparency of expropriation procedures, as well as avoiding shortcomings and abuses by the state are becoming especially relevant.
