Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine the place and role of the
humanitarian and social function of law enforcement agencies in Ukraine in the
context of armed aggression. The research employed comparative law, a doctrinal
approach, and legal modelling. The study’s main results were the argumentation
of the position that the humanitarian and social function of law enforcement
agencies at the current stage includes the following elements. They are promoting
the formation of civil society in Ukraine based on social justice; creation of
conditions for its further development through the mobilisation of efforts and
effective collective interaction. The research findings substantiate the proposition
that the peculiarity of the activity of law enforcement agencies is that they are
elements of the state mechanism and implement their main functions law
enforcement, and are also the guarantor of ensuring human rights and freedoms in
the performance of a humanitarian and social function. The research focuses on an
issue that is of urgent importance, both for the practical activity of law
enforcement agencies and for further studies.
