Th e essence and purposefulness of the slogans, threats and attacks used by Donald Trump. Checking useness of the slogans „America First” and „make America great again” in the 2016 election campaign and while in offi ce; their implications for the most serious structural competitor in the international arena, which is already the People’s Republic of China on many levels. In the autho-r’s opinion, the turn of successive US presidential offi ces towards the PRC and the Asia-Pacifi c region in recent years is dictated not only by economic factors, but also by a wide range of collision paths and serves to maintain the position of the US hegemon in the region in the face of the growing power of the PRC. When Trump took offi ce in 2017, he used the Chinese threat as the cornerstone of foreign policy. To illustrate the nature of the involvement of the Trump against PRC the focus was on the dimensions of the analyzed issue: mainly diplomatic and mutual economic relations , especially blast of trade war and less military aspects. Article shows what measures were applied under the so-called the trade war between the US and the PRC and the evolution of the measures used. Th e continuity of US-China relations by successive presidents was also noted, and it was considered whether the relations are clearly doomed to confrontation. Th e purpose of this paper is to analyze the manifestations of the changes taking place in US foreign policy during the Trump presidency. Th e hypothesis of the work is that the American turn towards the PRC is inevitable, and it is dictated to a large extent not only by purely economic factors, but this turn serves to maintain the strong position of the US in the region in the face of the growing imperialist tendencies of Chinese power.

Public security is one of the priorities of state policy in the fi eld of national security. Successful public safety is the implementation of a set of measures in the fi eld of landscaping: installation of traffi c lights in appropriate public places, construction of underpasses, construction of indoor stops for citizens waiting for the arrival of public transport, etc. A well-thought-out system of planning and construction of settlements or public places, maintaining them in good condition, which promotes work and recreation of citizens, reduces the degree of threat to public safety from the occurrence of unexpected and dangerous situations. And neglect of public amenities can lead to favorable conditions for those who commit off enses and encroach on public safety. A special place is occupied by local governments, they are the closest power to the population, have the necessary powers and resources to attract citizens to maintain public order, increase their social activity in creating decent living conditions in a given area. Th e state defi nes local self-government as an independent level of government to which the people are entitled. First of all, it presupposes the organizational separation and independence of local self-government from state power, its independence in resolving issues of local importance, but independence within its own powers, as provided by the constitution. Th e main powers of local governments to ensure public safety and public order include: monitoring compliance with the law in the territory; application of measures of state coercion (usually, it is a question of bringing to administrative responsibility for the off enses connected with local government); protection of public order, carried out mainly by the police; ensuring the safety of citizens. Accordingly, local governments may be endowed with additional powers in the fi eld of public order and protection of citizens’ rights. Protecting the rights of citizens is an important component of ensuring security both at the individual level and at the level of the entire state. Th e sense of security that is transmitted inside and outside the country can be considered part of the attractiveness of the image of the country abroad.","PeriodicalId":300317,"journal":{"name":"Reality of Politics","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125419757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, the subject of legal heritage can be considered as a legal actor – the source of all legal activity, from which come legal acts, legal actions, deeds and in general legal development and other. Preservation and usage of legal heritage depends on the subjects of legal heritage, which ensures the existence of national law through the translation of legal meanings embedded in the legal institutions, in the accumulated legal experience. Th e process of translation of legal heritage is provided by the subjects of legal heritage through the development, accumulation and transfering of legal information. Th e joint interaction of two types of subjects of legal heritage on the preservation, transmission and adaptation of the legal past in accordance with the requirements of the present, is aimed at ensuring the dynamic connection of generations. Th is is due to the fact that the whole sense of law is formed primari-ly in the people, crystallized in the image of law and fi nds its expression in the legal customs, legal institutions and other legal artifacts to which the lawyers give an offi cial, legal nature. Th ese separate groups of society, united by diff erent socially signifi cant characteristics, have distinct, specifi c characteristics of their legal cultural development.

An important factor in the growth of populism is the lack of eff ectiveness of constitutionalism and other formal limited institutions, procedures to ensure the principles of people’s sovereignty, democracy, justice, gu-arantee the interests of the majority in the modern world. e Th e possibilities of constitutionalism are treated with scepticism in the populist ideology, as formal, limited institutions and procedures prevent the majority from executing their will. Liberal democracy is not strong enough and constantly needs strengthening elements in respon-se to new challenges and threats. But liberal democracy, more than any other political form, contains the potential for development, a synergistic resource, and the power of self-correction. A strong parliament and a developed civil society remain eff ective counterweight to populism.","PeriodicalId":300317,"journal":{"name":"Reality of Politics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114054183","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, the impact on the countries of this region was carried out in two vectors – externally and internally. As a result of the active promotion of Western traditions of understanding and functioning of political systems, cardinal reforms and transformations in gender policy, education, socio-economic level, etc. have taken place in the countries of the studied region. Th e relevance of the study of the proposed topic is due to the fact that the Middle East, including and the Arabian Peninsula become important in Ukraine’s international relations. Although, as the practice of post-reform events shows, oft en these changes are only declarative rather than systemic. Th is is primarily due to the slow and unstable movement towards the transformation of socio-political institutions, despite the rather strong pressure in this context from leading international organizations and the leadership of key Western political states.","PeriodicalId":300317,"journal":{"name":"Reality of Politics","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130385485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
