Tymoshenko Vira. Implementation of human rights in the modern world: challenges and threats

The peculiarities of the realization of human rights under the conditions of various challenges and threats are covered. The mechanism for the realization of human rightsis considered as a set of legal means of implementing human rights in life, which is revealed in two interrelated aspects – static and dynamic. The realization of human rights can be hindered by various circumstances: inefficiency of legislation, inactivity of civil society, authoritarian political regime, terrorism, etc. The article is focused on terrorism. Countering terrorism is a complex task that involves a system of measures that do not always contribute to the realization of human rights, but they are necessary to ensure the safety of both a person and the entire society. Threats related to terrorism actualize theoretical studies of the possibilities of countering terrorism and creating conditions for the proper realization of human and citizen rights and freedoms. The purpose of the article is to study the specifics of the influence of terrorism on the process of realizing human rights in the modern world and to indicate ways to prevent this influence. The methodology of the article consists of dialectical and phenomenological approaches, as well as formal-logical, formal-dogmatic, formal-legal, systemic and structural-functional methods. The conclusions state that terrorismis a significant obstacle on the way to the realization of human rights. Terrorism can be characterized as the commission of ideologically motivated violent crimes with the aim of destabilizing society, influencing politics, and intimidating people. Rights and freedoms may be restricted in connection with a terrorist threat, but the restrictions must be proportionate to the threat. At the same time, the elimination of obstacles to the realization of human rights helps to overcome the motivation of certain individuals to engage in terrorist activities. The proper implementation of rights and freedoms is possible under the condition of creating effective mechanisms for overcoming social contradictions, achieving a social compromise, ending financial support for terrorism and illegal weapons trafficking, and effective counter measures against the formation of a terrorist personality.

Key words: implementation of human rights, society, threat, terror, migrants.
