THE ESSENCE OF LEGAL SUPPORT OF ENTREPRENEURIAL ACTIVITY IN UKRAINE AS AN OBJECT OF ADMINISTRATIVE AND LEGAL REGULATION

Abstract

In the article has been examined the essence of legal support for
entrepreneurial activity as an object of administrative-legal regulation. Emphasis
has been placed on the importance of entrepreneurship as a component of the
state's economic development, which contributes to the creation of gross
domestic product, increases employment rates, attracts investments, and
stimulates innovation processes. It has been underlined that in modern
conditions, particularly under the influence of global economic changes, domestic
political instability, and martial law, legal support becomes crucial for protecting
the rights and interests of businesses and ensuring their sustainable operation. It
has been emphasized that administrative-legal regulation of entrepreneurial
activity is a multifaceted process encompassing norms aimed at creating a
favorable environment for business. Within the realm of scientific discourse,
various approaches to understanding this phenomenon have been considered: as
a holistic mechanism ensuring the organization and structuring of legal relations
or as a set of actions performed by authorized state bodies to regulate social
processes. Arguments have been presented regarding the importance of applying
a systematic approach to administrative-legal regulation, given its wide range of
functions, including control, regulation, and maintaining stability. Based on the
analysis of works by Ukrainian scholars, features of administrative-legal
regulation have been highlighted, including the implementation of state goals,
systematicity, and the presence of specially authorized entities exerting
regulatory influence. It has been argued that legal support for entrepreneurial
activity should be viewed as an object of administrative-legal regulation, which is
proposed to mean a set of social relations defined in legal provisions and
developing in the process of providing legal services by specialists in the legal
domain, aimed at ensuring legal support for business entities in relevant
directions.
