Introduction. Interaction between different government sectors and society on the issues of public health and health promotion is not often sustainable. It has mostly a piecemeal and declarative approach. The aspects of this interaction are both not scientifically founded and adequately fixed in the legislation The aim of the study is to establish scientific rationale and to develop proposals for changes to the law that governs cross-sectoral collaboration on the issues of public health. Material and methods. A review and analysis of scientific literature and current federal and regional laws that govern healthcare industry tools and strategies were conducted. The study was undertaken in the Saratov region, which is a constituent entity of the Russian Federation, to study the following aspects of health care industry in the region: socioeconomic impact of the region on medical and social programs; health promotion activities of legislative and executive branches of the government, cross-sectoral Coordinating Councils, the department of Rospotrebnadzor (Federal Service for Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare), and the Center for Medical Preventive Measures. Health status and life style, preventive medical measures at 92 organizations, the results of anonymous questionnaire survey of more than 10,000 respondents (general public, healthcare industry officials, experts) were also analyzed. The obtained results have provided the underlying rationale for proposing changes to the legislation managing public health. Results. Technique for optimization of cross-sectoral collaboration for assessment of health promotion activities has been developed and tested. This technique is based on the impact of 23 identified sectors on both the determinants of health (37 of them were established) and the simple and complex informative vectors of computer-controlled system of assessment of health promotion activities and other results of the study. The technique was instrumental in proposing changes to the law, which governs the issues of public health. The changes proposed concern the determination of health promotion, its guidelines, organizational principles, assessment, and quality control. Conclusion. The study results provide the authors with the possibility to scientifically substantiate the necessity in making changes to the current legislation managing public health and developing improvement proposals.
Introduction. The article is devoted to the study of the potential application of machine-readable law technologies in the field of judicial protection of human rights. In the course of the research, the authors analyzed the Concept of development of machine-readable law technologies, approved by the Governmental Commission on Digital Development and the Use of Information Technologies for Improving the Quality of Life and the Business Environment. It was established that the achievement of one of the key directions of application of machine-readable law, according to the Concept, i.e. modernization of judicial proceedings in Russia, will objectively entail the improvement of the procedure of judicial protection of human rights. Theoretical analysis. The current state of legal proceedings in the Russian Federation is characterized by a set of problems that negatively affect the efficiency of the judicial protection of human and civil rights and freedoms in Russia. The concept of development of machinereadable law technologies offers a number of directions for the improvement of law enforcement in the framework of judicial proceedings in the Russian Federation with the use of machine-readable law technologies, which, hypothetically, will lead to the improvement of the mechanism of judicial protection of human rights. In turn, scientific community also puts forward additional directions of application of machine-readable law in the field of legal proceedings. Empirical analysis. The “advantages” of application of machine-readable law in court proceedings, highlighted by the Concept of development of machine-readable law technologies, can be recognized as effective in the tactical perspective. In addition, the development and application of the concept of machine-readable law in the field of judicial protection of human rights can be associated with the development and use of artificial intelligence technologies. Results. According to the results of the study of the Concept of development of machine-readable law technologies, as well as the ideas of legal scholars, the authors reached conclusions about the usefulness of the chosen approach to the definition of the concept of machine-readable law in the document. Notwithstanding some theoretical flaws in formulation of the machine-readable law and its ontology in the studied Conception, certain directions of development and implementation of the machinereadable law in the sphere of legal proceedings have tactical character, seem to be useful and effective for improvement of judicial protection of human rights. At the same time, this approach to the definition of machine-readable law and guidelines for its development can be used in the future to improve the concept in order to solve strategic problems of judicial enforcement.
The article examines the meaning of digital rights in the constitutional and legal aspects. The author criticizes the concept of digital rights as new objects of civil rights in domestic civil legislation since it contradicts the established world practice in understanding such a term as “digital rights”, as well erroneously ascribes certain powers of other subjective rights as independent ones, which can be realized through digital technologies. The article considers the incorrect assignment to digital rights of some constitutional rights, enshrined in the Russian constitution (rights to information, the right to privacy, freedom of the media). According to the author, digital rights in the constitutional and legal framework should be considered only those that either appeared along with the emergence of modern digital technologies, or acquired a significantly new meaning. The article gives some examples of such rights (the right to Internet access; the right to communication; the right to protection from machine processing of information) and states the conclusion on the formation of a constitutional and legal institution of digital rights at the present time.
