THE CURRENT STATE OF SCIENTIFIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROBLEMS OF POST-WAR RECONSTRUCTION OF THE STATE: THEORETICAL AND LEGAL ANALYSIS

Abstract

This article examines the current state of scientific research on the challenges of post-war state reconstruction, incorporating both theoretical and legal analyses. It has been established that the issues surrounding post-war reconstruction are the focus of many scholars across various fields. However, there is a notable gap in comprehensive studies within the theoretical and legal domains of legal science dedicated to analyzing these problems.

The research categorizes the main challenges that Ukraine will face during its recovery, as well as those currently present, into several key areas: destroyed infrastructure, humanitarian crises, economic recession, social and political issues, and geopolitical challenges. The proposed restoration of the state should be viewed as a complex of organizational, legal, financial, and other measures aimed at facilitating accelerated reconstruction and improving the living conditions of the population and business entities, thereby addressing the aftermath of the war.

The study emphasizes that restoring infrastructure is impossible without adequate funding, which can be sourced from the state budget, international aid, private investments, and other means. Almost immediately after hostilities began, developing strategies for the post-war recovery of the Ukrainian economy became urgent. The ongoing conflict has significantly impacted all aspects of Ukrainian society, including its security situation. The nature and scale of social and political challenges in the post-war period will depend on various factors, including the duration and intensity of hostilities, the extent of destruction, the number of casualties, and subsequent political and economic decisions. Furthermore, it is well established that the war has precipitated a large-scale humanitarian crisis affecting millions of people.
