INSTITUTIONAL MECHANISMS OF INTERACTION BETWEEN NATIONAL SECURITY AND PRIORITY INTERESTS OF CIVIL SOCIETY

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the role of state national policy within the system of ensuring Ukraine's national security. The paper examines the primary directions of state national policy, its goals, and objectives, and identifies the connection between the effectiveness of national policy and the level of national security. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of problems and challenges Ukraine faces in the sphere of national security, as well as the role of state national policy in overcoming them. It is argued that in the modern world, state national policy plays a key role in ensuring the stability and security of the country. The development and implementation of an effective national policy is not only a task of public administration but also a crucial factor in ensuring national security. It is shown that there is support from the population regarding the interaction between the state and civil society; this interconnectedness allows society to develop a system of non-governmental public institutions, determining the level of interaction between national security and state interests. The article characterizes the system of views on ensuring the security of the individual, society, and the state in Ukraine against external and internal threats in all spheres of life. It is demonstrated that the fulfillment of national interests, in the context of their interconnection with national security, is determined not only by the protection of the economy but also by other vital spheres of modern society.
