LEGAL CO-CREATION OF AUTHORITIES AND SOCIETY AS A MANIFESTATION OF THE CULTURE OF LAWMAKING PROCESS IN THE CONTEMPORARY STATE

The relevance of the research is due to the need to implement effective and highquality lawmaking activities in the conditions of modern social and state-legal development, which is largely related to the extent to which public authorities are able to respond to legally significant social needs, claims of people and their communities. It is justified that the expected contact between authorities and society can be achieved through cooperation and solidarity of creative efforts. The scientific significance of the article consists in addressing interdisciplinary and insufficiently studied categories: «legal cocreation » of authorities and society and «culture of lawmaking process» in the contemporary state. The authors emphasize that modern lawmaking process needs to be optimized (improved) through the processes of constructive dialogue and cocreation of authorities and society in the lawmaking sphere, which are an indicator of the culture of lawmaking carried out in the state, an expression of the level of culture of lawmaking activities. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the natural connection of legal co-creation of society and the state with the culture of lawmaking process in the modern state, considering legal co-creation as a manifestation of the culture of modern lawmaking process. The authors use: the dialectical method in establishing the connection between the above-mentioned phenomena; the sociological (socio-legal) approach, which allows to determine the social nature of legal cocreation and the culture of modern lawmaking; the culturological approach that made it possible to consider legal co-creation in the system of social, legal and lawmaking culture. General logical scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, scientific generalization, specific scientific legal and technical method, etc. are also used. Results: the article establishes the importance of the development of algorithms and mechanisms of legal co-creation of authorities and society in the modern lawmaking process and the need to improve socio-legal technologies that contribute to this, which is a direct and characteristic manifestation of the culture of modern lawmaking process that is the basis of socio-leg al changes in the country.
