I’M A SHAME TO BE A LAWYER!

The article is an attempt to give impetus to the ongoing discussion about the further development of the domestic legal system and scientific legal thought. The emphasis is on the prospects of expanding the self-organization of economic and other entities, narrowing its legal regulation. It is proposed to involve the maximum number of theoreticians and practitioners in discussing the possibility of modernizing Ukraine’s legal system, taking into account the qualitative and quantitative increase in the achievements of scientific and technological progress, the development of new social relations that have not yet been affected by legal influence. In particular, it is proposed to introduce the concept of the Charter of economic activity into circulation, which, as it is supposed, can shorten the time for introducing changes to such a normative act, to allow the maximum to reach a compromise between business entities with respect to the system of legal support for the economy of the country. The author proves that this way of modernizing the legal system is a kind of “healthy” lobbying of socially useful interests, but at the same time it is necessary to clearly fix the rules of such activity with what, as shown, the domestic legislator could not cope. It also touches upon a wide range of philosophical and legal issues in the social life of people, their various relationships as prerequisites for the emergence of subsequent legal ordering and the direction of the relevant relations in a socially useful channel. The issue of the future of the profession of a lawyer as a promising area for further research in the context of the same scientific and technological progress is touched upon.
