Abstract

The article states that Ukraine’s demographic situation is a crisis, because the Ukrainian government is not actually applied effective means of influencing the demographic situation. Analysis of constitutional and legal principles of regulation of demographic processes shows that the Basic Law does not reveal the nature of population policy and family relations in the context of human reproduction. The law specifies only the marriage, the protection of childhood, motherhood, fatherhood and social protection of families. Legal regulation of individual demographic processes supported by laws and regulations in social, family, employment and other areas. However, despite their abundance, demographic regulation of relations and care of family relations and development needs legislative improvement. Existing rules are characterized by fragmentation. That’s why they do not work in practice and are declarative and far from real life character. 

With a number of outstanding issues, should the demographic situation in the country to solve through the implementation of various complex legal measures governing family relations. These legal actions are divided into measures of state and public regulation of demographic processes. Legal measures of state regulation of demographic processes provide for preventive control measures, stimulating, satisfying and legislative measures to harmonize legislation to overcome legal problems. Measures of public regulation of demographic processes involving legislative measures to protect human rights and control power. The peculiarity of the proposed measures to improve the demographic situation in Ukraine is to use a synergistic approach in regulating family relations. This approach is based on the principles of social partnership of the family, the state and the public. The use of synergies in such a system can achieve the effect of generalization which is that the interaction of two or more factors, their action far exceeds the effect of each component as a simple sum.
