    Формування нової лівої ідентичності в Іспанії (2011–2016 рр.)
    (Lviv Polytechnic Publishing House, 2016) Матлай, Любава; Національний університет “Львівська політехніка”
    Встановлено, що затяжна економічна криза і спричинений нею режим жорсткої економії та соціальних скорочень, запроваджених урядовими кабінетами Іспанії, створили сприятливі умови для виникнення протестного руху та нових політичних партій. У березні 2014 року офіційно зареєстровано ліву радикальну партію соціалістичного спрямування “Подемос”, представники якої цього ж року були обрані у Європейський парламент. Охарактеризовано основні політико-економічні та соціальні процеси, що призвели до виникнення та успіху нової партії серед виборців парламентської монархії. This paper dwells on political and economic consequences of rigid economy policy in Spain. It is found that social and political conditions experienced by Spain since 2008 onwards created favorable conditions for emergence of new political parties. The “Podemos” party (We can) emerged from the 15-M protest movemenе (the Indignados movement). On 11 March 2014, the “Podemos” party was officially registered as a political party and the following May it made an electoral breakthrough obtaining 5 deputy’s mandates in the European Parliament. In December 2015 during the general election on Spain, “Podemos” won about 20 % of votes. This general election marked the end of a two-party system which had existed in Spain since restoration and consolidation of democracy. The new party presents itself as a party of popular classes, placing itself in opposition to the two-party system of the PP (People’s Party) and the PSOE (Socialist Party). For thirty years, these parties had been dominating on the Spanish electoral scene and accounted for 80 % of votes. The “Podemos” party entered the national arena for the first time. The emergence of it in political arena of the state has forced big parties to respond to the grave problems presented not only by the economy but also by the political, social and institutional systems. The party proposes changes to Constitution of Spain of 1978 and guarantees proper functioning of the legal system; implementing a fair electoral system; recognising plurinational character of the state. In this paper, the author shows the positions of the “Podemos” party regarding key political-economic and social issues. The program of the party has a strong redistributive content, and advocates drastic increase in the economic role of the state. In this article, the author tries to trace the main political and social processes that has led to emergence and success of the “Podemos”. The paper describes foundation of the party and examines characteristics of its voters, and shows that the latter have predominantly leftist origins and orientations.

    Правовий статус виборчих комісій в Україні
    (Lviv Polytechnic Publishing House, 2016) Бучин, Микола; Національний університет “Львівська політехніка”
    Розглянуто проблему правового статусу виборчих комісій в Україні. На основі аналізу українського виборчого законодавства показано такі аспекти правового статусу виборчих комісій, як термін їхньої діяльності, обсяг повноважень, правовий статус членів виборчих комісій тощо. The article analyses a problem of the legal status of election commissions in Ukraine as a condition of their independence. It dwells on such elements of the legal status of election commissions, as the right to issue regulations binding for both citizens and authorities; permanent nature of commissions at the national level; lack of opportunity for the authorities which form a commission to recall proposed representatives to electoral bodies and others. The electoral legislation of Ukraine which consolidates the legal status of election commissions is analyzed. Positive character of legal norms which enshrined permanent nature of the Central Election Commission of Ukraine in 1997 is emphasized. Gradual improvement and specification of the national electoral law regarding the scope of election commissions’ powers and legal status of decisions they take is shown. It is proved that the legal status and characteristics of commission members greatly influence the character of commission’s activity, its independence and effectiveness of functioning. Evolution of Ukrainian legal regulation of election commissions members’ status is shown. The problematic aspects of the legal regulation of election commissions’ status in Ukraine is outlined and the ways of improving the legislation in this area are suggested. The latest include: feasibility of establishing educational and age limitation for commission members, especially for their managerial staff; need in vocational training for all commission members and inclusion of competent people whose professional activity is tangent to elections; establishing of appropriate remuneration of election commissions members; need in ensuring safety of election commissions members in the context of the Russia-Ukraine war; need for reduction of tension and conflict among electoral commissions members, etc.
