Democracy under Conditions of War: Challenges and Prospects

Abstract

The research exposed problems related to socio-economic, political and social factors that directly or indirectly affect the security of the population on the European continent and the world. The analysis of cause-and-effect relations of the large-scale military invasion of the Russian Federation allows developing algorithms for implementing democratic processes for Ukraine and for the countries of the European Union EU, and the whole civilized world. The main scientific-research works devoted to the formation of democratic societies were also analyzed, defining the specificities and main features and strategic vectors of development. The population's perception of democracy, human rights and civil liberties in various European nations was evaluated by using a sociological survey. As a result of the research conducted, a model for the formation of democratic values as a basis for the establishment of a democratic society was developed. It is concluded that, it is desirable to develop further recommendations on practical measures to protect freedom and democracy as the basis of value orientations in the fight against military aggression and, the formation of the foundations of the future security architecture in the world.
