LEGAL PRINCIPLE OF GENDER EQUALITY OF JUDGES: MODERN VIEW

Journal Title: Юридичний бюлетень - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 1

Abstract

Today, the majority of ordinary people in our country perceive gender equality as something like “European fashion”, which is alien to us or something to which our modern society is not quite ready, however, Ukraine has committed itself to ensuring gender symmetry in all spheres of public life including in the judicial system. Analysis of scientific research in recent years has established that gender equality is traditionally understood as a component of the general principle of equality, is an attribute of the democratic construction of society, and its establishment is aimed at providing equal social rights and opportunities for men and women, regardless of gender. Achievement of gender parity in Ukraine is impossible without a corresponding consolidation of provisions in the norms of current legislation, and the establishment of a legal state, the development of civil society, and prospects for European integration necessitate the formation of gender legislation and an effective policy of equal rights for women and men. Now the most achievements in the field of gender equality are observed at the legislative level, however, in practical implementation significant progress was not achieved, which causes Ukraine’s low position in international rankings on gender equality and a significant lag behind European indicators. The legal principle of gender equality involves the equality of social statuses of men and women, but taking into account the physiological characteristics of the articles. The law will respond better to all members of society in the event of gender-based symmetry and in the judiciary, and to fully and equally worthy and talented men and women judges in the judiciary. Under such circumstances, the issue of the genderlessness of the judiciary profession, which is filled with gender content during the conduct of judicial activity, access of judges to managerial positions and decision-making on gender-sensitive affairs, is important.
