Abstract

In this article, we have explored the constitutional principles of judicial security on the example of Ukraine. We found that researchers have not paid enough attention to the security system of the judiciary in Ukraine in the framework of sustainable development. We used the Doctrinal legal research methodology to answer four research questions. First, we explored the content of the security concept in Ukrainian law. Secondly, we have established the extent to which the Constitution of Ukraine covers the security of the judiciary. Third, we described the distinction between internal and external threats to the security of the judiciary. Fourth, we have summarized the specific threats to the security of the judiciary mentioned in the Constitution of Ukraine. For each of the issues, we have provided recommendations to achieve sustainable development of Ukraine in the course of legal reform. As part of the discussion, we voiced recommendations for the participation of judicial self-government and the Higher Council of Justice in ensuring the security of the judiciary. Our results complement the knowledge of the legal nature and constitutional principles of the judiciary. The presented recommendations can be used in formulating proposals for sustainable development strategies and directions of judicial reform.
