Адаптація європейських антикорупційних стратегій: досвід Ізраїлю та можливості для України

The article analyzes the possibilities of implementing international experience in forming anti-corruption policy in Ukraine. The relevance of the article is explained by the fact that effective fight against corruption is one of the key problems of Ukraine on its way to membership in the European Union and integration with the countries of the global West, as evidenced by the reports of the European Commission, the US Department of State, other official and statistical data of international organizations and officials, in the context of which the experience of Israel as a country whose anti-corruption policy is largely based on European standards can become an effective example for implementation in the national governance. The purpose of the article is to analyze the state anti-corruption strategies of the European Union and Israel, to assess the effectiveness of Israel's implementation of the European experience and to analyze the feasibility of Ukraine's adoption of the anti-corruption practices of the countries analyzed herein. To achieve this aim and fulfill the arising tasks, several scientific methods were used, namely: formal legal, formal logical, comparative, critical analysis, and comprehensive methods. The empirical basis of the study was formed by legislation, judicial and law enforcement practices, official statistical and analytical data of the European Union, the State of Israel, international organizations and institutions, and special economic and legal literature. The authors examine key aspects of European and Israeli legislation, review the main anti-corruption mechanisms and strategic courses of the states in the field of fighting corruption. A comparative analysis of the anti-corruption strategies of the European Union and the State of Israel is made with a focus on the prerequisites for their formation and the measures taken to implement them. The authors analyze the similarities between the anti-corruption policies of the European Union and Israel, as well as the results of Israel's implementation of European practices. On the basis of this analysis, in a comparative context with the State of Israel, the authors formulate conclusions about the usefulness of applying anti-corruption practices and strategies of the European Union and Israel by Ukraine and assess the prospects for such application.
