Review

Abstract. The article is devoted to the disclosure of the relationship, interaction and interdependence between political processes and the lawmaking process in terms of its constitutionalization. The main results of the study. The constitutionalization of the lawmaking process is defined as one of the ways of implementing the Constitution and introducing the rule of law into the regulation of public life, and therefore the lawmaking process includes not only a constitutional component, but also a political one. The author proves that political processes and the Ukrainian legislative process remain interdependent, which does not always lead to its constitutionalization, in particular, in terms of recognizing a person, his or her life and health, honor and dignity, inviolability and security as the highest social value and the State’s responsibility for its activities. It is substantiated that society and the public do not always perceive the constitutionality of those legislative reforms which have signs of a «legal revolution». Prompt corrective lawmaking, which began the implementation of all fundamental reforms, often leads to interference with fundamental human and civil rights and freedoms. Given the existence of destructive processes of statehood, the state of the lawmaking process is as complex as possible, and therefore requires a thorough constitutional technology. The author notes the significant role of the public in the lawmaking process as an expression of public expectations regarding the effectiveness of legislation. The constitutionalization of the legislative process in relation to revolutionary legal reforms is often not ensured, and if the draft laws are adopted as laws, the latter are subject to further review of the constitutionality of the amendments made, especially when the CCU has previously expressed a legal position on a particular issue and the legislator has re-enshrined similar legislative regulation, and often such legislative provisions are determined by the CCU to be inconsistent with the Constitution of Ukraine. Keywords: lawmaking process, constitutionalization, constitutionality, legal reforms, transitional society, political processes, corrective lawmaking. REFERENCES LIST OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS  LEGISLATION
