Конференція, що була проведена Програмою РАДА 18 травня 2018 року, надала можливість представникам Верховної Ради України та громадськості з одного боку практично побачити роботу розроблених інструментів взаємодії між ВРУ та виборцями, а також обмінятись думками, ідеями та інформацією щодо взаємодії між Парламентом та ОГС. Результати конференції найбільш цінні тим, що вони є компіляцією поглядів на питання взаємодії як з бору ВРУ, так і з боку ОГС.

Робота народного депутата України в окрузі: взаємодія з виборцямиradaprogram
У демократичній державі, якою прагне бути Україна, представницька функція парламенту є однією з ключових, що передбачає різноманітні формати комунікації народного депутата України з виборцями. Вона є невід’ємною складовою здійснення повноважень члена парламенту. Так, стаття 24 Закону України «Про статус народного депутата України» від 17.11.1992 № 2790-XII зобов’язує народних депутатів «постійно підтримувати зв'язки з виборцями, вивчати громадську думку, потреби і запити населення», а також «інформувати виборців про свою депутатську діяльність через засоби масової інформації, на зборах виборців періодично, але не рідше двох разів на рік». Крім того, ст. 7 Закону визначає, що «народні депутати, обрані в одномандатних виборчих округах, зобов'язані підтримувати зв'язок з виборцями своїх округів», а «народні депутати, обрані в багатомандатному загальнодержавному виборчому окрузі, здійснюють зв'язок з виборцями, які мешкають на території України, у порядку персонального представництва, визначеному депутатськими фракціями (групами) Верховної Ради України відповідно до закону».
Виборці з великим інтересом готові слідкувати за діяльністю народних депутатів між виборами і очікують на отримання інформації з перших вуст. Про такий інтерес свідчать, наприклад, результати соціологічного опитування, проведеного наприкінці 2017 року Центром Розумкова1. Так, цікавість до інформації про діяльність парламенту виявляють більше ніж половина громадян України (53,6%). Водночас, ще більша частка опитаних зазначила, що із засобів масової інформації отримує переважно негативну інформацію про Верховну Раду (56,2%), а майже третина (32%) вважають, що сьогодні бракує інформації про діяльність парламентарів у виборчих округах. Красномовним є й те, що третина опитаних (33,3%) навіть не знають, хто з депутатів представляє у Верховній Раді їхній округ.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

began its work on November 27, 2014 following
the snap parliamentary election, held under the
mixed or parallel voting system.
Mixed electoral system:

proportional party lists with a 5% election
threshold.
• 50% of the seats are elected in
225 constituencies with a first-past-the-post
electoral system in one round.
Due to the law “On ensuring the rights and
freedoms of citizens and legal regime on the
temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine”
elections did not take place in 12 Crimean
constituencies, 9 constituencies in Donetsk

factions and deputy groups in the Parliament.

CONSTITUTION OF UKRAINE
Article 90.
The President of Ukraine shall have the right to an early termination of powers
of the Verkhovna Rada in the following cases:
the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine fails to form a coalition of deputy
factions in compliance with Article 83 of this Constitution within one
month
14
15. The Coalition Crisis
Over the next almost two years factions of the parties
“Batkivshchyna”, “Samopomich” Union” and Oleh Liashko
Radical Party have left the coalition.
Currently, the exact number of MPs in coalition is not known.
On April 18, 2016 Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada of
Ukraine Andriy Paruby announced, that he possesses the
information on the number of MPs in the coalition “European
Ukraine” (230 MPs). But until now this information is not
available to public.
Due to the statement of the civil network “OPORA” at the moment the coalition
“European Ukraine”includes:
• Faction of the Party “Petro Poroshenko Bloc”
• Faction of the Political party “People’s Front”
• Individual deputies who had been previously excluded from the coalition factions,
but did not withdrew their signatures from the coalition agreement

* Due to the statement of the Verkhovna Rada Chairperson – Andrii Parubii 16
17. • Definition and status of opposition in Ukrainian Parliament are still
not legally regulated (opposition`s existence is not normalized by
Constitution). That is why factions and groups can be defined as
oppositional ones either on the basis of their public statements and
rhetoric or due to the facts, whether they`ve joined coalition or
not. Because of this, a situation can take place when factions
compete for the right to be considered the opposition.
The Opposition
