Abstract:

The market economy, on the principles of which the Ukrainian society develops, assumes that business entities are created, develop and as a result of miscalculations in the management system may cease to exist. On the legal plane, the process of termination of the enterprise occurs by the recognition of insolvency and the passage of the procedure of bankruptcy. State-owned enterprises are not an exception. They can also be an inefficient business entity and require legal registration for the termination of activities. Taking into account the topicality, the article’s aim was defined in accordance with the already considered cases. Namely: the Ukraine’s state enterprises bankruptcy through the European Court of Human Rights prism. One took into account all the peculiarities concerned with the topical issue. In the research the analysis of real cases of declaring bankruptcy of Ukrainian state enterprises was carried out from the plane of human rights protection taking into account the practice of the European Court of Human Rights. The analysis of peculiarities of establishing the procedure for the disposition of property and repayment of obligations of state-owned enterprises in accordance with court decisions was carried out. It is established that since 2019 there is no legislative possibility of recognition of bankruptcy of state enterprise, which on the one hand minimizes misconduct towards state enterprises and deprives the possibility of abuse, and on the other hand - complicates the process of terminating the existence of inefficient state enterprises that cause damage to the state and through the law, unsettlement cannot be eliminated. The practical significance of the obtained results is the advisability of taking into account the experience of human rights protection in the process of bankruptcy proceedings against state-owned enterprises.
