the main source of constitutional law, which is the starting point for
every law branch of Ukraine.
The disposition of the theory of law is the fact that the system of
law is divided into two subsystems: public law and private law.
Within this division of law, branches of legislation are formed: within
the framework of public law – constitutional, administrative, criminal,
financial laws; in the private law – civil, family, labour and other
branches of legislation. On the other hand, while determining the
status of a person in the society, constitutional law lays the
foundations of private law regulating relations between individuals.
The most close connection of constitutional law is with
administrative law regulating the state management and determining
its forms and methods. One of the functions of the latter is to transfer
the static provisions of constitutional law into the dynamics of social
relations, which establishes the foundations of the system and
organization of executive power, legal responsibility, including
administrative liability.
Administrative law implements the power of constitutional
status of governing bodies, and its sanctions in certain cases protect
the norms of constitutional law.
There is a close connection between constitutional and financial
laws, where the subject is the regulation of mobilization, distribution
and use of public funds. The foundations of such activities are laid in
the norms of constitutional law. In turn, the rules of financial law
regulate the financing of subjects of constitutional law such as the
Verkhovna Rada, the Constitutional Court, and local self-government
bodies.
The close relationship of constitutional law is with criminal law,
since its norms contain prohibitions on certain behaviour under the
threat of coercion by the state. The Constitution defines the content
and principles of criminal policy, its purpose and social orientation.
The criminal and legal rules also protect many constitutional and legal
rules.
