The purpose of the article is to analyze the internal threats to national security and democracy in Ukraine, including imperfect legislation, corruption problems and a departure from the world’s democratic norms and standards, and to determine ways to overcome these phenomena.

It has been proved that to promote the development of civil society and the emergence of Ukraine as a state of law, an urgent need is to establish a constructive dialogue between the authorities and civil society.

Effective public administration requires a consistent anti-corruption policy, which should be implemented through: compliance with legislation, limiting the control and regulatory functions of the state, motivating state employees to work conscientiously, ensuring the inevitability of punishment for corruption offenses. Ukraine must adhere to international obligations and inherit the best international practices for carrying out democratic reforms.
