Abstract

Materials and Methods. Implementation of the goal and objectives is achieved by using a comprehensive methodological approach with the participation of general scientific and specifically legal methods, as well as methods of applied analysis. The method of scientific criticism allowed us to identify the main contradictions of the theory of sustainable development. Results. The authors highlighted, scientifically substantiated, and characterised the structural elements of the system of state legislation aimed at sustainable development. The article concludes that at the present stage of development the state remains the only force capable of organizing society, coordinating individual and group behavior and providing power and normative order to solve common problems that threaten the foundations of human life. Discussion and Conclusions The authors believe that the theory of sustainable development, perceived in world politics as a strategy for the future, has serious contradictions. Failure of the theory of sustainable development as a holistic concept should not lead to ignoring the problems it is aimed at. At the present stage, measures taken at the level of individual states and their regional associations may be the most effective. The possibilities for global regulation under the conditions of "permocrisis" and the denial of the foundations of the current world order are very limited, largely due to their unfairness. Therefore, an effective regulator of sustainable development at this stage can be a dynamically developing system of national legislation.
