Legal Regulation of State Control and Supervision: The Eurasian Agenda

Abstract

Aim. The purpose of the article is to substantiate the legal regulation of state control and supervision from the perspective of Eurasian economic integration. The author positions the consideration of control and supervisory activities in the context of integration processes as one of the approaches to the study of state control and supervision. Methods. The article utilizes such scientific methods as systems and comparative legal analysis, classification, and legal formalization. Results. The author analyzed the legal regulation of state control and supervision in the Eurasian Economic Union. Based on the analysis, the following features of control and supervision in the EAEU are highlighted: the public nature of such influence (including state, public control, as well as control by supranational bodies); impact exclusively on economic and related relations; positioning control and supervision as conditions for achieving the basic goals of integration; multi-level legal regulation and differences in the degree of unification of control and supervision impact. The author associates the prospects for the legal regulation of control and supervision in the EAEU with the increasing complexity of their structural content and the increase in their variety; the gradual expansion of the integration level of regulation, the unification of supervisory and control measures, and digitalization processes. Conclusions. Based on the analysis, the author identifies trends in the legal regulation of state control and supervision in the EAEU, including: the digitalization of control and supervision procedures and the development of a trust-based approach to control and control interactions; and the development of a classification of types of control and control activities in the EAEU. It is concluded that new types of control and supervision are initially regulated at the integration level, and their control and control mechanisms are as unified as possible. As a trend in the development of scientific research on control and supervision within the framework of Eurasian economic integration, the author highlights the possibility of considering control and supervision procedures as constraints on the development of individual commodity markets or, conversely, as support measures for them. It is concluded that the development of a single economic space in the EAEU entails the gradual formation of unified control and supervisory mechanisms designed to influence economic and related relations within the framework of Eurasian integration.
