Abstract:
The article is dedicated to the analysis of peculiarities of forming the culture of citizen participation
in the context of the realization of real people`s rule in Ukraine. The relevance of the topic is
conditioned by the modern processes of becoming Ukraine as a democratic state, which includes
the active involvement of citizens in the social and political life of the country through the
realization of the right to govern in the context of the implementation of real people`s rule.
However, the low legal and political culture of Ukrainian citizens and the lack of elaboration of this
political and legal topic indicate the urgent need to research tools for the formation of citizen`s
culture. This article analyzes the situation with the development of civic education in Ukraine as a
tool for forming a culture of citizen participation in the context of people`s rule realization, its
structure, forms, mechanisms, and successful implementation cases. The relationship between
civic education and its influence on the formation of legal knowledge, democratic values, and
political and legal orientations is explored.
