HISTORICAL-LEGAL ASPECTS OF FREE PRIVATIZATION OF AGRICULTURAL LANDS

Summary/Abstract: The article examines the historical and legal aspects of free agricultural land privatization, highlighting its role in transitioning the agrarian sector to market relations. It notes provisions in the Land Code of the Ukrainian SSR (1990) aimed at liberalizing the land system for a market economy. Legislative consolidation in 1992 preceded the privatization of agricultural land, later regulated by presidential decrees. Specifics of privatization by Ukrainian citizens, including collective enterprise members, are analyzed, along with the mechanism of free privatization using land shares. The article separately considers privatization of state and communal agricultural lands by entity employees and pensioners. It points out that modern free land privatization, especially in agriculture, no longer serves its intended social function, suggesting a need for radical reform and monetization of the process while preserving certain elements during state and communal land privatization.
