STATE CRISIS IN BELARUS AND THE IDEA OF JUSTICE IN THE PUBLIC CONSCIOUSNESS

Abstract

In Belarus, there is a state crisis, which the current President A. Lukashenko stubbornly refuses to recognize. Without taking into account the generational change that has taken place during his presidency and the pace of changes in the views of the young generation of Belarusians, he is convinced that it is possible to effectively lead the country with speeches, tough instructions, "landings" of negligent officials and businessmen, regular personnel changes. Such management methods have led to instability in the government, in the entire management structure, to an economic crisis, and most importantly-to the endless postponement of long-overdue reforms and solutions to the most acute problems of the economy and social sphere.
