Abstract

The presented scientific article examines the features of the right to associate in trade unions in the Republic of Azerbaijan. The importance of the creation and activity of trade unions in the development of civil society is substantiated. It is noted, that on the basis of the right to association, various public organizations are being created in society. Within the framework of these organizations, members of the community ensure or defend their common interests. In order to determine the place of the right to associate in trade unions, it is important to analyze the level of its compatibility with other human rights and freedoms. As you know, the right to association is closely related to such social rights as the right to work and rest. Therefore, it was advisable to first determine the relationship of the right of association with these rights. The main goal of the modern state is to ensure the well-being and free development of the individual. Therefore, we can say that in the constitutions of such states, the right to work is separately enshrined. It is important to define the relationship of the right to association with other human rights. This will form a broader understanding of the nature of the right of association. Within the framework of this scientific article, the significant place of the right to association in trade unions is determined among constitutional human rights in the Republic of Azerbaijan. The right to association creates a real opportunity for the realization of other important social and political rights.

It is also noted, that the issue of the activity of trade unions is in the center of attention of researchers in many countries. Analyzing the characteristics of trade unions, it is noted, that they are important aspects of civil society. The article also examines the highlights of civil society. It is noted, that civil society consists mainly of public organizations. The level of development of civil society depends on the level of effective activity of public organizations. In this regard, trade unions occupy a special place. These and other issues are comprehensively considered in the presented scientific article.
