Mechanisms for protecting the rights of military personnel: a comparative legal analysis

Abstract

The article provides a comparative legal analysis of the mechanisms for protecting the rights of military personnel in the Republic of Kazakhstan and several foreign countries, and identifies effective measures to ensure a balance between constitutional guarantees of individual rights and the requirements of military discipline. The purpose of the study is to determine an effective law enforcement mechanism through a comparative legal analysis of the specifics of protecting the rights of military personnel in different countries. The research employs comparative legal, formal legal, systemic-structural, and human rights analysis meth
ods. The study analyzes the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation, Germany, Sweden, and the United States in the military sphere. As a result, the effectiveness of a multi-level law enforcement model has been determined, including interdepartmental, judicial, parliamentary, and international oversight in protecting the rights of military personnel. The findings highlight the need to improve Kazakhstan’s legislation and introduce institutional mechanisms for the protection of military per
sonnel’s rights. The refinement of human rights legislation and the implementation of effective protection measures are of practical importance.
