Unfortunately, in Ukraine human dignity as a legal category envisaged by Article 3 of the Constitution of Ukraine has not been analyzed and interpreted by the constitutional jurisdiction body which is the only one which should have done this in detail and in a multidimensional manner over more than two decades of its existence, given the constitutional and legal nature of its status, this being an interpreter of the Fundamental Law of our State. This entails a legal vacuum in the entire national theory of human rights, since the right to human dignity, as well as the right to life is determinant to other fundamental human rights. In this context, a study of theoretical achievements by similar institutions of the European countries with regard to human dignity is becoming relevant. The contents of the article aim at highlighting only one of many but dominating aspect present in the doctrinal positions of the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany which concerns the absoluteness of the principle entrenched in Part 1, Article 1 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Germany (the Constitution of Germany) – human dignity is inviolable. As part of this task, the author attempts at demonstrating the path which the Federal Constitutional Court of Germany (the FCC) has already passed, with its legal conceptual vision and presentation remaining constant. The FCC has laid the major scope of doctrinal provisions regarding the features of a human being and the value of a particular personality as long ago as at the beginning of its operation, for the most part developing them subsequently, with due regard for social challenges and needs of a certain historical period. The purpose of the article is to show the theoretical approaches and the “deployment” of the ascending and fundamental essence of Part 1, Article 1 of the Constitution of Germany for other fundamental rights entrenched therein. Theoretical interpretations provided in the FCC decisions which are based on philosophical views on the “image” of a human being have already become the core not only of the constitutional doctrine in Germany, but also of the system of legal education of future lawyers. Accordingly, they are worthy of scientific and practical attention for the sake of a further development of Ukrainian constitutionalism in general and especially Ukrainian constitutional jurisdiction in particular.
