The article defines the legal imperatives of tolerance of social relations. The problem of tolerance is connected with a number of fundamental philosophical and worldview questions that affect the understanding of man, his identity, civic position, the possibilities and limits of nation- and state-building, the democratization of social life, the dialogue of cultures and civilizations, and the search for a "sophia" discourse of tolerance.
It was noted that tolerance is one of the values that is usually associated with the European style of legal thinking. Tolerance is not just a value that is given a legal meaning (that is, an end value), but a value that is legal in its content (that is, a means value).
It is concluded that the tolerance of social relations is inextricably linked with the application of law, the forms of its implementation, the implementation of legal activities, as well as ensuring the rights and legitimate interests of a person. Ideally, the entire legal system should be based on tolerance, serve as a means of its expression, consolidation, protection and protection. Being introduced into the practice of implementing the current law, tolerance acquires legal features that determine its official level. Ukraine's aspiration to join international organizations should be based on the recognition of the main international legal documents, which enshrine the principle of tolerance.
