The methodology of the research is based on the up-to-date achievements of epistemology. The author uses the general philosophical and theoretical methods, dialectics, the system method, analysis, synthesis, analogy, deduction, observation, modeling, the traditional juridical methods (formal-logical), and the methods used in the specific sociological research (the statistical methods, expert evaluations, etc.). The results of the research can be used in the analysis of the genesis of development of the theory connected with the provision of citizens’ rights and freedoms in the administrative activities of the bodies of Internal Affairs (the police). The consideration of some problems of the provision of citizens’ rights and freedoms in the administrative activities of the bodies of Internal Affairs gives the opportunity to pay attention to the fact that the administrative-legal instruments can’t be effectively used without the application of intersectoral approach, particularly if it concerns the problem under consideration.
