Аналіз теоретико-методичних підходів до визначення та подолання регіональних проблем у системі публічного управління регіонами в Україні

Abstract

The topic of public administration of regions remains relevant for all countries of the world in different historical periods of society development. The effectiveness of regional policy on the basis of timely identification and solution of existing territorial problems is the basis for finding ideas and approaches to the formation and functioning of an efficient system of public management of the development of a country as a whole and its regions in particular. Features of the functioning of world countries in different time periods of their existence, such as, for example, the change of tendencies, the emergence of contradictions, the acquisition of importance of certain major ideas for the formation of areas of territorial management under different conditions of development, led to the emergence of a number of theories that in the practical field have become the basis for the development of a methodology for public management of regional development, allowing to determine the principles, priorities, directions, methods of formation and functioning, mechanisms and models of development and management, ways of using resources, and so on. Using them allows to explain and anticipate the tendencies in the development of regions, develop approaches to identifying and overcoming territorial problems, and form instruments for practical implementation. A significant number of theories of regional development proposed in the scientific circle, in accordance with the similarity of goals and directions of implementation, are united into groups. These are theories of spatial placement, neoclassical, cumulative growth, self-development and competitiveness, sustainability, etc. At the stage of the contemporary development of Ukraine, characterized by the introduction of decentralization processes into public management of territorial development, the generalization of many years of world experience (in particular, European) along with the accumulated national experience, the use of the theoretical foundations of regional management will contribute to further improvement and search for new scientific and methodological approaches to identifying the problems of the development of Ukrainian regions and ways to solve them.
