Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of the features of local self-government in the Republic of Georgia at the end of the 20th–21st centuries. This study allows us to assess the legal development of local self-government in Georgia during the period under review and analyze the problems of interaction between central and local authorities. According to the author, in the conditions of managing society during the period under review in Georgia, elements of state administration and local self-government were combined. Throughout the 20th century, methods of public administration were predominant. However, already at the beginning of the 21st century, the process of changing the functions of managing the affairs of society actualized the problem of creating an independent system of self-government. This was partly facilitated by Georgia’s accession to the Council of Europe in 2000, and as a consequence of this, by the assumption of obligations to reduce the direct influence of the state on local governments, as well as the formation of exclusively elected local authorities. Consequently, improving the structure of local self-government in the Republic of Georgia, on the one hand, and the procedure for its interaction with government bodies, on the other, constituted the content of municipal construction at the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries.
