Abstract

The decentralization of power and administration, which began in Ukraine in 2015, has made some changes in the territorial organization of power and administrative-territorial organization. united territorial communities (UTC) were formed, which included rural and urban populations. Their administrative centers became not only towns and settlements, but also villages. In addition to the basic level of administrative and territorial organization of the country, its district level has also been transformed. There was a significant reduction of districts and their consolidation. As a result of these transformations, rural and urban agglomerations were formed, thus creating the preconditions for overcoming social and economic inequality and improving the quality of life of the rural and urban population. The solution to this important social problem has brought to the fore the problem of finding economic entities capable of transforming these socio-spatial entities into an space of inclusive well-being. The scientific and practical relevance of this problem has determined the purpose of the study, which is to reveal the essence of rural agglomerations and to justify the feasibility of consideration as drivers of their inclusive development of agricultural holdings. To achieve the goal of the study used systemic and synergetic approaches, the concept of spatial organization of society, the author's method of sampling and classification of UTC and new districts, methods of comparison, SWOT-analysis, deduction and induction, synthesis and analysis. The results of the study are characterized by scientific novelty, which consists in the identification of rural agglomerations as socio-spatial formations of the continuous type, substantiation of the directions of evolution of agricultural holdings into inclusive associations. The conclusions and recommendations made based on the results of the study correspond to its purpose and objectives, are characterized by applied orientation and targeting and can be used by public authorities, UTC, business entities for implementation in social practice.
