Суб’єкт та об’єкт процесу трансформації сільських територій

Abstract

One of the fundamental tasks for Ukraine’s development is to ensure stable socio-economic development of both the country as a whole and its smallest territorial and administrative units. In turn, changes, which very often take place as transformation processes, are an integral element (prerequisite) for the development of any process or phenomenon. The article is aimed at identifying a system of subjects and objects of the transformation process in rural areas. To our opinion, the subjects of transformation in rural areas includes both producers and consumers of socially necessary goods, as well as those who ensure the functioning of economic entities in rural areas to achieve public welfare. The subject of rural areas transformation is the carrier of substantive and practical work, the source of socio-economic activity aimed at the transformation object. Both an individual resident of rural areas, and various socio-economic groups can take on the role of the subject of rural transformation. We have identified two groups of transformation subjects in rural areas: individuals (rural population, households, community, entrepreneurs) and legal entities (enterprises, rural authorities, NGOs). The main transformation objects in rural areas include the following: human potential, natural resource potential, financial potential, intellectual potential, information potential, and infrastructure. In the process of scientific understanding of any socio-economic phenomenon or process additi not only the subject and object are to be considered, but also the aspects which are part of the object. We have identified the following main aspects of transformation in rural areas: the relationship of society and nature, land (market) relations, market environment, R&D system, management system, financial relations, social relations.
