Abstract

In the article the author analyzes the concept of "municipal law of Ukraine as a branch of law" in the context of the theory of municipal dualism, provides its advanced definition and outlines methods of legal regulation of this complex field of the national legal system. It is suggested to take into the account that the municipal law of Ukraine is a set of legal norms that form a complex branch of national law and regulate social relations connected with local self-government, including the direct democracy at the local level, the creation and functioning of local self-government bodies according to their own and delegated powers. It is formulated that municipal law as a branch of law applies the same methods of legal regulation as a branch of constitutional law (imperative and dispositive), but the proportion of the imperative method’s application is less than in municipal law is less than in constitutional law. This is because, above all, of the theory of municipal dualism, that suggests a certain degree of local selfgovernment independence from the state.
