Mechanism Of Public Management Research Articles

Legal mechanisms of public management of financial and economic processes

The article considers the assertion that law and public administration are each an independent system inevitably interconnected in terms of scientific research or in practice. The role and nature of legal mechanisms within the frame of public administration, in particular in management of financial and economic processes, are considered through the lens of public administration transformation from New Public Management to Smart Governance paradigm.

Improvement of public management mechanisms in the direction of countering hybrid threats to national security

The article represents an attempt of conceptual comprehension of the phenomenon of hybrid threats, which, although inextricably linked with hybrid warfare, still may not include armed conflict even with participation of only irregular combatants. Rather, hybrid threats are aimed at undermining adversary’ infrastructure or gaining much control over it, and sow internal societal tension. Geopolitical components, drivers and factors of hybrid threats are analyzed. Based on analysis of literature sources and practical cases, it is concluded that anticipatory approach is the only way of effective combatting hybrid threats, but implementation of this approach could be backed by a collective change in mentality and a stronger national narrative, while the initiative should be suggested by public administration. There is a need for fresh thinking while expanding the traditional enemy-centric threat assessment and response.

Risk management technology in the public sector: challenges and opportunities

The paper examines the importance of using effective risk management methods in the public sector, emphasizing the need for an integrated approach to this problem. The author emphasizes that public management mechanisms must be supported by appropriate technologies to ensure sustainable functioning. The use of ISO 31000 and ISSAI 9100 standards helps structure the risk management process and increase its effectiveness. Risk management should be based on the identification, assessment and response to risks and take into account the influence of various factors on the risk management process. The author also notes that risk management in the public sector is complicated by certain factors (frequent management changes, division of operating budgets and programs, lack of clear risk indicators, etc.). The analysis of the issue demonstrates that the system of assessment, management and risk reduction should play a key role in public administration. The main task of risk management as an element of public management is to make effective decisions, create the necessary conditions and plan actions taking risks into account to minimize their negative impact on planned results. As a result of the use of risk management technologies, it is possible to identify risks, determine factors and sources of risk, assess the degree and probability of occurrence of hazards and, ultimately, develop an optimal plan of management actions. The results of the study demonstrate that the issue of forming a risk management mechanism in the public sector requires further scientific research on the application of theoretical developments in the practical activities of public management and administration bodies of Ukraine. The paper also focuses on the issue of risk management in public sector organizations, and concludes that in order to assess the value, type and impact of risk, it is necessary to review the internal part of the organization and its management processes, as well as its environment. Such a review of risks should be complemented by increased risk awareness at each level of the management hierarchy and in the day-to-day activities of all employees of the organization. Thus, the need to use modern risk management technologies in the public sector is outlined in order to increase the effectiveness of the decisions made and minimize the negative impact of potential risks on the results of the work of management bodies.

The significance of the Council of Europe’s governance tool “Territorial and cross-border cooperation” for regional development: Literature review

Pursuing the best European standards and practices of public administration and good governance of territorial and cross-border cooperation to strengthen the potential and institutional capacity of communities and regions of Ukraine is among the priority tasks of Ukraine’s regional policy and European integration course. Therefore, the purpose of the present article is to determine directions for improving the public management mechanism of regional development of territorial communities and regions of Ukraine by applying good governance standards and tools of the Centre of Expertise for Good Governance of the Council of Europe based on the expertise of the Association of European Border Regions. The following scientific methods have been applied in the course of the research: historical, logical and generalization, enabling us to investigate the state and expertise of developing scientific and theoretical provisions, as well as actions taken by subjects and participants of regional policy when developing good governance of territorial and cross-border cooperation. It has been discovered that one of the ways to improve the public management mechanism of the regional development of communities and regions is the introduction of the cyclical mechanism of good governance of the Council of Europe, which consists of: development of standards; creation of tools, recommendations, reports, manuals; research of best practices (golden triangle of good governance “standards – tools – practice”). The necessity of further formulation of directions for improving the public management mechanism of regional development of communities and regions of Ukraine through interaction and partnership with the Association of European Border Regions has been substantiated. Conducting a scientific and theoretical study of the standard and toolkit of good governance “Territorial and cross-border cooperation” of the Council of Europe, as well as the study of the Association of European Border Regions practices have made it possible to focus on the implementation of the standard and toolkit of good governance “Territorial and cross-border cooperation” at the local and regional levels. The results of the research can have practical value for representatives of public authorities and the public sector to update local and regional development strategies based on the implementation of good governance standards and tools

FEATURES OF PUBLIC MANAGEMENT OF THE CULTURE SPHERE IN THE CONTEXT OF MODERN SOCIO-CULTURAL STRUCTURE OF SOCIETY

The article concludes that the source of renewal of the coming sociocultural system is innovation in science, culture, education, ethics and ideology. The main determinants of the sociocultural system are considered, which in principle determine the specifics of state cultural policy and the features of the mechanism of public management of the culture sphere. It is noted that the fundamental basis of the sociocultural system emerging is the paradigm of integralism, positioned as an epoch-making innovation of the first half of the 21st century. It is noted that the vector of transformation of modern society implementation is impossible without defining high goals and ideals, scientifically substantiated and adopted by generations of Ukraine in the 21st century. It is concluded that a new ideology is needed that meets the real conditions and value system of a humanistic noospheric post-industrial society.

DEVELOPMENT OF STATE POLICY MECHANISMS IN THE SPHERE OF DIGITALIZATION OF INNOVATIVE ACTIVITIES IN UKRAINE

The directions of the development of public management mechanisms in the field of digitalization in Ukraine from the standpoint of ensuring innovative activity have been determined. Among these directions, knowledge management, big data management, effective and balanced use of digital technologies, etc. are singled out. It has been established that there are several options for the development of public administration in the field of digitalization (centralized, decentralized, etc.). It was revealed that Ukraine is primarily characterized by centralized management. Evidence of this is the functioning Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, which is the central body of executive power in the relevant field. This authority sets the tone in the development of the national system of public administration at all its levels. At the same time, the work identifies the need to improve the concept of digital development of the public administration system in Ukraine.

FEATURES OF THE DECENTRALIZED MODEL OF PUBLIC MANAGEMENT OF GENERAL SECONDARY EDUCATION IN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES

The article examines decentralized models of general secondary education management in Poland and Germany. It was revealed that reforming the system of public administration in the field of education became a component of preparation for European integration. However, the specific steps of the transformation of the management system in today's conditions involve not only the introduction of elements of European models of education management into domestic education, but also a comprehensive analysis of their positive and negative impact on the functioning of the educational system. It was determined that many countries of the European Union consider the idea of introducing a decentralized model of education management to be progressive, therefore, studying the experience of the functioning of mechanisms of public management of the education system of European countries is instructive for the post-war development of the education management system in Ukraine. The article notes that in Poland, the management of reform processes and activities of secondary education institutions is carried out by self-governing bodies. Here, the powers of the public regarding control over the activities of educational institutions of local communities are maximally expanded, which are strengthened by the organizational and financial responsibility of local authorities for the development of education. Financing of school education in Poland is carried out from the state budget, and local self-government bodies set the rules for paying teachers, are responsible for investing in education, and set the rules for receiving and using private funds by schools. It is noted that the decentralized system of education management in Germany is determined by its federal structure: each state conducts its own educational policy. It was concluded that the democratization of the society of Poland and Germany is characterized by the search for such options of education management that would most successfully ensure the support of educational institutions from the local community. In these countries, it was considered expedient to abandon the system of centralized management of the network of educational institutions and transfer responsibility to the local executive authorities in whose territory they are located. The considered experience of functioning of the decentralized model can be useful when introducing similar models in Ukraine.

Daily Space

Three articles in this issue of Arquitecturas del Sur are dedicated to collective housing, as the housing shortage has led to new and better forms of citizen participation in its solution. The Indigenous Temporary Accommodation in Florianopolis handles an essentially Latin American problem: access for Indigenous people to protected state housing. In this case, the presence of the city’s original inhabitants examines the possibilities of physical and symbolic spaces in the contemporary city and the professional role that looks into the responses. Next, the text on collaborative housing analyzes the case of Spain, and its relationship with public management mechanisms. The case of Gran Canaria looks at mutual aid issues, transfer of use, cooperativism, and citizen participation. In this way, the self-construction system of the Andalusian Junta, a practice that is as effective as it is controversial, and representative of a socialist cooperativism and cohabitation developed by the Barcelona City Council, converge in the debate on cooperative management. The third text looks into one of the latest events disclosed on CORVI’s actions, before its dissolution in 1976. It explores a management model that revealed the role of construction companies as a new player in the habitational process for the case of the Santiago Amengual Neighborhood. A second thematic group in this issue, materialized in its last 3 articles, returns to the structural issues of modern-day architecture, whose presence is diving deeper into the disciplinary debate. The places of memory seem to exceed the margins of an understanding based on heritage discourse. The memory and belonging of daily spaces, turn one to the nodes of memory and collective coherence. This is the case of the Community School – Center of Memory and Integrated Action to Care for the Forest of Galilea and the Territory of Colombia. Likewise, the individual, isolated, and selective expressions examine those unusual experiences where otherness exercises protagonism over experiences in the architecture and city of Santiago de Chile. Finally, revisiting the works of a master like Niemeyer opens the possibility for rereading, through actions based on the Portuguese decisions in two of his works: the urban complex of Pena Furada, in Portugal (1965), and Plaza XV, in Rio de Janeiro (1991).

ORGANIZATIONAL AND ECONOMIC MECHANISM OF PUBLIC MANAGEMENT OF UKRAINE ECONOMY RECOVERY UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF INSTITUTIONAL, MANAGERIAL AND CORRUPTION RISKS

The article examines the content and components of the organizational and economic mechanisms of public management of the post-war and post-catastrophe recovery of the country's economy. Attention is paid to the impact of institutional, managerial and corruption risks on the reconstruction process. The stages (generations) of the reconstruction of the economies of the countries of the world after wars and disasters have been determined. An analysis of successful and unsuccessful global practices of international assistance for social and economic recovery is presented. The universal components of the national model of the organizational and economic mechanism of the public management of reconstruction are highlighted, for example, joint with the international community, careful planning to overcome the consequences of wars and disasters, the formation of the management organizational structure of the revival process, its financial support from various sources. It is emphasized that after the war, the fight against corruption will become the main challenge in Ukraine. The key elements of the organizational and economic mechanism of the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine based on the minimization of risks of an institutional, managerial and corruption nature are proposed. It is noted that, taking into account international experience, Ukraine has already begun the process of planning post-war economic rehabilitation with the initiative of the country's government to widely involve the world community in its discussion and implementation. As part of the work, it was stated that the plan should be clear in terms of goals, limited in time, consistent in execution, defined by final results. The article draws attention to the fact that Ukraine should become the "owner of the reconstruction", carry out the transformation itself under close international supervision and control. The need for coordination and integration of international aid, internal budgetary and extra-budgetary resources, investments, loans, and technical support based on the "single window" principle is indicated. In this regard, it is emphasized the need to form a reliable and authoritative institution that will be responsible for the process of reconstruction of Ukraine, coordination of internal and external efforts.

Municipal Housing Stock Management in Poland from a Public Management Perspective

ABSTRACT This paper identifies the management of municipal housing stock as an area of public management in an urban municipality, taking into account the legal, institutional and market conditions in Poland. In order to achieve this aim, the author examined relevant literature and pertinent legislation and employed an analysis of source (organizational) documentation on the management of municipal housing stock in provincial capital cities. The paper begins by discussing the essence, distinctive characteristics and concepts of public management as a sub-discipline of management sciences. Subsequently, it outlines the specificity of public management in a municipality as a local government unit. Against this background, the author goes on to identify the management of municipal housing stock from the standpoint of public management in an urban municipality by formulating its definition in a broad and narrow sense, followed by a synthetic characterization of this management in a functional and institutional approach, considering its basic organizational models. The research demonstrated that the management of municipal housing stock is subject to progressive marketization and tends to be shaped by such public management mechanisms as hierarchy, market and network. These mechanisms cause this management to operate in practice in a hybrid system.

STRATEGIC PLANNING OF HIGHER AND VOCATIONAL TECHNICAL EDUCATION SYSTEMS’ DEVELOPMENT IN DNIPRO REGION

Institutions of vocational (vocational and technical) and higher education are a basic component of the educational process of Ukraine, which in turn is a potential for the development of the national economy and a factor for ensuring food and environmental security, forming the socio-economic foundations of the development of the territories of the state, and improving the material well-being of the population. In the new socio-economic conditions, the modern education management system is gradually acquiring features of public self-government and the state-public model of management, which should ensure Ukraine's transition to a post-information society. At the same time, the modern management system of professional (vocational and technical) education should ensure anticipatory innovative development, as well as create conditions for reproduction of the socio-cultural environment for the development, self-affirmation and self-realization of the individual throughout life. The fundamental factor of effective activity and sustainable development of professional (vocational and technical) education institutions in the conditions of the introduction of digitalization in the country is the strategic planning of the VET system. Regarding vocational education, strategic planning is studied as the definition of strategic directions of transforming the content of vocational education, development of strategy for designing innovative educational process in vocational education, substantiation and disclosure of information and network transformation of vocational education, systematic justification of innovations in vocational education technical education as the main mechanism for implementation the strategic goals of sectoral development. Within the available scientific research, such important areas as generalization of the current state of public regulation of the vocational education system as a basis for strategic planning of its development, updating the system of evaluating the effectiveness of vocational education, optimizing the structure of the vocational education network in general and regional levels, mechanisms for financing the system of vocational education etc. Solving these problems is possible only through using of strategic planning to bring innovative changes in the public management of VET institutions in the region to address the external efficiency of this educational sector, based on the priority of achieving socio-economic results rather than sectoral goals. The strategic planning of the development of the VET system at the national and regional levels is both an object and a mechanism of public management, in addition, it is institutionalized in the system of public management based on the formation of a complex of regulatory support for such management activities. Within the framework of the institutional approach, strategic planning should be considered as a comprehensive mechanism of public management of the development of the regional VET system on the basis of ensuring consistency between the demand for workers of a market nature and the trends of socio-economic development, as well as the needs of individual and corporate consumers of educational services.

EUROPEAN EXPERIENCE IN THE TRAINING OF MEDICAL EDUCATION MANAGEMENT SPECIALISTS

The article examines the European experience in the field of training specialists in the management of medical education in Germany and Great Britain. It was determined that there is a widespread opinion in Ukraine that in the educational sphere of health care reforms were not implemented at all or were implemented ineffectively. This was facilitated by the vision that the main efforts of the executive authorities were aimed at preventing the collapse of the existing health care system and maintaining a minimum level of social security. On the basis of the analysis of the researches of domestic scientists, it was concluded that the results of their scientific researches make it possible to deepen the understanding of the problems of training specialists in the management of medical education. At the same time, the issue of applying foreign experience of such training has not been comprehensively reflected in the field of public administration knowledge. It was found that in the conditions of European integration, reforming the medical education system is impossible without taking into account the European experience, which will contribute to the development and implementation of a national comprehensive mechanism of public management of medical education. The reviewed various master’s programs in the field of medical education management in Germany and Great Britain revealed their advantages over those available today in Ukraine. It was determined that the introduction of standards for the training of masters of state management of medical education in European countries will contribute to the improvement of the content of domestic master’s programs, while creating greater employment opportunities on the domestic and global labor market. It was found that the professional training of the management personnel of the medical education system is extremely important and relevant today in Ukraine, due to the fact that in many European countries there is a growing interest in the training of highly qualified managers in the medical education system. The main efforts of European educational programs are aimed at increasing the level of requirements for the competence characteristics of managers of medical education institutions. Ways to overcome the problems of training medical education management specialists based on the introduction of new educational programs are proposed.

DIRECTIONS FOR IMPROVING THE MECHANISMS OF PUBLIC MANAGEMENT AND ADMINISTRATION IN THE SPHERE OF CIVIL PROTECTION IN UKRAINE

The article describes the features of the system of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in Ukraine in modern conditions. The efficiency and effectiveness of the system of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in Ukraine is determined. The problematic aspects and contradictions of the existing system of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in Ukraine are identified. The organizational, normative-legal, economic, social, ecological and other aspects of the system of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in Ukraine, which need improvement, are singled out. Suggestions are given on ways to improve the mechanisms of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in the context of European and Euro-Atlantic integration of Ukraine. The ways of solving problems and resolving the contradictions of the system of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in the current conditions of global challenges and risks are clarified. Construction and operation of a modern system of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection in Ukraine, which carries out appropriate activities to protect the population and territories from emergencies, ensuring the required level of fire safety does not always ensure high efficiency and effectiveness of its activities. This requires appropriate improvement of the mechanisms of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection. Ukraine has declared accession to the EU and NATO as one of the strategic issues of public policy that will contribute to the transformation of public management and administration in the sphere of civil protection. This is evidenced by the introduction of appropriate amendments to the Constitution of Ukraine. Thus, in the current conditions of existing global challenges and risks, it is especially important to build an effective and efficient system of public management and administration of the process of educating the population of Ukraine in civil protection by improving existing mechanisms for its implementation (including by amending the Civil Protection Code), their adaptation to European legislation in the context of European and Euro-Atlantic integration of Ukraine, active international cooperation in this area.
