Municipal-private Partnership Research Articles

Prospects for the application of the mechanism of municipal-private partnership (MPP)

The article is devoted to the problematic issues of the implementation of municipal-private partnership practices and the prospects for its development. The author of the article proposes a revision of those areas where MPP can be successfully implemented, and the expansion of their spectrum. It is noted that the area which is undeservedly ignored by local authorities in the context of attracting private partners is cultural and leisure services. The sphere of tourism is also highlighted as promising in this context. The problem of a high level of bureaucracy and the cumbersome procedures of municipal-private partnerships has been identified; it was determined that the problem of lack of awareness and qualification of private partners remains relevant. According to the authors, formation of a training system, creation of educational programs, hotlines and information centers, communication channels for communication with representatives of the commercial sector are promising. The authors of the article have come to the conclusion that it is necessary to reform the system of financial regulation of PPP mechanisms by intensifying the practice of investing in infrastructure bonds and expanding the list of special economic zones. The problem of regional inequality in relation to the ongoing PPP projects has been highlighted, which requires a restructuring of approaches to the territorial diffusion of PPP projects. A problematic aspect of PIL is, among others, the lack of separate tools and practices for monitoring the effectiveness of partnerships. The prospects of joint efforts of municipalities and private business in the field of achieving sustainable development goals and implementing joint projects in the areas of waste processing, water treatment, etc. have been proposed.

CATEGORIZATION OF PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP IN THE CONCEPTUAL SPACE OF THE SOCIAL STATE

The article studies the problematic issues of scientific understanding and the correlation of the notions of public-private/public-private partnership in a categorical series of concepts that reveal the essence and mechanisms of the functioning of a social state in the theory of public administration. Is done semantic analysis a family of related scientific categories ‘social partnership’, ‘public-private partnership’, ‘intersectoral partnership’, ‘state-private partnership’ and ‘municipal-private partnership’, which mean the same process and are different only the definition of the range of subjects of social action in the application of public dialogue and the implementation of social policies aimed at building a social state in Ukraine. It is argued that in the course of state-private partnership, the satisfaction of the society with the activities of state and local authorities, which, in turn, forms the trust of the people in power, stimulates them to fulfil their duties better. And this is a prerequisite for ensuring well-being in the country as a whole. Thus, the mechanism of public-private partnership is one of the key elements of a public (social) dialogue in the discursive space of state social policy that brings Ukraine closer to Europe, promotes the formation of a socially oriented economy and socially responsible governance as crucial elements for the development of a social state. Meanwhile, there is still no steady practices of partnership between public administration and civil society institutions in areas such as the formation of public policy, its monitoring, public control over the activities of central executive authorities, local governments, and budget financing agencies, etc. at present.

Development of municipal-private partnership in the system of municipal crediting of Ukraine

The object of research is the processes of formation and development of municipal-private partnership (MPP) in the system of communal lending in Ukraine. One of the most problematic places of the object of study is the lack of a unified definition of MPP in the scientific economic literature and current legislation. In the course of the study, general scientific and special methods are used, namely: abstract-logical to generalize the theoretical foundations of the emergence and development of MPP; analysis, synthesis, logical generalization to substantiate the prerequisites for development, the subject-objective characteristics of MPP, the means of increasing the effectiveness of such a partnership. Systematization of the conceptual and categorical apparatus with respect to the definition of the MPP essence allows to conclude that there is no single definition in the scientific literature. The author has provided his own MPP interpretation as a tool to ensure the development of long-term mutually beneficial cooperation of local governments with business structures and the public. With the help of MPP, a policy of regional and municipal socio-economic development is being implemented, and infrastructure and other projects that are socially important for the development of territorial units are co-financed.A systematic analysis of the problems of the development of small private entrepreneurship in Ukraine allowed to justify the direction of their elimination. The obtained results allow to determine the specific features of the MPP and its distinctive features from the state-private partnership (SPP). It is established that attracting private investors requires the development of an appropriate regulatory framework, restoring confidence in the instruments of local loans and the activities of local governments. To do this, it is necessary to ensure the openness and transparency of the MPP implementation projects by creating online platforms through which private investors can receive the necessary information. The construction of the scheme of the constituent elements of the MPP functioning allows to establish the subject-object composition, to determine the prerequisites for the development of such a partnership and its effectiveness. Thanks to this, it is possible to obtain a budgetary, social, environmental effect at the level of administrative-territorial units and the development of a system of communal lending in Ukraine.
