WAYS TO IMPROVE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION MECHANISMS FOR THE FORMATION OF A POSITIVE IMAGE OF PUBLIC AUTHORITIES IN UKRAINE

The formation of a modern system of public administration in Ukraine requires adequate information support from the state authorities. The development of new communicative forms and methods of interaction between the authorities and the population, on the one hand, and the availability of public response, on the other, should stimulate a positive image of politicians and support for democratic transformation of the country as a whole. The image of state authorities, including the image of central executive bodies, is evaluative. The level of assessment of the image of public authorities by citizens may vary in accordance with the socio-political, economic and cultural conditions of society. The article identifies the main tasks of communication units in public authorities. Proposals for improving the information and communication mechanisms for the formation of a positive image of public authorities in Ukraine are presented. Specific proposals for the development of information and communication mechanisms for the formation of a positive image in the field of interaction between government and the media are proposed. The peculiarities of using the components of the information and communication mechanism of forming a positive image of the professional activity of the managerial staff are systematized. The most important task of government management is to master modern approaches to the collection, processing and effective use of information, methods and tools for its updating. The timeliness and urgency of making and implementing public administration decisions to support the socio-economic growth of the state and improve the social welfare of the population and the country as a whole will depend on the solution of this issue. It is determined that the improvement of information and communication mechanisms for the formation of a positive image should take place in four main areas, in particular: expanding the system of public relations; increasing the interaction of state power and mass media; improving the mechanism of providing public services; optimization of the personnel mechanism.

Legal mechanisms of public administration in Ukraine

Issues related to the analysis of the current and possible future changes in the constitutional status of public authorities in Ukraine and the legal mechanisms of public administration in the country are considered. An essential feature of state bodies is that only they are endowed with state powers. They perform their functions on behalf of the state in clearly defined forms. An attempt is made to analyze the legally defined organizational structure of legal mechanisms of public administration in the state. The main purpose of a research consists in carrying out the theoretical analysis and system approach to legal mechanisms of public administration in Ukraine and the constitutional relations of branches of the power in the state, disclosure of features of the constituent elements of a system of the constitutional relations of the state power in Ukraine. In the constitutional state the law always must be the primary act of a statement of the state power, and people have to be the only source of a statement of the state power. The most enlightened rulers, in whose hands unlimited all webs of power were concentrated, sooner or later became wayward tyrants who recognized only their authority, that they neglected freedom and, did not consider inalienable human rights. Therefore, further transfer of powers of public administration from local public authorities to local self-government bodies should be the subject of further research in this direction

Ambivalence of the functioning of public authorities in Ukraine

This article examines the issue of such a phenomenon as “ambivalence”, which is a modern negative phenomenon in the functioning of public authorities, as well as a corresponding obstacle in the development of Ukraine as a democratic, economically developed country that seeks to join the cohort of developed countries in Europe. The reasons for the occurrence of this phenomenon are analyzed and specific examples are given in the modern life of the Ukrainian society. Conclusions are made about the ways to overcome this negative phenomenon.

Рeculiarities of legal regulation of tax authorities of public authorities in Ukraine.

The article reveals the features of the characteristics of public authorities as subjects of tax relations in Ukraine. It is emphasized that legal personality as a legal nature determines the elemental composition of the tax legal personality of the state and necessarily has three elements - its legal capacity, legal capacity and tort. The latter is a necessary component of the tax legal personality of the state. Taxpayers also have the right to demand from the state certain behavior and apply to the competent authorities (European Court of Human Rights) to apply to the state tax liability measures together with the renewal of their fundamental rights and legitimate interests guaranteed by the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The study identified the relationship between such concepts as «mechanism of the state» and «state apparatus». The consistent transition from the general to the individual allowed to reveal the internal organizational structure of the system of public authorities as holders of tax powers and to outline the various grounds for their classification. This made it possible to distinguish in this system groups of bodies (a) of general competence, (b) special competence with part of the functions in the field of taxation, (c) special tax competence. The special position of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine in the tax sphere is also emphasized and the general tendency to a gradual increase in the scope of tax powers of representative bodies of local self-government is revealed. A distinction was made from related concepts in the field of public law regulation - legal personality, subject matter, jurisdiction, management functions. The tax competence of public authorities becomes a specific manifestation of the category of «competence» as a public law phenomenon, being a mandatory attribute of the tax legal personality of public authorities. In terms of content, tax competence consists of a set of legally established powers of the power entity, which act as functional levers of its actions in the plane of the subject of jurisdiction entrusted to it by the state in accordance with the objectives of tax regulation in the field of taxation. The tax powers of public authorities under these conditions are the specific content of the tax competence of the latter.

Improving this area requires knowledge of principles such as the collection, training and analysis of migration statistics in order to develop effective policies.

The place and role of official observers from foreign states and international organizations in elections: the experience of Ukraine and foreign countries

The article states that formation of representative state and local self-governmental authorities is an important stage of state formation. And the legitimacy of both their conduct and the representative public authorities in Ukraine depends on the extent to which it will be carried out within the framework of the election legislation and the extent to which the domestic legislator will provide anti-fraud factors and safeguards against mass violations of various elections.
 National and foreign practice proves that the institution of election monitoring that is represented by various observers who contribute to the conduct of election campaigns on a democratic basis in accordance with the electoral standards developed by the international community, is rather effective in this respect.
 In Ukraine, the status of official observers is granted to: 1) official observers from candidates, parties (organizations of parties) - subjects of the election process, 2) official observers from public organizations which are duly authorized to have official observers in the relevant elections, 3) official observers from foreign states and international organizations who can observe the election process.
 The Electoral Code of Ukraine defines the status of official observers differently, in particular, official observers from foreign states and international organizations are not recognized as subjects of the election process. However, this does not diminish their role in monitoring the electoral process in Ukraine by the legality of the actions of its subjects. The introduction of the institution of official observers from foreign states and international organizations is seen as expression of trust between states and as evidence of the intention of these countries and international organizations to contribute to the democratization of the electoral process in the world.
 The paper reveals the legal nature of official observers from foreign states and international organizations, highlights the standards of legal status of official observers from foreign states and international organizations developed by international organizations, considers national and foreign experience of legal regulation of their status and substantiates provisions on necessity for improvement of national electoral legislation on this basis.

An outlook on current legal status of the employees as the representatives of public authorities.

The purpose of this article is to determine the features of the legal status of employees as representatives of public authorities, taking into account domestic and foreign experience. The main elements of the legal status of employees as representatives of public authorities in Ukraine are considered. It is noted that, as subjects of state power, employees are obliged to have a transparent, clear and unambiguous status in society. Among other things, they must comply in their direct activities with all the necessary norms and principles of domestic and international law, because the professional quality of their work will always be seen as a kind of external face of society. Attention is also focused on the fact that the efficiency of employees is directly related to the level of their self-organization, as well as a number of internal factors. In addition, it emphasizes the importance of civil servants, as well as persons working in public institutions and agencies of proper protection of the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of men and citizens. Such a requirement for employees follows from the norms and principles of both domestic legislation (including the Basic Law of Ukraine and the Constitution of Ukraine) and international legal acts and declarations signed and ratified by Ukraine. Author’s definitions of “legal status”, “civil servant” as well as “public authority” are offered. Examples of successful experience of some developed, mostly Western, countries in building such conditions for the daily functioning of the state system and society as a whole, which managed to create a proper legal status of civil servants as public authorities, which would meet all important requirements today.

Current model of the state executive service in the system of public authorities of Ukraine

The relevance of the problem under study is due to the need for theoretical justification of the place of executive proceedings in the modern legal system of Ukraine and the functions of the state executive service to protect the rights of citizens and legal entities, as well as the interests of the country.

In Ukraine is not yet comprehensive research on state executive service in Ukraine in a mixed system of decision-making, with emphasis on the peculiarities of its reform in the present period and the formulation of the Concept. This determines the relevance of this study, its scientific and practical value

The influence of the level of citizens' trust in public authorities on the application of public marketing in Ukraine

Nowadays there is an active development of trust marketing, which is designed to form long-term relationships between customers and businesses, providing the latter with significant competitive advantages in the consumer market. Awareness of the importance of trust in the commercial sector and maintaining it at a high level allows companies to increase their profits. If a person trusts the company, he is more likely to buy the product from him than from someone he does not trust at all. Equally important is the trust of citizens in public authorities. After all, it appears as a kind of advance in the relationship regarding future activities. A high credit of public confidence in public authorities allows public administrators to implement reforms, make changes in society and innovate as soon as possible. Distrust leads to resistance to change, increases the instability of the state, ultimately increases the cost of time and money to verify information, documents and so on.The scientific article describes the differences between state and public authorities. Thus, it has been determined that the subjects of state power are the legislative, executive and judicial authorities and the subjects of public authority are public authorities and local governments in Ukraine. The interpretation of the concept of "trust" has been covered, the level of trust of Ukrainian citizens to public authorities has been analysed. Also, a number of factors influencing the formation of trust and distrust in public authorities in Ukraine have been identified and analysed. It has been found that corruption, insufficient level of professionalism and moral values of public managers, opacity and lack of accountability of Ukrainian cities contribute to the formation of distrust to the government among the population. It has been established that the factor of citizens' trust in public authorities also influences the successful implementation of public marketing. After all, the greater the credit of trust held by public authorities, the more convincing it will sound for citizens to present those public ideas and decisions that are promoted through the use of public marketing tools.

Рeculiarities of legal regulation of tax authorities of public authorities in Ukraine

The article reveals the peculiarities of the legal regulation of tax powers of public authorities in Ukraine. It is noted that the tax legal personality of the state is a direct consequence of the implementation of the public territorial entity's own tax sovereignty. It is emphasized that one of the main classification criteria for the division of public authorities with tax powers is the functional purpose and nature of the body. On the grounds of functional purpose and the nature of powers in the field of taxation, the investigated bodies are divided into: 1) bodies of general competence (Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, local representative bodies); 2) bodies of special competence with the presence of part of the functions in the field of taxation (Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, State Treasury Service of Ukraine); 3) bodies of special tax competence (State Fiscal Service of Ukraine as a controlling body in the field of taxation). The content and structure of tax powers are considered. It is emphasized that the main distinguishing feature of the ratio of tax competence and tax powers is the possibility of delegating part of the powers, while the competence is not subject to delegation. Based on the analysis of the current legislation of Ukraine, the tax powers of public authorities and local governments are considered. The rights and responsibilities in the tax sphere of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine, the State Treasury Service of Ukraine, local councils are covered. In order to prevent violation of the principle of tax stability in the adoption of laws on taxes and fees, the Law of Ukraine "On the Rules of Procedure of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine" should provide for the implementation of laws defining taxes, fees and their elements. It is the direct duty of the parliament to strictly adhere to the requirement of stability in its interpretation, which is set out in the Tax Code of Ukraine. To bring the Regulation on the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine in terms of tax powers in accordance with the Tax Code of Ukraine, it is necessary to set out subparagraph 39 of paragraph 4 of the Regulation as follows: The Ministry of Finance of Ukraine fees for a period exceeding one budget year, if the amount declared for installment or deferral or the amount of deferred or deferred monetary obligations or tax debt in respect of which payment is deferred is 1 million hryvnias or more; makes a reasoned decision to grant installments or deferrals of monetary obligations or tax debt in respect of national and local taxes and fees, as well as to postpone the payment of deferred or deferred amounts, if the amount of previously granted installments or deferrals of monetary obligations or tax debt was not repaid».

Institutional Determinants of Stressful Situations in Public Authorities of Ukraine

The meaning of the terms «stress» and «stressful situation» in the context of public authorities' professional activity is revealed. The relationship between the categories «environment» and «situation» in terms of factors influencing civil servants' stress tolerance is studied. The definitions of the terms "public authority", «subjects of public authority», and the forms of exercising public authority in Ukraine are presented. The standard and distinctive features of state and municipal forms of public power in Ukraine are determined.

To confirm this, the article presents the results of its survey of civil servants and local government officials in Ukraine to identify internal and external stressors in their work, which affect its effectiveness and efficiency. The obtained results testify to the lack of perfect legislation in public administration in Ukraine and the ignorance of specialists of all institutional norms that regulate public authorities' professional activity. It is proposed to develop unique training programs for civil servants and officials of local governments on the interpretation of changes to regulations and instructions within these documents. It is also necessary to adapt existing vocational training programs for public authorities to the external environment's requirements, directing them to develop appropriate personal qualities. Also, a mechanism should be introduced to monitor the impact of civil servants' professional training on the effectiveness of their professional activities using measurable indicators to adjust such programs and select the most effective ones.
