Місцеве самоврядування в Україні в умовах воєнного стану

The article analyzes the peculiarities of the functioning of local self-government in the conditions of martial law. It has been found that local self-government in Ukraine is a state-guaranteed right and real ability of a territorial community - residents of a village or a voluntary association of residents of several villages, towns, cities into a rural community - independently or under the responsibility of local self-government bodies and officials of local importance within the limits of the Constitution and laws of Ukraine. It was established that martial law is a special legal regime introduced in Ukraine or in some of its localities in the event of armed aggression or threat of attack, danger to the state independence of Ukraine, its territorial integrity, and provides for the provision of appropriate state authorities, military command, military administrations and to local self-government bodies, the powers necessary to avert the threat, repulse armed aggression and ensure national security, eliminate the threat of danger to the state independence of Ukraine, its territorial integrity, as well as temporary, due to the threat, restriction of the constitutional rights and freedoms of a person and a citizen and the rights and legitimate interests of legal persons with an indication of the period of validity of these restrictions. It is noted that in the territories where martial law has been introduced, in order to ensure the operation of the Constitution and laws of Ukraine, to ensure, together with the military command, the introduction and implementation of measures of the legal regime of martial law, defense, civil protection, public safety and order, protection of critical infrastructure, protection of rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of citizens, temporary state bodies - military administrations - can be formed. It was established that the creation of military administrations does not deprive local self-government bodies of their powers. It is indicated that local self-government in Ukraine demonstrated a significant level of efficiency when functioning under martial law. If it is necessary to solve a number of complex problems at the same time, the effectiveness of interaction between state authorities, the leadership of territorial communities and representatives of public and volunteer organizations remains high, which allows avoiding sharp crises in the process of ensuring the livelihood of communities. Last but not least, this situation is possible thanks to the 2014-2021 reform of power decentralization in Ukraine, which allowed a significant amount of powers and resources to be transferred «to places». Cooperation of local self-government bodies with international organizations is also a positive practice, which allows implementing joint development projects and sharing experience in various fields. It is emphasized that local self-government bodies play a major role in the creation of a state in modern Ukraine.

Poverty in Ukraine: evolution of interpreting and analysis of impact factors

Purpose. The purpose of the article is to analyze the evolution of interpretation of the poverty as a category. In addition, among the aims of the article is analysis of the dynamics of the poverty level in Ukraine and Lviv region as well as determination of the most effective economic factors affecting the poverty level.
 Methodology / approach. An analysis of the importance of the impact of annual growth of Ukraine’s GDP, GDP per capita, unemployment rate, and other possible factors on poverty level was carried out using statistical tools, namely the Pearson’s, Kendall’s, Spearman’s and Fechner’s correlation coefficients. Research methodology is a systematic approach to the study of the phenomenon of poverty using general scientific methods, as well as statistical methods. The questionnaire method was used to interview residents of cities and villages of Lviv region; methods of correlative-regression analysis were used to assess the importance of individual factors on the poverty level in Ukraine. Authors built VAR-model for the optimal analysis of the poverty level in Ukraine and factors of its influence.
 Results. After analyzing the value of the coefficient of determination, the authors concluded that the most significant factors of poverty in Ukraine are GDP per capita, PPP (R2 = 0.50), unemployment rate (R2 = 0.42), interest rates on loans (R2 = 0.21), inequality of income distribution (Gini index) (R2 = 0.20), taxes on income and profits (R2 = 0.15). GDP annual growth rate accounts for more than 64% of changes in poverty level in the second period. The value of the inequality of income distribution measured by the Gini index in the dynamics of the poverty level increases from 3.9% in the second period to 5.2% in the 10th period. In addition, value of the interest rate on loans and NBU’s account rate increase over time, accounting for approximately 10.0% and 2.4% of the variation in the level of poverty, respectively. Thus, level of interest rates is an important factor influencing the dynamics of poverty level in Ukraine.
 Originality / scientific novelty. An analysis of the dynamics of the poverty level in Ukraine was conducted, including a survey of residents of towns and villages in the Lviv region. A direct relationship between the interest rate on loans and the level of poverty has been established. In addition, the direct relationship between the inequality of income distribution and poverty level was confirmed. 
 Practical value / implications. It is proposed to use the correlation coefficients of Pearson, Kendall, Spearman and Fechner to calculate the strength of connection between the poverty level and its economic factors. Authors suggest applying VAR-model for optimal analysis of the poverty level in Ukraine.

Predicting preventive behaviors on Dog-Borne Zoonoses using the Health Belief Model

Due to the risks posed by dog-borne zoonotic diseases, a cross-sectional survey was carried out on: (1) respondents’ socio-demographic characteristics and prior exposure to dog-borne risks; (2) respondents’ knowledge, risk perceptions and preventive behavior towards dog-borne zoonotic diseases; and (3) relationships between respondents’ information exposure, knowledge, risk perceptions, and preventive behavior towards dog-borne zoonotic diseases. Since health behavior is dependent on multiple factors within a social context, this study used the Health Belief Model to achieve the study objectives. A randomly selected sample of 147 residents of the City of Baybay (aged 20-77 years (mean=47.29, SD=13.27)) perceived dog-borne zoonoses to be highly severe types of diseases. Structural equation modelling based on the Health Belief Model showed that dog ownership, perceptions on severity and susceptibility, and perceptions on benefits and barriers directly predicted the likelihood of adopting dog-borne zoonotic disease preventive measures. In addition, there were significant indirect effects of knowledge on dog-borne zoonoses, demographic factors including prior exposure to dog-borne zoonoses, membership of community organizations, and barangay (village) residence zone. Information exposure to dog-borne zoonoses (cues to action) also had a significant indirect effect on behavior. All these denote that the health belief model (HBM) is effective in predicting preventive behaviors on dog-borne zoonotic diseases. However, to maintain these levels of prevention behavior, there is a need for sustained exposure to information on dog-borne zoonoses, and the institutionalization of a community-based dog-borne zoonotic disease prevention initiative.
