Development of the Organisational and Legal Mechanism of State Control of Local Self- Government in Ensuring the Territorial Integrity of Ukraine

Abstract

In the context of modernising Ukrainian statehood, it is essential to develop elements of civil society. Accordingly, there is a need to develop new theoretical and practical approaches to control the activities of local selfgovernment. The study aims to identify the mechanism of the State's control over local self-government in the organisational and legal aspects through comparativelegal, formal-legal, legal modelling and statistical methods. The study concludes that an effective public administration system, including state control, should be completed to implement political, social, cultural, economic, and other priorities of society's development. The study concludes that the existing tasks of reforming the territorial basis of local self-government in Ukraine have been largely resolved. Nevertheless, there is a need to improve the legal regulation and organisational arrangement of the territorial basis of local self-government under the control of the state for its further development.
