The modern world is characterized by rapid changes towards democracy, which have a positive impact on the humanitarian component of society. Education reforms are affected by many negative factors, including unstable political and economic situation in the country, and 2020 introduced the concept of “pandemic learning” into the educational process, which certainly did not improve the overall situation. However, despite these problems in the field of education, the issue of involvement of children with mental and physical disabilities into the educational environment of Ukraine remains extremely important. This trend of integration of children with mental and physical disabilities into the educational environment is relevant around the world, but in Ukraine attention has been paid and appropriate steps has been taken to improve the critical educational situation for this category of children only in the last few years. Also, the Association Agreement with the EU, which came into force in 2017, prompted the government to take certain steps for political, economic, social and cultural reforming of all spheres of life that affect the quality of provision and receipt of educational services.

Analysis of current legislation and scientific literature allows us to conclude that inclusive education in Ukraine opens up great opportunities for children/people with special educational needs, but is not explored fully. These sources emphasize that creation of optimal conditions for qualitative education for children with mental and physical disabilities has its social, economic and psychological characteristics and problems, which are quite complex and require further research and development. That is why there is a need to work systematically and purposefully on introduction of inclusive process in educational institutions to implement the right to education of every citizen of Ukraine. Paper main body. The article considers specific features of introduction of inclusive education in Ukraine in the context of European integration. Dynamics of implementation of inclusive education in the context of education system reform is analyzed. Components of preparation to implementation of the inclusion process both for teachers and for children with special educational needs and main problems of the educational environment were considered.

The coronavirus pandemic has spread across the planet, not only affecting the health of the population and the world’s medical system but also disrupting the global information space, economy and all other spheres of human life. Both domestic and foreign policies of states are changing. Success in overcoming the pandemic and its economic consequences is affecting security and polarization within societies. The pandemic leads to enhancing public power and strengthening nationalism, the intensification of rivalry between great powers, and strategic disunity. In this context, the paper objective is to consider authoritarian and democratic approaches to solving the problems of the current crisis. Recent research and publications analysis. The general scientific and scientific-journalistic literature has not yet created a generalized work on the socio-economic and political consequences caused by the crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, some views caused by global crises are noted in the studies of J. Vynokurov, L. Kolinets, O. Nevmerzhytska, A. Petryk, and others. Ukrainian and foreign philosophers, political scientists, publicists A. Baumaster, O. Koval, R. Sushchenko, S. Walt, V. Katasonov, K. Mahbubani, J. Nai, Y. N. Harari expressed their reflections on the future development of the world after the pandemic. The famous American thinker F. Fukuyama notes that after a long crisis, the world will eventually be renewed and democracy will be strengthened.Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. The history of mankind is inseparable from the accompanying constant crises that have shaken societies and states. The peculiarity of modern crises is their unpredictability and globality. Due to the lack of effective crisis prevention mechanisms, inefficient functioning of international financial institutions, the presence of mass financial speculation and the virtualization of the world economy, favourable conditions are created for the spread and generation of crisis phenomena in the world. So far, there is no generally accepted view of the likely consequences of crises for the world’s economies, and thus unpredictable socio-political changes. Paper main body. The Covid-19 pandemic has become the world’s largest global crisis since the Great Depression. Its depth and scale are enormous. As a result, it is capable of surpassing the Great Recession of 2008 – 2009. Thus, only in the second quarter of 2020, the economy of the Eurozone countries fell by more than 12%. There is a record drop in GDP, world trade is declining. The pandemic is projected to increase poverty, with more than half of those in Africa. The peculiarity of the new crisis is not only that it creates unprecedented uncertainty, but also that it destroys entire sectors of the economy, including tourism, transport and even energy.The Coronavirus pandemic can cause significant changes not only in the economic but also in the political, social and cultur","PeriodicalId":405545,"journal":{"name":"Efficiency of public administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134219347","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is important to assess the compliance of the results of the decentralization reform in Ukraine with the population expectations regarding the changes caused by the reform, in particular, the formation of amalgamated territorial communities (ATCs). Attention should be paid to identifying social and economic problems that require further measures to solve them.Recent research and publications analysis. Administrative reforms are continuous in each country and provide for identifying shortcomings and upgrading public administration. Ukrainian scientists proposed a method for assessing the impact of administrative and financial decentralization mechanisms on the social and economic development of regions, districts, cities, and territorial communities. Experts and scientists analyzed the implementation of projects in decentralization, compared Ukrainian and foreign decentralization models.Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. An important task in terms of the future social and economic development of Ukraine is identifying problems that are still unresolved or are due to the process of decentralization of power in Ukraine. The article is to reveal such problems based on the assessment analysis of this process.Paper main body. Decentralization of power is considered one of the most successful reforms in Ukraine implemented after 2014. The success was based on the clarity of intentions announced by the authorities, the interest of communities in obtaining greater resources and powers, as well as their ability to implement their local development initiatives. A network of Administrative Service Centers (ASCs) has been developed in Ukraine, which can be considered an important achievement of the administrative reform. However, 46–63% of respondents noted a deterioration in the following areas: combating corruption in government; care for vulnerable groups (pensioners, disabled persons); medical care; providing jobs, and combating unemployment. The problems of newly created ATCs included: lack of qualified personnel; strengthening political monopolies that control resources in communities; phenomena when some ATC leaders felt permissive in their new status. Although the number of full-time employees in ATC self-government bodies has generally decreased compared to the total number of employees in the bodies of non-integrated settlements, “inflating” of the salaries of officials takes place.The survey in 2020 reflected the people’s opinion that decentralization of power has led to a deterioration in environmental protection management. The analysis showed that the opinions of respondents on the priority of environmental protection tasks differ significantly depending on their level of education. In particular, when people were asked about the powers that should be primarily exercised by local governments, the distribution of answers on “Environmental Protection” was as follows among the educational social group","PeriodicalId":405545,"journal":{"name":"Efficiency of public administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126601178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The effectiveness of local government reform in the decentralization process largely depends on the quality of territorial community management. Territorial formations differ from each other in a number of factors. This requires taking into account these peculiarities and adherence to certain principles when forming the organizational structure of management.Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. An important and new approach in the formation of organizational structures of territorial community management is the use of a set of factors that reflect the characteristics of a particular community, studying the relationship between spending costs on management and the effectiveness of managerial decisions, defining approaches to management in a particular area. Of particular importance in this context is to specify the factors influencing the formation of organizational structures of territorial community management, determining the principles and criteria of management effectiveness, which should be considered when choosing an organizational structure of territorial community management. Paper main body. Decentralization of management involves the provision of quality services to the population of territorial communities. One of the most important tasks in this context is the ability to form effective local governments - to elect the head of the community and the local council, but also to effectively influence them, participate in the process of making complex decisions and feel responsible for the results of joint work.It is advisable to use a systematic approach in the formation of organizational structures for the management of the territorial community. The use of a systematic approach ensures that the specific peculiarities of the territorial community, the needs of management in a particular area and the real ability of managers and professionals to solve problems and make managerial decisions. In particular, it should be borne in mind that the choice of governance structure largely depends on the financial capabilities of the individual territorial community. The analysis of the results of the first half of 2020 showed that the costs of maintaining the administration are very different in different local communities. Based on the results of the analysis, the structure and functions of management are reviewed and, if necessary, a complete restructuring of managerial activities in the local community is carried out. It is important in the process of forming organizational structures of territorial community management to adhere to the proposed principles.

Environmental education and enlightenment in a rapidly changing world should become the goal and essence of new education, a tool to reduce tensions not only between society and the environment but also between peoples, an instrument of peace and mutual understanding. This is the sphere of international cooperation, where the unity of interests of the world community in the self-preservation of world civilization is most noticeable.Recent research and publications analysis. The objective, tasks, principles and philosophical understanding of the importance of environmental education, its essential and substantive characteristics are covered in the works of N.

The choice of our study is due to the contradiction in the need of modern society to take practical action to improve the quality of the environment, the development of an ecologically literate population capable of an ecologically centric approach in relation to nature, and the lack of a systematic approach to this process. A comprehensive approach to the organization of training of all subjects of environmental education will ensure that the population receives the greatest amount of necessary environmental knowledge and skills, regardless of age and professional differences.Paper main body. There has been carried out the analysis of the essence of such concepts as “environmental education” and “environmental enlightenment”. The principles, goals, objectives and structure of environmental education are substantiated. The necessity for systematic organization of continuous environmental education and enlightenment for sustainable development is proved. The role of environmental education and environmental enlightenment in the system of public administration is determined. Elements of the system of environmental education are given, which also include environmental enlightenment and self-education.Conclusions of the research and prospects for further studies.

Changes in the socio-economic development of the country, caused by geopolitical, technological, economic and social factors, create new challenges for the competition policy of the state. The COVID-19 pandemic added to this list, significantly affecting the activities of the business environment, households, and the world economy in general. The development of an effective competition environment in commodity markets is a prerequisite for the restoration of stable economic growth on the basis of innovation and investment development.In this regard, there is a need to rethink the mechanism and set of instruments of competition policy on their adequacy to the current situation, their effectiveness and ability to ensure the achievement of goals and objectives. Nowadays, the emphasis of competition policy is changing, caused by changes in the competition environment and the objectives of economic policy in general.

In the context of modern transformation processes, the modernization of the public administration system becomes important, in particular in the application of qualitatively new strategic approaches, mechanisms and tools in the social sphere. The current priority of public policy implementation at both the national and regional (local) levels is to meet the social needs of the most vulnerable and socially vulnerable categories of citizens. Current trends in public administration practices in developed countries indicate the need for effective intersectoral partnership in the system of public management of the social sphere, which provides for effective participation in this process, both relevant government institutions and civil society actors.Recent research and publications analysis.

Based on the fact that the state level is of decisive and integrated importance in the implementation of the social function, the social responsibility is borne primarily by the state through the system of legislative and executive bodies. In view of this, it is the state that has the power to establish fair and transparent rules for the activities of various actors, including civil institutions, through the functioning of an effective system of control that would ensure their implementation.Researchers and experts point out the inconsistency of the current state policy of social development in Ukraine neither with the challenges formed under the influence of globalization processes and national conditions, nor with European standards for the introduction of this area of public administration.The system of social services provided by the current legislation is largely inconsistent with the current system of budget funding, which is mostly based on a formal approach that does not take into account the real need for material security of vulnerable groups and the real cost of benefits and services.Among the areas set out in the draft of the new National Strategy for Civil Society Development in Ukraine for 2021-2026, emphasis is placed on improving approaches to state support for civil society organizations and strengthening cooperation between them and the executive branch.

Aspects of leadership have been studied throughout the entire history of humanity, and since the 80s of the 20th century it has become a subject of systematic research of various sciences, scientific investigations of ways and means of development of leadership qualities of a person have been carried out [25, p. 73]. The phenomenon of leadership is extremely rich in its manifestations and functions and depends on historical epochs, types of political systems, specific situation, peculiarities of leaders and their constituents and other factors [25, p. 76].Accordingly, during the critical period in the development of the Ukrainian society, the old principles of governance lose their efficiency and stop to work. It becomes difficult to exercise leadership in a world where creativity is valued more than diligence, indicating a change in the nature of the leadership phenomenon. Taking into account that Ukraine is currently in a zone of turbulence, there is an urgent need to improve approaches to human resource management in the system of public authorities. Therefore, aspects of enhancing the effectiveness of management and leadership in the public service are still gaining relevance in further research.In our publication we will focus on our own thoughts on the development of leadership in general and leadership in public service on the basis of analysis of the source base of scientific research on leadership.Recent research and publications analysis shows that the problem of leadership in public administration is constantly in the sight of the scientists who are trying to grasp all edges of the leadership phenomenon.

Kolodiy presented her vision of the essence of the phenomenon of nation and national identity. In the collective monograph of scientists of the Institute of State and Law named after V. Koretsky presents an analysis of the specifics of the identity of the population of certain regions of Ukraine, proposals for effective mechanisms for its integration into the Ukrainian common national identity. Distinctive narratives of national identity that exist in Ukraine have been the subject of research by American political scientist K. Korostelina. British / Ukrainian researcher T. Kuzio addressed the problem of the interaction of different identity options and democratization processes in Ukraine in the post-Soviet period. In their reflections, these authors offered, in particular, the different visions of the share of political, ethnic and cultural components of national identity, the dynamics of their interaction in the process of national formation of modern Ukraine. Of particular note are the publications of Yu. Ruban, who pointed out, also in the Ukrainian context, the close interdependence between democratic institutions and national identity.Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. The relationship between the processes of formation of modern Ukrainian national identity and democratic values as its important and necessary component, democratic institutions, in particular, electoral and potential ways ","PeriodicalId":405545,"journal":{"name":"Efficiency of public administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125634888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
