Modern Tools of the State Governance Transformation in the Digital Economy Settings

Introduction. Development of civilization at the modern stage depends on the processes of the information technologies development, which get into all spheres of human life. The "early signs" of the information society were first observed in the late 20s, in the technologically advanced countries. However, at that time, the Information Technology Society according to the scholars’ concept had a different structure and trend of development, but even then, the possible transformations of society and the state were not denied. Such processes were criticised due to the concern about the very existence of the human beings, and possibility for them to apply their abilities in a digital society settings. However, the processes, which are analysed here, have not stop, and digital transformation has much intensified in recent years, affecting all spheres of public life including the state governance. In this regard, studying the processes of digital transformation of the state governance seems forward-looking, because its efficiency is ensured by these processes. With regard to the above mentioned, the aim of the study is to evaluate the significance of implementing the state governance transformation within the modern digital economy settings.Materials and Methods. The documents, defining the strategy of the state development in the digital economy settings, were analysed in the article. The research was based on such conventional methods of scientific knowledge as the dialectical and legalistic methods, as well as the methods of analysis, synthesis, induction and deduction.Results. The state governance transformation tools in the digital economy settings have been identified. The importance of the state governance digitalization has been revealed, since, first and foremost, it fosters elimination of the problems referring to, e.g., corruption, statistical data tampering, etc., dealing with the distortion of information. The authors have identified the specifics of the digital state governance, there have been distinguished the main components of digital transformation, and three trends of the state governance development, enabling a quicker transit to the digital methods of governance, have been defined. The conclusion about digital technologies being a quite relevant tool for accelerating the analytical processes in the field of state governance has been made. Digital technologies allow making the more reliable forecasts, based on the bigger data set, they increase the quantity and improve the quality of the services provided.Discussion and Conclusion. The significance of implementing the state governance digital transformation cannot be overestimated, since such transformation influences significantly on the enhancement of the management processes, ensures the efficiency of rendering the state services to the population that contributes, among other things, to solving the socially vital problems. The theoretical and practical conclusions made by the authors can underlie the further research on the processes and tools of the state governance transformation in the digital economy settings
