Abstract
The article deals with the problems of decentralization of power in Ukraine and certain foreign countries. Positive and negative moments of economic and social development of regions after the consolidation of territorial communities are considered. The state social standards that are considered in the programs of economic and social development are analyzed.
The purpose of article is to study how the processes for decentralization of power, finances, etc. are run under conditions of financial, economical and political crisis that take place in Ukraine and countries of Europe.
The decentralization of power for Ukraine was a call of the times in the 90-ies of the XX century. And in the XXI century the decentralization of power hides the aspiration of powerful subjects to receive more power, to obtain easier access to state funds. Declaring the interests of territorial communities, as well as the aspiration for solution of problems, being common with neighboring communities as the purpose of decentralization is only the shielding what Ukrainians do not want to hear, what cannot be announced as this will contradict to course of Ukraine to European integration, will contradict to the struggle against corruption, announced in the state.
Taking into consideration the abovementioned facts, Ukraine has all prerequisites and conditions for successful decentralization. At the same time, the real situation and delay of appropriate processes in time testifies to the fact that not the prerequisites for decentralization, fixed at the legislative level, are of larger importance in our state but their practical implementation
We think that the prerequisites for performance of successful decentralization are the improvement in managerial efficiency of local self-government (these authorities shall be capable and interested in taking decisions that in fact may be fulfilled); preparation and involvement of highly skilled staff; cooperation between public authorities at all levels pursuant to equal conditions; provision with control over taking and fulfilling the decisions by self-governments.
Summing up the abovementioned, we will mention the following. The decentralization of power for Ukraine was a call of the times in the 90-ies of the XX century. And in the XXI century the decentralization of power hides the aspiration of powerful subjects to receive more power, to obtain easier access to state funds. Declaring the interests of territorial communities, as well as the aspiration for solution of problems, being common with neighboring communities as the purpose of decentralization is only the shielding what Ukrainians do not want to hear, what cannot be announced as this will contradict to course of Ukraine to European integration, will contradict to the struggle against corruption, announced in the state. Besides, we think that the steps in reformation for local level of power under crisis conditions are very untimely as this may provoke the ungovernability of certain territorial communities.
