INSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES OF FORMATION OF PUBLIC CONTROL MECHANISMS IN THE ACTIVITIES OF STATE AUTHORITY BODIES

Abstract

The target orientation of the study of the problem of public control is determined by the need to form the theoretical and methodological foundations of public administration in the context of the modern paradigm of social development – the systemic reboot of power and, accordingly, the forms and methods of public control. The increasing complexity and dynamism of the political changes taking place in Ukraine, the influence of the external environment, which increases the level of competition in the markets of goods, services, capital and labor, require efforts to create an effective state mechanism for development, analysis, implementation, and control. The success of public administration is determined by the intensity of application of the latest approaches and methods of analysis, planning and control of public administration activities, as well as organizational structures and information systems. In modern conditions, the essence and content of public control is changing, which requires a fundamentally new approach to the implementation of functions, powers of both general and special competence. It has been proven that the implementation of public control is one of the necessary conditions for the establishment of a democratic, legal state and the development of civil society in accordance with European values. The article focuses on forms of public control and features of modern scientific approaches to the rationalization of public control mechanisms. It has been established that public control is an integrative concept that combines state, public, non-governmental, civil, political and other forms of controlling influence on the system of social relations. It is proposed to define the mission of public control in the context of the unwavering provision by the authorities of the constitutional rights and duties of citizens, the powers of management institutions, and the implementation of the constitutional principles of the functioning of the state. The expediency of introducing special mechanisms for ensuring public control is considered, both in the system of a stable state of the system of public administration, and in special conditions, in particular, in the conditions of martial law.
