“…According to Digdowiseiso (2022), the negative impact of fiscal decentralization on economic growth should not be interpreted as supporting centralized systems of public administration. The effectiveness of fiscal decentralization in relation to growth should be assessed from the perspective of institutions (Digdowiseiso, 2022). Erlingsson (2022) recommended that a research programme needs to be developed in Sweden that will systematically analyse the ways in which the political system distributes responsibilities between levels of government and how this affects trust and satisfaction at the local, regional and central levels.…”

“…Teremetskyi et al (2021) indicate that the priority goal in this context is to promote bottom-up regional development by giving subnational governments more freedom in identifying programmes that match the public interest, as well as local and regional development goals. Digdowiseiso (2022) maintains that different institutional conditions for fiscal decentralization can significantly contribute to growth in developing countries. Different types of fiscal authorities have a significant impact on income distribution and ethnic inequality.…”

The objective of the article was to identify and describe the current state of fiscal decentralization in Ukraine, Armenia and Georgia and the problems and achievements of territorial communities. Observation and comparative analysis were the main tools used. The study showed that effective fiscal decentralization of territorial communities requires the implementation of the relevant experience of developing countries that have achieved significant results. Fiscal decentralization, the transfer of taxes and spending powers to lower levels of government has become an important strategy for modern governance in developing countries. Fiscal decentralization is facilitated by a combination of citizens’ struggle to actively participate in the management process and dissatisfaction with the outcomes of the centrally planned economy. It is concluded that adequate decentralization strengthens the organs of local self-government and forces states to be more accountable to their citizens. In this regard, the adequacy and prospects of Sweden’s fiscal decentralization approach were also noted as a model worthy of study.

“…Scientists note (Derhaliuk et al, 2021;Desiatniuk and Marchenko, 2021;Digdowiseiso, 2022) that the current state of economic development is characterized by the intensification of destructive processes caused by the economic crisis, military aggression in the east of the state, the beginnings of command and the administrative system, antagonism of the boundless growth of social needs and disabilities, a significant level of shading. Despite the fact that our country is recognized as a market economy in order to apply for the completion of market transformations, and the successful achievement of the results is not necessary.…”

The main objective of the article was to study the legal and economic aspects of the formation of the budgetary mechanism of the national model of economic development. It is possible to ensure the dynamic processes of economic development of Ukraine only through effective regionalization, which significantly increases the requirements for the formation and use of the financial potential of the regions, which requires the development of strategic priorities for public financial management of the region as a whole. The research methodology involved the use of modern theoretical methods of analysis within the framework of dialectics. As a result of the analysis, the key aspects of the budgetary mechanism of the national model of economic development in Ukraine were characterized. It is concluded that, the study has a number of limitations in conducting a purely theoretical analysis. Further research should be devoted to the examination of digital technologies for the formation of the budget mechanism of the national model of economic development, among other aspects.

“…The top relevance for the present work is how decentralization affects the development of rural territories and their economies. The research in the scientific literature on the topic of decentralization usually concentrates on the impact of this process on accountability, economic freedom, and political and civil liberties [3]; technological innovation and green development efficiency [4]; environmental pollution [5][6][7]; economic growth [8][9][10][11][12][13][14]; government and corruption [15][16][17][18]; regional disparities [19][20][21][22], etc. The research in the scientific literature also concerns the influence of decentralization on social development by decentralizing budget expenditures [23][24][25][26][27].…”

Development of Rural Areas in Ukraine in the Context of Decentralization: An Empirical Study

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Decentralization in Ukraine was actualized due to the inability of the local self-government system to satisfy the needs of the rural population in public services for the comprehensive development of a person, their self-realization, and the protection of their constitutional rights. The purpose of this empirical study is to examine development of rural areas in Ukraine in the context of decentralization. The methodology used was exploratory qualitative in nature and used a multiple case study, wherein data analysis were applied. We have found that the first result of decentralization in 2015–2018 is a slowdown in the decline of the proportion of the rural population, in the rate of decline of the available rural population, and the employment rate of the rural population. Our study refutes the hypothesis that the rural development targets, which were defined at the beginning of decentralization and fixed in the current legislation, have been achieved. Rural development targets have not been achieved, and economic modeling shows that there are no prospects for achieving them in the near future. The research results presented in the paper are of considerable importance for developing economic policy and the social development of rural areas, by addressing the needs of these rural areas.
