The purpose of the article, based on the analysis of sources, taking into account the microhistorical approach, to trace the process of final establishment of the Bolshevik totalitarian regime in the Podillia at the and of 1920s – at the beginning of the 1930s through analysis of causes, technologies and consequences. The methodology of the research is based on a combination of general scientific, special-historical and interdisciplinary methods of microhistorical research, taking into account the principles of historicism, systematics, scientificity and verification. The scientific novelty lies in the author's attempt, based on the analysis of a wide representative source base, from the standpoint of a specific microhistorical study, to analyze the process of planting the Bolshevik totalitarian regime in Podillia in the second military-communist assault. Conclusions. An analysis of various sources reflecting the process of planting the Bolshevik totalitarian regime in the village of Melnykivtsi in the Vinnytsia region suggests that the intensification of local authorities to socialize peasant farms in Podillya began in the spring of 1928. If at the beginning of the unification of peasants voluntarily, then with the party taking a course for continuous collectivization, in November 1929, forceful methods of involvement in collectives prevailed. Suppression of the resistance of wealthy peasants was proposed through the expropriation of their property and deportation outside their permanent residence. The response of the Podillia peasantry to the atrocities of the authorities was the intensification of open resistance, as a result of which in the spring of 1930th the Soviet authorities were even overthrown for a short time in some settlements of Podillya. The appearance of J. Stalin's article "Dizziness from Success" was perceived by some peasants as an outspoken criticism by the leader of the violent methods of the local authorities, so as a result of the so-called "bagpipes", by May 1930 almost 1/3 of all members of collective farms left the collectives. . During the second stage of continuous collectivization, which began in September 1930th, the main "argument" that was to persuade the peasants to join the collectives was tax pressure. Influence on the peasantry was carried out through the system of grain procurement. By setting unbearable norms for the delivery of bread for individual farms, the authorities thus forced them to join the collective farms. Forced collectivization, accompanied by the expropriation of wealthy peasants, unbearable grain procurement plans and the forced seizure of food supplies led to mass starvation of part of the Podolsk peasantry in the spring of 1932. As a result of the artificially planned Holodomor of 1932-1933th decreased by more than 1 million people. According to the authorities' plan, the genocide was to finally subdue the Ukrainian peasantry by starvation. By destroying the peasant owners, the Bolshevik government also deliberately and purposefully destroyed the social base of Ukrainian nationalism.

The article reveals the essence of financial decentralization and related concepts defining the financial autonomy of local authorities. The features of the revenue part of local budgets formation in different countries of the world in the conditions of financial decentralization are revealed. A comparison of the main elements of the intergovernmental tax distribu-tion in some unitary countries of Europe has been made. The dynamics of tax revenues to budgets of different lev-els in Ukraine is determined. The distribution of tax revenues between budgets of different levels is presented in the context of financial decentralization in Ukraine. The obtained results of the analysis made it possible to deter-mine that for a successful decentralization reform, local authorities should be given sufficient financial resources to fulfill their responsibilities for solving local problems and ensuring regional development.

One of the main priorities of the development strategy of the Temryuk district until 2030 is advanced social and economic development. The relevance of the work is confirmed by major changes in significant areas of life and activities of the Temryuk Region of the Krasnodar Territory, associated with the construction and direct operation of the Crimean Bridge. This inevitably entails a burden on the coastal areas of the region, but, thanks to the expansion of its transport network, contributes to the development of its socio-economic potential. Geographic information assessment of the potential for socio-economic development of the coastal territory of the Temryuk region allows us to assess the economic and social component of the development of the Temryuk region for the period from 2006 to 2019. The object of the research is the coastal territory of the Temryuk region and the possibilities of its social and economic development. The subject of the research is the use of methods of modern geoinformation technologies to assess the potential for socio-economic development of the coast of the Temryuk region. The purpose of the study is to assess and analyze the potential for socio-economic development of the coastal territories of the Temryuk region of the Krasnodar Territory based on the methods of geoinformation technologies. Research methods include statistical analysis and spatial analysis using GIS.

INTRODUCTION: Schistosomiasis has been described as “one of the most devastating diseases of mankind, second only to malaria in its deleterious effects on the social and economic development of populations in many warm areas of the world.” The disease is worldwide and is probably spreading faster and becoming more intense than the overall research efforts designed to provide the basis for countering it. Moreover, there are indications that the development of water resources and the demands for increasing cultivation and food in developing countries may prevent adequate control of the disease and thus the number of infections are increasing.Our knowledge of the basic biology of the parasites causing the disease is far from adequate. Such knowledge is essential if we are to develop a rational approach to the effective control of human schistosomiasis. The miracidium is the first infective stage in the complex life cycle of schistosomes. The future of the entire life cycle depends on the capacity and ability of this organism to locate and enter a suitable snail host for further development, Little is known about the nervous system of the miracidium of Schistosoma mansoni and of other trematodes. Studies indicate that miracidia contain a well developed and complex nervous system that may aid the larvae in locating and entering a susceptible snail host (Wilson, 1970; Brooker, 1972; Chernin, 1974; Pan, 1980; Mehlhorn, 1988; and Jones, 1987-1988).
