The Impact

The article offers a methodical approach to determining the level of small business growth in the regions of Ukraine, based on the calculation of the integrated index. Small business is an important component of region’s economy, but its role and importance in socio-economic development vary depending on the heterogeneous industrial development of the regions. There is a need for a comprehensive assessment of the level of small business development to identify growth points and areas of support. In author’s opinion, the indicators of small business development currently used to determine the effectiveness of the implementation of regional programs to support small business do not reflect the impact of small business activities on the regional development at all. The author focuses the reader’s attention on determination of the level of development of small business and its role in the economy of the regions using the method of integrated index. This index is taken into consideration the extensiveness, intensity and social significance of small business. The coefficient of extensiveness is the share of small enterprises in the total number of enterprises in the region; the intensity coefficient is the share of the volume of products (goods, services) sold by small enterprises in the total volume of products (goods, services) sold in the region. The social significance of small business is calculated as the geometric mean of the product of the share of employees in small enterprises in the total number of employees in enterprises of the region and the share of personnel costs of small enterprises in total personnel costs of all enterprises in the region. The calculation of the general index of small business development in the regions is provided in the article. It allows to draw conclusions that small business has the greatest impact on the development of Kherson, Chernivtsi and Kirovohrad regions, and the least - on the development of Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions. The article concludes by outlining prospects for further research. The analysis of indicators of extensiveness, intensity and social significance of small business makes it possible to highlight the problems that hinder its successful growth in the regions and require concentration of efforts for urgent solution.

The purpose of this research is the development of theoretical foundations for the functioning of the mechanism of state support for small business in a decentralized government based on a synergistic approach. The subject of the study: theoretical and methodological foundations for the functioning of the mechanism of state support of small business in the context of synergetics. Research methodology is a set of principles, approaches, general theoretical, special, and interdisciplinary methods of scientific knowledge, namely morphological analysis, comparative analysis, methods of deduction and logical generalization, analysis and synthesis. Functioning of the mechanism of state support for small business is considered on the basis of a synergistic approach. The synergistic approach is one of the most effective methodological bases for the development of modern economics. The article considers the key theoretical provisions for understanding this approach, substantiates the possibility and feasibility of its application in the implementation of this mechanism in modern economic conditions. Results. It is determined that the reform of decentralization of power has led to the creation of institutional problems in the economic mechanism of state support for small business. In the regions and territorial communities, there is no single mechanism to support the development of small business, which causes the inefficiency of this area of public policy. This justifies the relevance of the use of new methodological approaches to the formation of the mechanisms for implementing the state policy of business regulation. The importance of small business for the development of the national economy, ensuring its stability, is substantiated, the main approaches to the essence of entrepreneurship are investigated. Theoretical aspects of the functioning of the mechanism of state support for small business on the basis of traditional and systemic approaches are systematized, their positive aspects and shortcomings are determined. It is substantiated that in the conditions of economic transformations and introduction of the reform of decentralization of power it is expedient to use the synergistic approach in the research of the mechanism of the state support of the small business. It is emphasized that the very synergistic approach is able to study the process of functioning of the mechanism of state support for small business on the basis of evolutionary development and self-organization of complex systems. We propose to consider the mechanism of state support in the conditions of decentralization as a process of self-organization of small business entities and public authorities, which is carried out through their interaction with the meso- and macroenvironment. Conceptual bases of the use of the synergistic approach in the research of the mechanism of the state support for the development of entrepreneurship and its economic levers are developed. It is substantiated that the application of a synergistic approach in the process of formation and application of the mechanism of state support of small business will allow to take into account interdependence of economic processes and phenomena, to investigate the interaction of local authorities and small businesses under decentralization. The use of a synergistic approach as a research method also makes it possible to take into account the dynamics of the state support mechanism. The synergistic methodology in the study of the mechanism of state support for small business allows to take into account the existence of connections and interactions between the components of the mechanism, as well as the integrity and ability to change. Based on a synergistic approach, it becomes possible to ensure the development of small businesses by preventing threats. The next advantage is the ability to take into account the alternative scenarios of small business development of a particular region or territory in a changing socio-economic environment. Consideration of the mechanism of state support as a self-organized system makes it possible to study the patterns of self-organization, which in the future should become the basis for calculating the synergistic effect of the mechanism.
