This chapter reviews the role of think tanks in policy making. Like most modern democracies, Ireland relies on a range of sources to influence the choices and designs of public policy. Apart from political and administrative influences, a broad variety of civil society, academic and private sector actors seek to access, influence, advise, inform and sometimes embarrass those in power. The chapter focuses on ‘think tanks’, defining them, reviewing international experience, examining different types and considering the complex issue of assessing think tank influence. It maps out Ireland’s limited think tank landscape and examines recent developments. Think tanks’ influence on Irish policymaking is assessed across a number of indicators.

The article states that the existing changes in the Ukrainian society, both in economic and political spheres, influence the algorithm of formation of new relations between the state, its institutions and civil society. It is underlined that the day-to-day interaction of the authorities and the society plays the role of the key to the political stability and development of each state since the existing problems of the development of the Ukraine cannot be solved without the support of the civil society. Displayed obstacle also applies to civil society institutions. A system analysis of the role of civil society institutions in the process of preventing corruption in state and local self-government bodies has been carried out with the help of a number of doctrinal, theoretical and specific practical problems resolving. It is pointed out that the expediency of the problem of assimilation of civil society institutions in the realm of the subjects of corruption prevention is substantiated by a number of factors, the main among which is the low effectiveness of the modern methods of corruption offenses counteraction, evidenced by the persistent increase in the number of corruption episodes. This task is impossible without actualization of the national legal system. It is noted that the current condition of the legal doctrine, in the context of the study of determinants that cause inappropriate level of effectiveness of day-to-day activity of civil society institutions, is characterized by considerable invariance and, at times, contradictory concepts. It has been found that in order to form a systematic and effective mechanism for implementation of progressive international experience in the professional activity of civil society institutions there is a need to structure the existing concepts in the administrative-legal dimension of the organization of their activity that will provide actual methods to outline ways of solving these tasks in the format that have already been tried by the international community.

Purpose: Determination of possible ways to increase the effectiveness of interaction between civil society institutions and public administration subjects in Ukraine through the use of international experience; determination of a unified concept of management humanization and democratization and proposal of specific recommendations for reforming the existing public administration system in Ukraine. Methodology: General and specific methods of scientific knowledge were applied during the research: a system analysis method, a dialectical method, a formal-logical method, a structural-functional method, and empirical methods. Result: The authors concluded that there is poor interaction between the public administration subjects and the civil society institutions in Ukraine. In order to increase the positive effect of introducing new forms of civil participation in public administration, it is important to popularize citizens’ e-participation in public administration. Free access to the electronic reflection of activities of any public administration subject allows simplifying public participation in making specific decisions. Applications: The results of the research are believed to be interesting and useful for domestic legislators and public administration subjects at actualization of tendencies to administration democratization and humanization. Novelty/Originality: The results are obtained independently and original (no analogues or incorrect borrowings). The research subject is considered in Ukraine for the first time and seems to be prospective for further development.

The article is devoted to current issues of democratic progress of Ukraine within the framework of the constitu-tional and legal provision of direct government by the people. Some aspects of the civil society formation are also considered. The reasons which do not allow Ukraine to be identified as a consolidated democracy in the light of international experience have been analyzed.The article analyzes the difficulties faced by Ukraine in the process of democratic transformation. Democratic state is a state based on the theory of popular sovereignty and the recognition of the people as the only source of power, the consistent guarantee of human and civil rights and freedoms, ensuring their equality, real participation in the management of the affairs of society and the state.Despite the existence of formal institutions of democracy and government by the people, the Ukrainian democ-racy shouldn’t be overestimated, paying particular attention to the essential aspects. Ukraine cannot be considered as consolidated democracy for all indicators. Democratic progress is considered slow, as corruption and a limited field of public initiative stand in the way.Currently, the problem of ensuring a genuine effect for the decisions of the all-Ukrainian referendum is an overdue issue. It is urgent to solve another problem in the sphere of direct democracy, namely the legislative settlement of the issue of local referendums, which have been actually impossible for the last eight and a half years. The adoption of this law is of paramount importance to our society – it can reduce social tensions and change the protest area – from ineffective demonstrations to productive and constructive voting.In terms of sustainable, consolidated democracies, Ukraine still remains an electoral, that is, unstable country. And for its final establishment, transformation into a consolidated one a great amount of time is still needed.

The efficiency and expediency of their application are clarified in view of the positive international experience in the imple-mentation of control functions of civil society over the activities of the police. Taking into account the international experience of assessing the quality of police services, effective criteria for a comprehensive assessment of service activities of the National Police have been proposed, which are divided into four blocks.
