The article highlights the issues of local self-government development in the conditions of public administration transformation. Attention is drawn to the importance of organizing effective self-government, as it is the local councils of the basic level that are most closely connected with the life of the local population. It is noted that the reform of local self-government was aimed at improving the accessibility and quality of public services for the population. The main reasons that prompted the reform of local self-government are named, namely: imperfection of the administrative-territorial system, limited autonomy of local self-government bodies and weak capacity of territorial communities. The main stages of the reform of the local self-government system and changes in the legal basis for the functioning of local councils are considered. The consequences of changing the legislation for the implementation of their powers by village, settlement and city councils, in particular the establishment of direct inter-budgetary relations between local budgets and the state budget, as well as shortcomings in the legal support of local councils. It is noted that despite the significant delay in amending the Constitution of Ukraine, the norms of which on administrative-territorial organization and local self-government ceased to correspond to the real state of affairs, the legal basis of self-government continued to develop. It is a question of introduction of the state support of local government and creation of institute of elders. It is noted that the regulatory and legal support of decentralization was mostly related to budgetary relations and was aimed at strengthening the economic capacity of territorial communities. It is established that as a result of the administrative-territorial reform the number of councils at the primary and subregional levels has significantly decreased, which has exacerbated the issue of separation of powers between councils at different levels and between councils and local administrations. Proposals were made to identify areas for further improvement of the legal framework of local self-government and delimitation of powers of local councils on the principles of subsidiarity.

The question of Palestine (and the city of Jerusalem) is a core issue that remains at the centre of the Muslim mind in our time. This is because most Muslims feel that the Zionist Movement created the State of Israel in Palestine after World War II by depriving the local population of their fundamental right to exist in their ancestral homeland. The global Zionist Movement conspired, resorted to terrorist tactics and executed an ethnic cleansing campaign to create the State of Israel. The Zionists first secured the support of British politicians and then the American leaders in favour of their search for an exclusive Jewish state covering the entirety of the former British Mandate of Palestine. Although the Palestinians – like Muslims in various parts of the world – quickly developed a national consciousness in the inter-war period and tried to protect their fundamental rights, they were no match for the Zionists who had already secured the support of major powers of the globe (e.g. Britain and the US). Later, Israel managed to obtain UN membership in its third attempt with the commitment to allow all Palestinians to return to their ancestral home. But in practice, Israel has ignored all UN resolutions regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Israel has gradually developed a legal framework to deny the citizenship rights of the original population of Palestine and continues to build new Jewish settlements by demolishing Palestinian homes. While the Palestinians continue to suffer under Israeli repression, the OIC (Organization of Islamic Cooperation) and most Muslim governments have largely abandoned the Palestinian cause of liberation. This, in turn, frustrates much of the Muslim youth around the world – fuelling fundamentalism and extremism.

The author analyzes the economic documentation sent by the Nizhyn governors to the Malorossiyskyi Prykaz in the 1650s and 1670s. The excerpts published in the Acts relating to the History of Southern and Western Russia. This source the author used to show the nature of the interaction between the Nizhyn Voivodship and the government, to identify the main issues voivode had to report on and the tasks he had to solve, as well as to consider the situation of the Russian military contingent in Nizhyn.The author notes that the royal pledges led by the voivods appeared in Chernihiv, Nizhyn, Pereyaslav and other Ukrainian cities in the late 1650s. The names of the Nizhyn voivods, who served in the 1650-1670s, were identified, and the author described their activities. She found out that the voivode had to build a fortress in the city to defend against enemies, manage the affairs of their garrisons, send to Moscow financial statements of expenditures, to issue a sovereign's pay to the archers, to fight against their escape, which was very common, and in addition to monitor on the activities of the local Cossack administration and internal policy in the territories subordinate to them, submit to the king petitioners and petitions, provide information on events in the Ukrainian lands and in the neighboring territories, involve the local population in the work . Under the rule of Ivan Bryukhovetsky, voivode had to collect taxes from inhabitants of the Hetmanate (except for Cossacks and clergy). The author concludes that it was through regular reports that the voivode in Moscow knew about the state of affairs in the Hetmanate region and, following the information received, adjusted their policy towards the Ukrainian lands. Therefore, the voivodship runoff can be considered a valuable source from the history of the hetman's Ukraine itself.

The article examines the assessment and existing methods of the tax burden, directions of its optimiza-tion. One of the main systemic elements of the country's state policy is the tax system as one of the vectors in the direction of economic and social development. The legal basis of the state determines that an economic entity becomes a taxpayer, paying taxes and fees to the state budget system. For effective conduct of activi-ties, organizations need to assess the amount of taxes paid to the budget and determine how much of their own resources they can donate to the state as payment for using its services. For this, it is advisable to use the estimated indicator "tax burden". In addition to organizations, the tax burden is also calculated by the tax authorities to control the activities of taxpayers. It is important for the state to monitor both the direction of movement of tax flows and the fact of their receipt into the country's budget, taking into account the financial and economic capabilities of taxpayers, since tax revenues form a significant part of the federal and consoli-dated budget revenues.

Decentralization Reform

The need for effective, capable self-government inevitably faces the need to change the spatial organization of local governments. In turn, the territorial organization of executive bodies also turned out to be far from optimal. In Ukraine, there have been discussions for many years about the reorganization (reform) of the entire system of public power in the country. But they have mainly always concerned the redistribution of powers in the power triangle at the national level: President - Parliament - Government. Since independence, changes have taken place here many times. However, despite the changes taking place in this redistribution at the national level, people living in specific towns and villages continue to face the same problems. To date, not clear enough mechanisms have been implemented to form effective local self-government and territorial organization of government to ensure the provision of high quality and affordable public services, meet the interests of citizens in all spheres of life in the territory, harmonize the interests of the state and local communities, establishing cooperation between the authorities and local governments. Currently, the second stage of decentralization in Ukraine continues in 2020-2021. The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has identified the need for further reform process, introduction of decentralization in Ukraine as one of the priorities in the state, which will continue the development of local self-government, territorial communities and in general will enable the growth of Ukraine's economic indicators. In this regard, this article is aimed at studying the state of administrative-territorial reform in Ukraine, as well as outlining areas for improving the legal aspect of decentralization reform in Ukraine, as for further development of the legal framework, to continue the reform requires a number of important laws.

Problems and unresolved issues in the field of the Ukrainian political nation consolidation and national minorities rights protection are analysed. The normative legal acts regulating ethno-national relations in Ukraine are analysed. The necessity of reforming the ethno-national legislation, elimination of declarative, contradictory and conflicting norms is proved. Threats caused by separatist manifestations are shown. The main values, guidelines and directions of the Ukrainian state ethno-national policy development are determined. The creation of a legal framework for ethnocultural autonomy in Ukraine will contribute to the formation of an effective system of protection of the rights of citizens belonging to national minorities in Ukraine, which will meet international standards in the field of protection of national minorities. , and will allow to approximate the legislation of Ukraine in the field of protection of the rights of national minorities to the EU law.

However, Vietnam faces a situation where many foreign investors would take advantage of the gaps in the Government’s tax incentive policies to avoid taxes. This has caused many losses and serious state budget deficit. Not only does the state lose a large amount of money which businesses have an obligation to pay, but it also creates a bad precedent, unfairness in tax for businesses. In this article, the author will analyze and assess the state of affairs of the Government’s preferential tax policies and the tax avoidance in the form of transfer pricing in Vietnam by foreign investors. Following after are recommendations to complete the tax incentive policies and prevent tax avoidance in the form of transfer pricing of foreign investors.

Russia is going through a stage of becoming accompanied by complex internal problems. They are associated with the development of a legal framework and reconsidering the new type of economy, the negative impact of global crises and evident challenges in the distribution of the money supply. An active social policy of the state is aimed at the population strata in need of support: pensioners, disabled people, children. But the gap between low-income and rich groups is widening, and the middle stratum as a social component has practically disappeared. This situation suggests the need to search for tools to improve the prosperity of the population. Besides, low-efficiency investment systems of large players in the sector with state participation are registered, which requires the search for additional sources of investment and ways of their rational use with proper control. Which, in its turn, will reset the load from the state budget.
