A wide range of issues related to the peculiarities of public relations organization, taking into account domestic and foreign experience, is covered.

It is substantiated that in the institutional sense, the greatest interest is the classification, depending on the scope of distribution. The public, when communicating with government, through certain communication tools, is called the external form of communication. The external forms of the communicative influence of civil society on state policy help them convey to the state authorities the necessary information about their thoughts, needs, requests, etc. Of course, such information should be constantly updated and accurate. All non-governmental organizations should maintain friendly relations with state organizations and prevent any misinformation of the latter. At the same time, informatization of public administration contains both positive potential and difficulties and contradictions, neglection which, as practice shows, turns negative result. To date, they are insufficiently developed and require scientific comprehension and substantiation, in particular, the issue of organizational, regulatory and legal support for the implementation and implementation of modern marketing tools and management in public administration. Concerning the prospects for further research on the concept of "the form of communicative influence of civil society on state policy", they consist in streamlining its conceptual apparatus as the basis for improving its system, since incomplete and inaccurate information becomes, as a result, the cause of many problems in the system of reforming public administration .

In the context of the implementation of the policy of democratization in the field of public administration, advertising communicology plays a strategic role. Under advertising communicology it’s necessary to understand “coded in sounds, colors, texts”, addressed message to citizens as potential consumers of public-management services, and the answer to it. Advertising communicology in the sphere of public administration forms certain social stereotypes, standards and values of the implementation of state policy, ensuring appropriate socio-cultural transformation in society. Technologically, it is introduced with one goal - to achieve the desired reaction of the public, which responds to the message, from the part of state authorities. In this respect it is said that advertising communicology, including the design of advertising plans, should be based on the organization of a clearly structured process of convincing of the public in the democratization of the activities of public authorities.

The article is devoted to the study of conceptual foundations of the Agile management, the need and prospects for implementing its methods in the sphere of public authorities. Systemic shortcomings of traditional governance in public authorities hinder the effective, prompt solution of important tasks of local socio-economic development and the country as a whole, and do not respond quickly to changes in the external environment. Now, during the period of active transformation of social, economic, political systems caused by the COVID 19 pandemic, the speed and quality of digitalization of all processes play a significant role. In the future, such changes will only deepen, covering all areas of socio-economic relations. Emphasis is placed on the processes of reforming the sphere of public administration and local self-government, in particular in terms of digitalization of public administration elements. The analysis of preconditions of active use of flexible methods of management in the public sphere is carried out. The introduction of the Agile technologies to project-oriented structures of public authorities is argued. The essence and practical aspects of effective application of Scrum methodology are considered, and the scheme of its introduction to work of bodies of regional management and local government is offered. The article analyzes the experience of practical application of the Agile approach in the public sector in some countries of the world (such as Great Britain, USA, Australia) and defines the basis for further «State Agile» development in Ukraine. The relevance of further the Agile approach popularization in public administration is confirmed by the need for changes in public-management relations, and prospects for the public digitalization in the following areas such as: development and implementation of a strategy for digital transformation of regions; implementations of digital solutions for increasing the public authorities' efficiency; ensuring electronic interaction between national, regional and local registries; digital democracy development, and so on.

Problem setting. The system of public administration is a complex set of related elements and entities that interact with each other, so the manifestation of negative corruption minimizes the possibility of achieving positive results in the process of these communications. Special attention should be paid to the functioning of the customs system, which is an important part of the national economy of Ukraine. In this area, corruption abuses are extremely pronounced, given the peculiarities of the customs industry. This problem is acute and urgent, as its existence causes the progression of those negative phenomena that are currently present in the customs system of Ukraine and reduce the effectiveness of public administration in general.Recent research and publications analysis. The issue of corruption in the context of public administration is the subject of research by many scientists: V. Averyanov, O. Antonova, V. Bashtannyk, Y. Bytyak, I. Borodin, A. Vasyliev, I. Golosnichenko, E. Dodin, L. Koval, V. Kolpakov, A. Komzyuk, N. Lypovska, V. Olefir, O. Ostapenko, I. Pakhomov, O. Petrenko, S. Seryogin, I. Khozhylo, V. Shamray, H. Yarmaki etc. Given the wide range of researchers who study the specifics of corruption in the context of public administration, it is worth noting the significant gaps in the assessment of this issue from a sectoral perspective. In particular, it should be noted the great need to study corruption in customs and find ways to minimize this shameful phenomenon in modern conditions.Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problem. The need to analyze corruption processes in the customs authorities and substantiate offers for anti-corruption actions in the field of public administration led to the choice of the topic of the article.Paper main body. Corruption in the general sense can be defined as the illegal activity of persons called to perform the functions of the state, in the form of misuse of their powers in order to obtain benefits by increasing their material wealth, obtaining illegal services or benefits.Global trends indicate the presence of corruption in all countries, so this issue is a priority in solving all spheres of life, both developed and developing countries. In particular, public administration of European countries in the political, informational, institutional and legal context is aimed at combating corruption. To this end, there are such institutions common to EU countries as Greco, the Venice Commission, Olaf, Eurojust, Europol and others. At the interstate level, they coordinate and provide information and analytical support for anti-corruption measures, develop common legal standards in the form of community regulations.In the field of public administration, there is a sufficient legal resource on the basis of which it is possible to ensure anti-corruption policy in the state and, in particular, in the customs sphere. However, the customs system is characterized by a wide range of unresolved issues related to corruption abuses. Accordingly, there is a need to develop offers for overcoming and preventing corruption: development and implementation in the practice of customs authorities of methodological recommendations relating to their employees and aimed at resolving conflicts related to corruption; observance by customs officers of relevant ethical norms, which must harmonize with anti-corruption activities; effective application of responsibility to those guilty of corruption and comprehensive implementation of measures aimed at combating corruption; clear identification of those responsible for corruption in areas where there is a high risk of such abuses; regulation of procedures aimed at preventing corruption of customs officers in the performance of their official duties.Anti-corruption in customs authorities in the context of ensuring the effectiveness of public administration should include the implementation of the following measures: development of conceptual foundations of anti-corruption policy in the customs sphere; adopt a Code of Ethics for Customs Officers in accordance with the needs of anti-corruption policy; effective implementation of the principle of equality before the law in the context of reducing corruption; ensuring equal responsibility for corrupt actions not only for individuals but also for legal entities; ensure the absence of immunity from corrupt practices for officials, including senior executives; delimit the powers of bodies engaged in anti-corruption activities; to intensify the public to combat corruption; wide informing of the public about cases of corruption in customs bodies.Conclusions of the research and prospects for further studies. The problem of corruption in public authorities is a long-standing and painful issue in Ukraine. This problem is especially acute in the activities of customs authorities, as their activities are directly related to foreign economic activity, significant flows of goods and flows of financial resources across the customs border of the state. In turn, this is a direct threat to the country’s national security. Given the fact that Ukraine ranks relatively low in global rankings on the existence of corruption abuses, it is necessary to take decisive measures to reduce the manifestations of this phenomenon, in particular, in the customs authorities.

Information technology (IT) is often less emphasized in coursework related to public administration education, despite the growing need for technological capabilities in those joining the public sector workforce. This coupled with a lesser emphasis on e-government/IT skills by accreditation standards adds to the widening gap between theory and practice in the field. This study examines the emphasis placed on e-government/IT concepts in Master of Public Administration (MPA) and Master of Public Policy (MPP) programs, either through complete course offerings or through related courses such as public management, strategic planning, performance measurement and organization theory. Based on a content analysis of their syllabi, the paper analyzes the extent to which the IT/e-government courses in MPA/Master of Public Policy programs address the Network of Schools of Public Policy, Affairs, and Administration competency standards, and further discuss the orientation of the courses with two of the competencies: management and policy. Specifically, are e-government/IT courses more management-oriented or policy-oriented? Do public management, strategic planning, performance measurement, and organization theory courses address IT concerns?

Problem setting. In the context of modern transformation processes, the modernization of the public administration system becomes important, in particular in the application of qualitatively new strategic approaches, mechanisms and tools in the social sphere. The current priority of public policy implementation at both the national and regional (local) levels is to meet the social needs of the most vulnerable and socially vulnerable categories of citizens. Current trends in public administration practices in developed countries indicate the need for effective intersectoral partnership in the system of public management of the social sphere, which provides for effective participation in this process, both relevant government institutions and civil society actors.Recent research and publications analysis. Problems of public management of the social sphere, public administration influence on social processes are characterized by considerable attention among both foreign and Ukrainian researchers. Highlighting previously unsettled parts of the general problems. Despite significant scientific interest, the issues of substantiation of the role of decentralization in the formation of the principles of qualitative renewal of the content of the public administration system in the social sphere, the influence of state institutions on social processes, identification of trends and main directions of decentralization on the formation of strategy and modernization of public administration social sphere, etc.Paper main body. Based on the fact that the state level is of decisive and integrated importance in the implementation of the social function, the social responsibility is borne primarily by the state through the system of legislative and executive bodies. In view of this, it is the state that has the power to establish fair and transparent rules for the activities of various actors, including civil institutions, through the functioning of an effective system of control that would ensure their implementation.Researchers and experts point out the inconsistency of the current state policy of social development in Ukraine neither with the challenges formed under the influence of globalization processes and national conditions, nor with European standards for the introduction of this area of public administration.The system of social services provided by the current legislation is largely inconsistent with the current system of budget funding, which is mostly based on a formal approach that does not take into account the real need for material security of vulnerable groups and the real cost of benefits and services.Among the areas set out in the draft of the new National Strategy for Civil Society Development in Ukraine for 2021-2026, emphasis is placed on improving approaches to state support for civil society organizations and strengthening cooperation between them and the executive branch. In particular, one of the main tasks of the Strategy is to expand the mechanisms of support of civil society organizations by the state, as well as to increase the order of services from such organizations.Conclusions of the research and prospects for further studies. Processes of modernization of public administration in the social sphere should include the following key areas: regulatory (provides for the completeness and integrity of regulatory standards for the implementation of sectoral / functional policies and guarantees of social rights); organizational and institutional (consists in improving the institutional support of public management of the social sphere); functional-instrumental (provides for ensuring the integrity of the organizational-functional structure; effective coordination of the functioning of institutions); financial and economic (is to optimize the financial mechanisms for the implementation of tasks of social development and functioning of the social sphere); infrastructural (provides for the modernization of the social services system through the state's demonopolization of the social services market); resource (provides for the development and integration of different types of resource provision).
