The article reveals the main features of the competence approach in the practice of European public administration. The features of the competence approach in public administration are determined on the basis of analysis of the basic concepts of public administration. In the dynamics of the formation and development of popular theories of interaction between state and local authorities, such as the theory of a free community, community (public) and public and state (the theory of municipal dualism), we can trace a number of characteristic features of a competency approach, which manifests itself both through the general theoretical relations and manifestations, and through the practice of coexistence of public authorities. There is a problem of definition and distribution of public functions as a prerequisite for defining and shaping the competences of public institutions. An important issue in the context of a competent approach is the institutional consolidation of functions in the context of the existence of the basic models of territorial organization of power. In each of the varieties of the Governance concept (Responsive Governance concept, Democratic Governance concept, Good Governance concept), the specifics of the use of competencies are defined. The archetypal symbols in the European public administration are singled out using the analysis of competence in public administration in its main constituents. A brief description of the archetypal aspect of European public administration is given. The main components of competence are shown in connection with the existing archetypal symbols and the characteristic trends of their development. Their connection is shown according to the scheme “the entity component (who?) — the object component (what?) — the administrative component (how?) — the basis (in what environment?)”. Concerning the trends of development of a competence approach in the context of practice and theory of public administration, it is determined that modern concepts of public administration are characterized by shifting the balance between state and public institutions to the sphere of common goals and tasks, and thus responsibility. The joint activity of all subjects of society requires new forms of cooperation, definition of the spheres and subjects of each entity’s activity for effective cooperation, distribution of functions and competences of the entities, formation and consolidation of their status characteristics.

Formulation of the problem. In the early 21st century, the concept of e-government, E-government, emerged in the world. The young independent Ukrainian state, which inherited the archaic governance mechanism, has not stayed away from this global trend. As of today, Ukraine has developed progressive regulatory framework for implementing any of the existing e-government models in the world. Ukraine, in terms of implementation of e-governance, is a young country. There is already some experience in the world practice, there are several basic models of e-government: Anglo-American, European, Asian models. Thus, the choice of topic was determined by the social and scientific relevance of the studied issue, the lack of its theoretical and methodological development. Formulating the purpose of the article. The purpose of the study is the content and principles of e-governance and the state of its implementation in the sphere of public administration of Ukraine. At the time of writing, the author came to the following conclusions. Today, there is no unanimous opinion in the scientific community regarding the definition of "e-governance". On the one hand, e-government is seen as a system of interagency interaction, as a concept of increasing the efficiency and transparency of the activity of public authorities, which should minimize the involvement of the official person. In the process of writing the work, the following definition was formed: e-government is a form of public administration that promotes the efficiency and transparency of the activity of state and local self-government bodies using information and telecommunication technologies to ensure the further development of a democratic society. Also, two additional principles were formulated in the analysis of e-Government principles in accordance with the Government Concept: the partnership principle and the responsibility of the official person. The principle of partnership is to perceive citizens and their associations as equal partners in the decision-making process. The law should specify the degree of responsibility of the official person for non-compliance with the adopted decisions.

The research is devoted to the identification and analysis of the vectors of the evolution of the modern system of ethics of public authority. The first of them arose within the framework of the Weber paradigm, which consists in the codification of the norms of ethics of public authorities, which is largely anti-corruption. The second vector is associated with the introduction of the New Public Management paradigm and consists in reorienting the ethics of public authority and the personality of a civil servant to the service-management concept of public administration. The third vector emerged in line with the "Good Governance" paradigm. It focuses the ethical system of public authority on cooperation with all participants of the socio-political field and inclusiveness. In the context of the digitalization of the socio-political space, the Good Governance paradigm has begun a rapid evolution into the Digital Era Governance paradigm. Under these conditions, the public authorities faced an urgent need to modernize their ethical system, the need for its dynamic adaptation to rapidly changing technological realities and faced the challenges of a new ethics.

Recreation And Tourism

The article considers the issues of further development of the conceptual apparatus of such a direction as recreation and tourism and the question of determining the various directions and components of recreation and tourism economy. The purpose of this work is to identify the main components of recreational and tourist activity as an integral part of the inter-sectoral complex. It is stressed that tourism activity can be viewed from the standpoint of the economy, because it has all the features of the economy, although this approach is not widespread. It is also possible to study the recreation and tourism sector as a type of economic activity. Recreational and tourist activity is considered as a service market, both as a social system and as an economic system. It was emphasized that in geography and regional economy, recreational and tourist activity is considered as an inter-sectoral complex. A pivotal problem is the definition of objects and entities in systemic relations, where, depending on the nature of the system, tourists can act as objects and subjects. It was established that the formation of the subject area of recreational and tourist activity is based on geographical concepts, including the concept of «touristdestination», the concept of territorial organization of the population and economy, the concept of territorial recreational systems. The position of geographers in the development of the subject area of tourism enhances resource orientation of tourism activity; we note that the resource is both population and tourist destinations. In the article we considered the Ukrainian taxonomy of types of economic activities, which are directly involved in tourism and recreation. It is determined that tourism and recreation sector occupy a special place in the sphere of services. In essence, tourist services are multi–component, and the tourist product itself combines the result of the activities of enterprises that carry out completely different activities. The schematically structured recreation and tourism complex by types of activities indicates the formation of areas of economic activity and industry directly related to recreation and tourism, such as mass recreation of the population – unorganized and organized, and tourism, the sphere of recreation. Thus, the representation ofrecreation and tourism activity as an inter-branch complex offers new possibilities for forecasting its development and formation of new directions of use of recreational and tourist resources.

In the context of the development of home public administration, the implementation of research in terms of providing a meaningful description of the principles of the rule of law and legality in order to comply with them and ensure the activities of public authorities is becoming relevant. Therefore, the purpose of the scientific article is to implement a terminological analysis of the principles of the rule of law and legality in the activities of public administration, as an important condition for the development of public administration. The article considers terminological issues related to the definition of the essence of the concepts «rule of law», «legality», «public administration», by analyzing scientific papers and legal documents. Particular attention is paid to the definitions contained in the norms of international and European acts concerning the definition of the content of the principles of the rule of law and legality, which allowed distinguishing the relevant international and European understanding of the conceptual foundations of these concepts. It is established that at the present stage of development of the institution of public administration in the European doctrine the principle of the rule of law prevails, which is not identified with the principle of legality, as it is included in the list of relevant requirements for the implementation of the first one. The relationship between the rule of law and the rule of legality is shown, given their close relationship, formed in the process of evolution at different times during the development of social relations. As a result of research of scientific literature and normative-legal sources, it is offered to consider legality in activity of public administration in a wide public-administrative context through a prism of regulation of the state-authoritative influence on society for the purpose of its ordering. Since the vector of the rule of law and legality is aimed at both public authorities and society, it is assumed that the adoption of these principles in society involves the implementation of the requirements set out in the article to ensure compliance with public administration.

Introduction. Public authorities, officials, civil servants in carrying out administrative activities, in some cases may violate the principle of legality of public administration, carry out erroneous administrative actions, adopt unreasonable and illegal administrative acts. These negative results of executive and administrative activities of officials violate the rights and freedoms of man and citizen, the legitimate interests of public organizations and legal entities. Such phenomena are called "administrative error". The purpose of the article is to develop theoretical and legal bases of administrative error in the activities of public authorities.

During the analysis of the essence and content of the administrative error, general scientific methods were used, which are based on the method of dialectics, and especially scientific methods of legal knowledge (formal-logical, system-structural). Summary of the main results. The article is devoted to the analysis and research of the concept of administrative error in various legal spheres. The question of studying the causes and consequences of such errors is relevant today, as Ukraine is still reforming the administrative system and changes in the system of public authorities and public administration. These processes, under the influence of administrative reform, have shown not only declarative intentions to transform these relations towards democratic ones, but also a real desire to change the system of public administration to European standards. Therefore, the process of development of public administration was one of the defining components of the overall vector to a democratic, social and legal state. During the exercise of powers by public authorities, officials and civil servants, the action or inaction of governmental subjects of administrative law may be allowed, which leads to violation of human and civil rights and freedoms, legitimate interests of public organizations and legal entities. The consequences of their actions, which lead to administrative errors, are particularly severe, as they violate key principles of public administration, legal rights and individual freedoms, and diminish the authority of public authorities. An imperfect system of mechanisms for the occurrence, detection and prevention of administrative errors is a significant barrier to ensuring a modern system of good governance. Because administrative errors of public authorities are a serious political and socio-legal problem of assumptions, which demonstrate the legal insecurity of man and citizen. Conclusions. Creating an effective mechanism for detecting, preventing and correcting administrative errors could be crucial to reforming the system of public administration in line with modern European values.
