Today, our state is undergoing significant shifts and transformations of the outdated social system, affecting all spheres of the country’s functioning. Such shifts are taking place all over the world and are due to the presence and active influence of globalization processes. World globalization prompts all countries of the world to revise the outdated postulates of their national policy towards realizing the importance of adapting international goals and values recognized by the world community, which are designed not only to ensure the harmonious development of an individual country, but of the whole world. Globalization acts as a factor in leveling static ties between countries, expanding the boundaries of interaction. Basically, the vector of activity of globalization processes is inclined towards the formation of a unified system of socio-economic and political-legal forms of state structure. At the same time, a qualitatively new formation of branched transnational systems of ties is taking place, as a result of which qualitatively new “social actors” enter the world arena, which in turn form new communities, communications and channels of interaction. Thus, the influence of globalization processes is becoming a powerful factor in the democratization of society, increased transparency in government circles and the establishment of equality in society. The purpose of the article is to characterize the main features of the impact of socio-economic globalization on the public administration system in the field of higher education. It is determined that the process of globalization, like other processes, has its own life cycle, which, in our opinion, should be considered as a vicious circle, that is, it has an end, but which, at the same time, becomes the beginning of a new cycle. It has been proven that globalization has led to the need for teaching intercultural communication skills. To move at the same pace with the world, we must start, not turn away from the idea of globalization and its impact on the curriculum of higher education, and strive to understand how to educate citizens who fit into a global way of life. A growing number of case studies point to the complexity of the impact of globalization on the future of higher education. In the future, attention should be paid to determining the main factors of the impact of socio-economic globalization on the public administration system in the field of higher education.

This article explores the impact of protests against economic globalization in the public sphere. The focus is on two periodical events targeted by transnational protests: the ministerial conferences of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the annual meetings of the World Economic Forum (WEF). Based on a selection of seven quality newspapers published in different parts of the world, we trace media attention, support of the activists, as well as the broader public debate on economic globalization. We find that starting with Seattle, protest events received extensive media coverage. Media support of the street activists, especially in the case of the anti-WEF protests, is however rather low. Nevertheless, despite the low levels of support that street protesters received, many of their issues obtain wide public support.

This chapter discusses the impact of the pan-European general principles of good administration on Armenian administrative law. The chapter claims that successful reform of Armenian public administration is an indispensable prerequisite for successful implementation of these principles but that there is still a long way to go. Besides this, the Armenian legal order is generally open to being shaped and influenced by the said principles and demonstrates numerous successful examples thereof. Nevertheless, the chapter highlights that usually the Armenian legislator is the only one to transfer these principles into Armenian law. It describes the reception of the pan-European general principles of good administration as still being under development in Armenia. The chapter concludes that in order to guarantee the full extent of ‘good administration’ it remains necessary that general reforming of Armenian public administration be successfully implemented.

The article analyzes the approaches to reforming the public administration system. Three types of reforms have been implemented in the world: first, economization is to increase the efficiency of administration while saving money; the second area of reform was the decentralization of public administration, which was clearly reflected in the growing role of local governments in European countries; The third area of reform was to increase the openness of public administration to the public, which should have helped to increase the legitimacy of the administration in the new environment. The author analyzed the following modern models of public administration: new state management; neo-institutionalism; "Governance" (or "good governance").

The subject, a source of long standing debate among theoreticians and practitioners in public administration, is revisited in an interesting and challenging way. In the face of a changing decentralized government role in many parts of the world, the author presents a modified classical position that proposes to deal with the impact of this on the public service. Canada and the Canadian public service are attempting to re-establish their roles in this new milieu. The author argues for a new role for public administration by drawing from an historical development of the field and introducing new arguments to support changing needs.

In most advanced countries of the world, the transition of public administration to “digital tracks” is proceeding rather slowly; development is far behind officially defined and announced schedules. In this regard, the digital modernization of the public administration system becomes particularly relevant. The purpose of the article is to identify the prerogatives for digital modernization of the public administration system, based on an assessment of the development of digital government and identification of major barriers. Based on the assessment, a high level of development of the digital government in Kazakhstan has been determined, despite the special emphasis of government agencies on automation in recent years, the visible results of the conversion of public services into electronic format are still unsatisfactory. The article discusses the main barriers and prerogatives of digital modernization of the public administration system. The authors conclude that active digital modernization of the public administration system implies the expansion of methods for analyzing and evaluating the implementation of government programs and projects, including the audit of the effectiveness and efficiency of their implementation.

Technological changes taking place under the flag of digitalization affect not only the sphere of technology itself. Digitalization is not a politically neutral process, a simple means of increasing labor productivity. It has a decisive influence on all spheres of life of modern society, creating additional conditions for their networking. The network architecture of emerging relations includes not only social and political agents, but also the technical objects themselves, which begin to perform the functions of mediators in interaction. There is a pessimistic and optimistic direction in assessing the ongoing transformations and the role of the technical component in them. Some politicians and scientists talk about a new cybernetic totalitarianism, while others believe that in modern conditions not only challenges arise, but also prospects for more meaningful and effective development are being formed. The article focuses on one important aspect of the topic related to the relation of digitalization, its inclusion in the public administration system and the emerging problems of public governability. Trends in the impact of digitalization on public governability are considered, four models of network governability efficiency are analyzed: interactive, contingent, multidimensional, socio-technical. Particular attention is paid to the problem of cooperation between government and citizens, which ensure the effectiveness of governance based on co-governance networks.

Universities are very stable institutions where their basic role in society is still alive after centuries; nevertheless, the way to provide it has deeply changed due to the generation of knowledge, evolution of technology, and evolution in internal and external governance and funding schemes. Even if those changes were successfully surfed and universities are still recognised in society as key actors for education and knowledge generation, new challenges are on the way and the smooth adaptation approach used in the past could be not valid anymore in front of disruptive societal changes. In fact, traditional higher-education value-chain is being challenged with the introduction of new actors in the higher education process and the emergence of IT-based disruptive learning models, which impact on university performance and governance. The main goal of this paper is to analyse how public universities’ structures should efficiently evolve in that context while preserving their role in society. We are aware that many of the findings could be also applied to private universities although regulatory contexts are different.The article offers a global view on public university governance challenges motivated by the digitisation of society and how Western universities should address them in order to keep a prominent role in the future knowledge society, where more complex educational ecosystems will be in place. The objective is to analyse the relative importance and interaction of a set of drivers for transforming universities’ structures in the context of a digital economy and how the (fragmented) answers provided today by universities over the world should evolve in the future towards a consistent policy and organisational mix by using concepts borrowed from digital platforms and collaborative economy. The article is mainly focused on the situation in the European Union (EU) linked to policy actions launched by the European Commission and EU Member States, although some action lines could be shared in broader geographical contexts.The analysis presented in the paper is focused on the applicability of the concept of (digital) higher educational platforms and how they can modify the provision of higher education services within an open education ecosystem in close cooperation with other actors. The impact in the higher-education value chain implies that several public and private actors will occupy positions formerly exclusively linked to universities; this evolution and their consequence are presented in the article through a number of potential trajectories. Finally, the article discusses a much more disruptive perspective by considering the future role of universities as “specialised learning platforms” for providing higher educational services over the world with weaker links to territory, and its derived consequences for new or pre-existent universities.

Automated vehicles (AVs) already navigate US highways and those of many other nations around the world. Current questions about AVs do not now revolve around whether such technologies should or should not be implemented; they are already with us. Rather, such questions are more and more focused on how such technologies will impact evolving transportation systems, our social world, and the individuals who live within it and whether such systems ought to be fully automated or remain under some form of direct human control. More importantly, how will mobility itself change as these independent operational vehicles first share and then dominate our roadways? How will the public be kept apprised of their evolving capacities, and what will be the impact of science and the communication of scientific advances across the varying forms of social media on these developments? We look here to address these issues and to provide some suggestions for the problems that are currently emerging.

Our paper focuses on the description of both multinational enterprises (MNE) and the state owned multinational enterprises (SO-MNE) rates of importance within the world economy. The impact of the public administration is felt in both counts. Along Europe it is more intensive in the post-communist countries like in Czech Republic and Slovak Republic and the same in some Arab countries where the SO-MNE are intensive even dominantly operating mostly within the energy industry segments.
