The influence of the level of development of the Black Sea region (on the example of Mykolaiv, Odessa and Kherson regions) on the directions of implementation of the fiscal policy of the state is investigated. The results of the analysis prove that the most favourable conditions for economic activity in the Black Sea region have been created. High-quality service of payers and good business attitude to paying taxes are provided. The key to economic stability and economic security is the high level of responsibility of business in the region. Improvement of conditions for doing business has led to the increase in the revenue side of the region and to the increase in revenues to the local budget. It has provided an opportunity for local governments to allocate additional funds to finance the social and cultural sphere of the population and residents of the region. It is proved that the indicator of budget revenues of communities is not an instant indicator of recovery of economic growth. Local budget revenues are influenced by the following factors: inflation, rising nominal wages, direct state support (transfers), fiscal decentralization. Extending the rights of regional local authorities and transferring them with a number of powers will stimulate the development of industry and small businesses. Only in this case it will be possible to observe an increase in the share of own and fixed sources of income in local budgets and a decrease in the share of transfers. It is determined that strategic regional economic growth in the process of implementation of fiscal policy should reach its main goal - it is the increase in the revenues and powers of the regions, and hence the improvement of the social and economic situation. At the current stage of development of the fiscal system it is necessary to decentralize not only expenditures, but also incomes; to reduce regional disparities and ensure the economic development of the regions; to establish a transparent process of fiscal equalization to eliminate regional imbalances; to provide the transparent and controlled funding system.

It is established that a person who lost his job suffers not only material loss, but also socio-psychological. Person loses social status, the psychological tension increases, and the circle of communication narrows. The author’s interpretation of the definition of unemployment as a socio-economic problem, which is characterized by forced unemployment of the economically active population, which arises as a result of imbalance in the labor market, caused primarily by economic crisis and ineffective socio-economic policy is proposed. The factors that cause the problem of unemployment in the Black Sea region of Ukraine are substantiated. Exogenous and endogenous factors of unemployment of the population of Ukraine are considered. The territorial structure of the unemployed population in the regions of Ukraine is studied. The age structure of the unemployed population of the Black Sea region of Ukraine is analyzed. Unemployment has been proven to be a negative phenomenon, as it does not create equal opportunities for the development of human potential of the population of the Black Sea region and its market capitalization. It is established that unemployment has a negative impact on all spheres of life in the country. Among the social consequences of unemployment are the strengthening of social tensions and deepening social inequality, the aggravation of the criminal situation in society, the marginalization of the population. Four phases of development of a specific crisis state, through which an unemployed person goes, are studied.

Therefore, the problems of the essence and features of investments of the national economy become relevant, the analysis of these problems will increase the investment attractiveness of Ukraine and its regions. The article analyzes the scientific approaches to defining the category of ‘investment” by different authors, as well as related concepts that are directly related to this category. The signs of investments are systematized. Based on the analysis and generalization of scientific approaches, the definition of the category “investment” is proposed. Based on the analysis of statistical data, the growth of foreign direct investment in the economy of the Black Sea Region of Ukraine was revealed.

Views on the institution of direct democracy have changed during the period of democratic transition. The various advantages and positive effects of direct democracy have been confirmed by the practice of some democratic countries. Its educational and political activation value for society was also noted, without which civil society cannot form. The referendum is especially treated as the purest form of correlation between the views of society and the decisions of its representatives. In a situation where two representative bodies are present – the parliament and the president – a referendum is considered a means of resolving disputes between them in important state affairs. The referendum is nowadays becoming more than just a binding or consultative opinion on a legislative act, especially a constitution. First and foremost, it is important to see the extension of the type and scope of issues that are subject to direct voting. Apart from the traditional, i.e., constitutional changes, polarising issues that raise considerable emotion have become the subject of referenda. Problems of this type include, in particular, moral issues, membership in international organisations, and so-called ‘New Policy’. This article presents the role and importance of the referendum as an institution shaping the democratic systems of the Black Sea Region.
