The article examines the theoretical approaches to understanding the location and functioning of man in the local community asa member.It is proved that the urgency of this issue is determined by the fact that for the first time, at the constitutional level, the Ukrainianstate has recognized the existence of a system of local interests, produced by the territorial community – territorial community, concerningthe existential issues of its existence and functioning. territorial units of the state, which were legalized as issues of local importance.Thus, such interests of the community, according to the current constitutional guidelines, are solved, first, through the use of aspecific historical and universal social and legal institution – local self-government, which really gives the community and its membersopportunities for self-organization in such a community, self-identification and self-expression. within such a community, as well asinitiatives to implement the latter, again within such a community. In addition, it is argued that local self-government is exercised eitherdirectly by such a community (through the use of appropriate mechanisms of direct democracy) or by local governments formed by thecommunity itself in the process of democratic elections and appointments and acting on the principles of representative democracy. Atthe same time, territorial communities act as the primary subjects of local self-government, and therefore local self-government bodiesmust act on behalf of and in the interests of the respective communities.It is argued that the phenomenology of self-presentation of man (personality) in the territorial community has a solid integralphilosophicalbasis, a significant doctrinal-normative basis, reflects axiological guidelines of local government and parametric-teleologicalvalues of formation, functioning, development and development and high motivation of a man (personality) – a member of thecommunity, because it demonstrates its ability to build harmonious relationships with other members of local society in local governmentand its bodies by either leveling their individual guidelines in favor of local society, or by adjusting, synergizing, adaptation tocollective needs. In addition, it demonstrates that the self-presentation of a man (personality) actively forms and demonstrates its selfworth,ability to self-identification, self-organization, self-activity, self-government, as well as the ability to build a balance of intereststhrough human size and application of individual and collective interests (intersubjectivity).

An analysis of the possibilities of applying theoretical approaches to the study of the territorial foundations of local self-government in the RF is presented. On the basis of the institutional approach, the understanding of the municipal formation as a political institution, conditioned by a complex of formal and informal practices, including the organization of municipal power, the political and administrative limits of its implementation, subject-object relations of local governments and the population, is formulated. The use of a community approach to the analysis of the territorial organization of local self-government makes it possible to study the communicative practices of interaction between the population and local self-government bodies, the degree of involvement of the local community in solving local issues. The use of the economic-geographical approach allows us to consider a municipal formation as a complex of resources that determine the level of its socioeconomic development.

The actualization of the results of financial decentralization in Ukraine as part of the reform of decentralization of power and the development of proposals for its improvement is explained by the fact that a clear division of functions, powers and financial resources between national and regional levels is the basis for the well-being of our citizens. opportunities for its sustainable socio- economic development on a democratic basis. It is noted that financial decentralization is a process of giving authority to mobilize revenues and expenditures of local governments in order to increase the effectiveness of the implementation of these powers and better management of community budgets. It is established that unlike traditional entrepreneurship, which focuses on profit generation, the purpose of social entrepreneurship is to create and accumulate social capital. Abroad, social enterprises operate successfully in the fields of education, the environment, human rights, poverty reduction and health care, and their development and dissemination is one way to improve the living conditions of citizens. A similar mission is entrusted to local governments, which allows us to consider the revival of social entrepreneurship as an important element in improving self-government policy. It is determined that in modern conditions social entrepreneurship is one of the tools to ensure the ability of the local community to provide its members with an appropriate level of education, culture, health, housing and communal services, social protection, etc., as well as plan and implement programs efficient use of available natural and human resources, investment and infrastructural support of territorial communities. Due to financial decentralization, local governments have received additional resources that can be used to create economic incentives to promote social entrepreneurship in small and medium-sized businesses at the community level.

AbstractMuch has been written on the positive effect of direct democracy (initiatives, referendums) on voter turnout. However, we have limited knowledge about potential differential effects on voters belonging to various ethnic groups. The paper argues that depending on a group’s responsiveness to the political context, direct democracy can (dis-)integrate voters (from) into the electorate. Empirical analysis of Current Population Survey (CPS) voting supplement survey data, together with data on the absolute use of direct democracy across US states, corroborates this theoretical expectation, however lending more support for the disintegrating assumption. Frequent direct democratic elections further widen the negative voting gap between first-generation Asian voters and voters living in the US for three generations or longer, whereas they tend to diminish this voting gap for first-generation Hispanic voters. The disintegrative pattern for first-generation Asian voters remains even significant when excluding California from the state sample, yet not the integrative tendency for first-generation Hispanics. Additional analyses using alternative measures of direct democracy and voting, and applying statistical adjustments to address causality concerns, confirm the robustness of these findings, which shed light on the so-far underexplored (dis-)integrative potential of political institutions.

Local governments are increasingly developing electronic participation initiatives, expecting citizen involvement in local community affairs. Our objective was to assess e-participation and the extent of its change in local government in Greece. Using content analysis for 325 Greek municipal websites, we assessed e-participation status in 2017 and 2018 and examined the impact of change between these years. The assessment regards two consecutive years since the adoption of digital technologies by municipalities has been rapid. The main findings show that Greek local governments have made significant small- to medium-scale changes, in order to engage citizens and local societies electronically. We conclude that the integration of advanced digital technologies in municipalities remains underdeveloped. We propose that Greek municipalities need to consider incorporating new technologies, such as mobile apps, social media and big data, as well as e-decision making processes, in order to eliminate those obstacles that hinder citizen engagement in local government. Moreover, the COVID-19 outbreak has highlighted the need for enhancing e-participation and policymakers’ coordination through advanced digital technologies.

AbstractFrom nests to nets intricate wiring diagrams surround the birth and the death of life. Here we show that the same rule of complex network self-organization is valid across different physical scales and allows to predict protein interactions, food web trophic relations and world trade network transitions. This rule, which we named CH2-L3, is a network automaton that is based on paths of length-three and that maximizes internal links in local communities and minimizes external ones, according to a mechanistic model essentially driven by topological neighbourhood information.

Although Bangladesh’s immense steps in preparing the disaster management policies following the values of good governance issue, the quantity to which these policies have productively been executing at the local level remnants mostly unknown. The objectives of this investigation were dual: firstly, to inspect the roles and efficiency of the local-level governance and disaster management organization, and lastly, to recognize the obstacles to the execution of national the policies and Disaster-Risk-Reduction guidelines at the local community level. The authors applied qualitative research and case Study approach, using techniques from the Participatory Rural Appraisal toolbox to collect data from local community members as well as government and NGO officials. From the finding of the study, it was revealed that interactive disaster governance, decentralization of disaster management, and compliance by local-level institutions with good governance principles and national policy guidelines can be extremely effective in reducing disaster-loss and damages. According to coastal community members, the local governments have generally failed to uphold good governance principles, and triangulated data confirm that the region at large suffers from rampant corruption, political favoritism, lack of transparency and accountability and minimal inclusion of local inhabitants in decision-making – all of which have severely impeded the successful implementation of national disaster-management policies. This study contributes to these research gaps, with identification of further research agenda in these areas. The paper deals with International Sendai Framework that called for enhancement of local level community resilience to disasters. Thus, it contributes to numerous policy and practice areas relating to good disaster governance. The study identified the specific manifestations of these failures in coastal communities in Bangladesh. These results underscore the vital need to address the wide gap between national DRR goals and the on-the-ground realities of policy implementation to successfully enhance the country’s resilience to climate change-induced disasters.

The cultural heritage of a region is the identity and richness of history for the region. Given the importance of the existence of cultural heritage in an area, the local government should pay special attention to the continuity of its existence. Through inventory, listing the cultural heritages, maintenance until its restoration must be done properly and continuously. This is not only the responsibility of the local government, but it is the responsibility of all parties including the local community. But in practice, local government or society are less concerned about the existence of cultural heritage in the area. This research focuses on cultural heritage buildings in Surabaya because this city is one of the cities in Indonesia which has many buildings of cultural heritage with various conditions. Local governments need to act quickly and effectively to solve the problem, so the solution can be done by including third parties such as insurance companies engaged in the insurance of losses, which can help to cover some form of damage that occurred in the building of the reserve culture in Surabaya. From the problems mentioned above, the research method used is statute approach and conceptual approach.
