In the modern world, Internet technologies play an important role in the life of every person. Political authorities also understand how the Internet makes life easier for society. The authors analyze the interpretation of Ukraine and the European Union, the concept of «e-government». While solving the tasks of the research the authors define the own definition of e-government, where they offer to understand e-government as an integrated system of all state registries, open source data portals and administrative services that make the interaction of public administration bodies with society as easy as possible. Special attention is paid to analysis of problems of implementation e-government into Ukrainian legislation. The authors identify three main problems. The first is the insecurity of personal data. According to the authors, Ukrainian legislation is not ready for the implementation of legal acts of e-government. The second problem is the lack of knowledge and skills in using the e-government system. The absence of an appropriate authority regulating relations in this area. The third problem is the socio-informational inequality. Not all people have access to the Internet and not all people want to move into information age. The authors also analyze the achievements of Ukrainian society in the development of e-government. According to the results of the conducted studying we can concluded that implementation system of e-government has a lot of advantages. E-government is one of the keys of democracy.

The article highlights the main points of transition to the second stage of decentralization in Ukraine. It is emphasized that the state regional policy of Ukraine can not be reduced to the reform of the administrative and territorial system only. However, it is currently impossible to achieve economic growth and development of the state as a whole without reforming the territorial organization of government and systematic understanding of the place of communities in regional development. The article studies the evolution of voluntary merger of territorial communities. At the transition to the second stage of decentralization, which suggests formation of a subregional administrative and territorial system, it is proposed to consider merger of territorial communities based on the principle of their capacity, consolidating or reformatting them if necessary. This will help to achieve community competitiveness and economic growth.

The article reveals the features of parliamentary responsibility of the governments of Western Europe. When the government or some of its members is to be failing to carry out their duties, parliament can initiate procedures which have the potential to replace all or part of the government. There are two different types of procedure. One is the withdrawal of confidence in the government or in individual ministers. The requirement for a certain minimum number of votes to be obtained before such motions can be initiated or passed highlights the relative strengths of the different political groups within parliament. Where the government has a parliamentary majority, it can usually count on that majority to block the motions. The majority of the parliaments in Europe allow votes of no confidence in the government. Where the legitimacy of the government rests on parliamentary confidence, the withdrawal or denial of confidence by parliament can force the government out of power. For a vote of no confidence to be passed an absolute majority of all members of the chamber (or chambers, if votes are taken in joint session) is required. Where the collective responsibility of the Cabinet is stressed, a votum of no confidence against individual members is prohibited. Several parliaments admit both collective and individual responsibility and allow both types of no confidence motions. The difference between votum of no confidence in the government as a whole and votum against individual ministers were researched. It is concluded that institute of government' parliamentary responsibility of is the an integral feature of a democratic state with parliamentarianism, ensuring the optimal functioning of the highest bodies of state legislative and executive power

Стаття присвячена аналізу теоретичних і практичних аспектів упровадження механізмів government relations (GR) у систему взаємодії влади та бізнесу. GR розглядається у порівнянні з лобізмом, public relations та public af-fairs. У статті відзначено, що GR створює нові можливості забезпечення узгодження інтересів влади, бізнесу та громадянського суспільства в Україні. У цьому сенсі GR є суспільно важливим механізмом для демократичного ро-звитку країни, оскільки дає можливість бізнесу та інституціям громадянського суспільства впливати на рішення влади. Деякі автори пов'язують GR з лобізмом, вважаючи, що ці поняття тотожні. Проте, різниця між ними є суттєвою. На відміну від традиційних форм лобізму, які тісно пов'язані з міжособистісною взаємодією з політиками і державними службовцями, GR має цілу низку стратегічних переваг.По-перше, в суспільній свідомості в Україні лобізм, на відміну від GR, практично є синонімом корупції, оскільки контакти зацікавлених осіб із представниками політичного істеблішменту відбуваються кулуарно. Скритність цього процесу веде до ефекту негативного сприйняття у соціальній свідомості.По-друге, лобізм призводить до залежності суб'єктів лобіювання від персоналій у владних структурах, від їх суб'єктивних переваг і побажань. Це негативним чином позначається на довгостроковому плануванні, а також ставить учасників ринку в нерівне становище, коли, наприклад, державні за-мовлення розподіляються на користь одного з учасників.По-третє, особливістю GR є постійне використання інноваційних ко-мунікативних технологій, які прийшли з форсайту, PR та електоральних кампаній.У статті робиться висновок, що GR в Україні є важливим інструментом діалогу держави і бізнесу, від якого залежать: якість державного управління, унормованість ринкового середовища, умови конкуренції, розвиток бізнесу загалом. Такий діалог потребує законодавчого захисту й механізмів ухвалення на його основі обов'язкових для всіх сторін рішень, адже бізнес, орієнтований на перспективу, найперше очікує від влади стабільних правил гри і ...

Nowadays, media act as a conduit between governmental authorities and the public. The adjusted mechanism of interaction between public authorities and the media, effective and open information policy of the state, filling the information space with key messages today are just some of the main government's tasks in overcoming the crisis. The purpose of this article is to explore the main trends that exist in Ukrainian political and information spheres in order to develop anti-crisis tools for the effective formation of the media reputation of governmental authorities of Ukraine. In the process of research, a number of general scientific and special research methods were used, in particular, structural-functional, comparative, qualitative-quantitative, empirical research, etc. The lack of clear communication strategy, professional anti-crisis structural units for information monitoring and analysis, insufficient diagnostics of citizens' reaction to communication messages and attempts to resolve conflicts and crises situations cause the decrease of Ukraine's reputation in the international arena, makes it impossible for the public authorities to resolve crisis issues and inform the citizens during crisis and emergency situations. As a result of the research, it was stated that there is a lack of articulation of meaningful answers to painful questions and purposeful concentration of media and public attention to help to solve problems instead of spreading destructive sentiments. Under the new conditions of information space globalization and information wars, the state is obliged to bring Ukraine's media legislation to European standards, ensure national interests' preservation, take timely measures to protect vulnerable groups from potentially harmful content, without hindering the right to freedom of speech. Under these conditions, the level of trust in state institutions is dramatically falling and, public authorities should closely collaborate with civil society organizations. One of the key diagnostic methods ...
