Проанализированы отечественное и зарубежное законодательства по данному вопросу. Акцентировано внимание на необходимости законодательного закрепления научно обоснованных критериев отнесения населенных пунктов к той или иной категории (села, поселка, города) и установление основных критериев отнесения населенных пунктов к категории городских. ; Problem setting. Legislative inconsistency and a number of legislative issues not regulated by administrative-territorial structure of the state do a lot of problems and obstacles to economic and social development of the respective cities, territories, regions, regions. The decision of criteria for the classification of settlements has become increasingly a priority.

Today in Ukraine a large number of settlements is connected to the cities of Republican (in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea) and of regional importance with the preservation them as separate administrative units ("City Council"). Existing criteria for classification of categories of cities of district, regional, republican value by population does not meet modern requirements. For the intensive development of urban settlements is necessary to consider specific regional characteristics each of them. Conclusions of the research. Precise legislative consolidation of legal status of administrative territorial units (especially urban settlements) contributes to the removal of many legal disputes. The establishment of basic criteria for determining settlements in rural and urban will meet the requirements of the current Constitution of Ukraine.
В настоящее время проблема функционирования и социально-экономического развития моногородов в России, возникших исторически, приобрела особую актуальность. В статье рассматриваются моноспециализированные населенные пункты Забайкальского края, включенные в перечень, составленный на основе предложений субъектов РФ и одобренный Рабочей группой по модернизации моногородов при Правительственной комиссии по повышению устойчивости российской экономики. Автором анализируется классификация, проблемы и перспективы, а также подсчитан индекс устойчивости данных поселений. Отмечена общность проблем поселений, зависимость перспектив развития поселений от численности населения.At present the problem of functioning and socio-economic development of historically emerged monotowns in Russia acquired a special urgency. In the article the monospecialized settlements of Zabaykalsky Krai included in the list made on the basis of offers of territorial subjects of the Russian Federation and approved by the Working group on modernization of monotowns at the Government commission on increase of stability of the Russian economy are considered. The author analyzes the classification, problems and prospects of monosettlements and has calculated the stability index of these settlements. The community of problems of settlements, dependence of prospects of development of settlements on population is noted. The economy of many monospecialized cities is concentrated and depends on one city-forming enterprise. In such settlements (the city, the settlement) life and wellbeing of people are closely connected with the activity of one (or several) city-forming enterprises. The city-forming enterprise carries out not only economic, but also social loading, in the prevailing measure providing activity conditions in the settlement. Because of sharp drop of demand in the markets for production of the city-forming enterprises their owners had to reduce outputs, to send workers on forced leaves, to transfer them to a part-time work, or to dismiss altogether. Primary branches of economy of monotowns are the metallurgy, mining and the forest industry. The objective of this research to analyse regional specificity of monospecialized settlements of Zabaykalsky Krai. In connection with that the following problems were solved: to reveal features and problems of monosettlements, to carry out typology of monosettlements of the area. The accent of research is moved to city settlements, as overwhelming number of monospecialized settlements the city and the settlement of city type. The analysis is based on data of the official site of the Ministry of economic development of Zabaykalsky Krai, web resources, the literature analysis with application of comparative and geographical, cartographical methods. The object of research were monospecialized settlements of Zabaykalsky Krai. The carried-out typology of the considered monospecialized settlements of Zabaykalsky Krai showed a community of their problems: high degree of monostructure of economy of settlements, negative demographic processes, economic problems at the city-forming enterprises. The share of the city-forming enterprises in the main socio-economic indexes of monospecialized settlements is high. Budgets of the considered settlements are subsidized: the most part is made by gratuitous receipts of budgets of other levels (on average 50%). The main share of the entering receipts is formed at the expense of the city-forming enterprises and taxes on the income of individuals. Thus, dependence of settlements on the activity of the city-forming enterprises remains. Now the differentiated policy in the solution of problems of monospecialized settlements is offered: actions and mechanisms of development and support depending on a social and economic situation. In the consideration of prospects of monosettlements the criterion of population is very important. Development of alternative productions (diversification of economy due to implementation of projects in spheres of economy, non-adjacent activity of the city-forming enterprise) is the most difficult and important point in the solution of problems of monotowns. For such settlements overcoming of a monoprofile, activity diversification that is in turn connected with existence of investment projects is promising.
The subject of this research was the modern urban agglomerations and its aim was to find out the main tendencies of their development by way of the analyses of problems faced by urban agglomerations and their management mechanisms. The main method of the conducted research was the comparative legal method, as the study is based on comparing the experience of different countries in the sphere of urban governance. The author used sociological, systemic and structural-functional approaches as well. The author believes that the problems faced by urban agglomerations are caused by the activities of different administrative bodies at their territory, the lack of proper coordination in the face of pretty acute rivalry between them. The mentioned problems are also exacerbated by modern migration processes. The number of "native" inhabitants is being decreased in many cities, the middle class is largely moving to suburbs while poor people are moving to urban centers, the urban population is getting older. The article also contains the analyses of different attitudes towards organization of administrative structures at the territory of the modern agglomeration. Proponents of only one strong jurisdiction, functioning within the agglomeration and taking decisions obligatory for the whole area, were called "consolidationists. "Polycentrists" believe that the more various jurisdictions function within the agglomeration the better, because centralized and hierarchical administrative model is outdated and ineffective.
