CONCEPTUAL AND TERMINOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF THE "MECHANISMS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION" CATEGORY

Abstract

This paper analyzes the content of the category "mechanisms of public administration" from the position of a systematic approach. It was determined that researchers consider the mechanism of public administration from the point of view of various approaches: sociological, dialectical, essential. Based on the analysis of scientific works in which the authors give their interpretation of the definition of the concept of "mechanisms of public administration", it is established that basically the mechanisms of public administration are considered as a set of norms, methods, levers, means, incentives, tools with which government bodies perform functions and the tasks entrusted to them. So, the mechanisms of public administration are considered as practical measures, means, levers and incentives with the help of which public authorities influence society, production, any social system in order to achieve their goals. Basically, the diagram of the real mechanism of public administration contains goals, decisions, influences, actions, results. The main types of mechanisms of public administration by scientists are determined by the political, economic, material and technical, regulatory, organizational, informational and analytical mechanism of public administration. studies of the essence of the category "mechanisms of public administration" showed that the processes of public administration are provided by appropriate mechanisms that have a dynamic nature of a set of certain actions, and are subordinate to a set goal, goals and objectives, and depending on management processes, the action of public administration mechanisms also changes. Conceptualization of the content of the category "mechanism of public administration" in the aggregate allows us to define the mechanism of public administration as a system of interrelated components that, interacting with each other, affect the object of management.
