Abstract

This article highlights the problems of communities united under decentralization in Ukraine. Decentralization is a key to effective territorial development and the path to democratization as well as real democracy. Therefore, Ukraine urgently needs to ensure communities to have the right credentials and be able to implement them in the transfer of responsibilities and resources to lower levels of public administration by the central government. In order to weaken the centralization of power through decentralization so it would not lead to growth of the arbitrariness of local officials and growing public dissatisfaction with the government. And so, the government should create a legal and financial framework that would assure the possibility of local governments united communities and so they can have their own funds and powers to effectively address local issues.
