IDEOLOGY AND SOCIO-CULTURAL FOUNDATIONS OF PROVIDING GOVERNANCE SERVICES

Summary/Abstract: Purpose of Article. Reveal the ideology and highlight the socio-cultural foundations for the provision of governance services derived from the analysis of leading-edge ideas of foreign and domestic scientists, and also consider the issues of implementation of the public service policy on the basis of employment. Methodology. The methodological framework of this study is a systematic analysis. General scientific methods for organizing and summarizing and the method of comparative analysis made it possible to correlate the concept of the “service” and “welfare” state, reveal the essence of service -oriented public policy, describe the ideology and socio-cultural principles of governance services. Scientific novelty. The innovation consists in a better understanding of the role of services provided by welfare state authorities in accordance with the classical theory of administration and the concept of the new public management. It has been proved that at the present stage of reforming public administration in Ukraine, governance services should be attributed the government basic function, i.e. any activity of the authorities on behalf of the government will be a service. The applied aspect, the article described the peculiarities of practical implementation of the ideology of providing employment services in Ukraine. Conclusions. In the overwhelming majority of countries in the world where hierarchical administrative management gives way to new government management, the functioning of “network states” is untimely, as it is not possible of to use exclusively the communitarian concept of political networks when the state, instead of exercising its powers through institutions of government, will only regulate ties and relationships of all service actors. There-fore, while building a service state, the network principle of social management-based interaction should be considered only as a form of management that makes it possible to substantially reduce the costs of traditional political and legal regulation of social processes and ensure a more mobile interaction with civil institutions and organizations.
