Klimanova, A. Yu. Problems of Determination of the Legal Content of the Term ‘Economic Basis of the Local Self- Government’

Abstract: In order to ensure appropriate performance of local authorities, it is necessary to create a sufficient economic basis which is impossible if we do not have a clear definition of this term as well as definitions of such terms as ‘local self-government’ and its ‘basis’. Today neither politicians, nor scientists share the same opinion on the above mentioned definitions. Having conducted the comparative law analysis of legal acts and publications, the author of this article makes a conclusion that ‘local self-government’ is a multiple-meaning concept which depends on the context in which it is used.
