Conceptual Foundations of the Post-war Transformation of Public Administration: Archetypal Approach

Abstract

The article determines the theoretical basis of the post-war transformation of public administration. It is emphasized that Ukraine has chosen the path to transform the public administration system with an orientation towards European standards and a systemic transformation of the state system, based on the modernization paradigm. An analysis of current problems of public administration transformation processes in Ukraine has been conducted, based on which positive and negative trends of transformation processes have been identified both at the national and local levels. The need for a post-war transformation of public administration taking into account the archetypal approach has been proven. When implementing the post-war transformation of public administration, it is justified to take into account the connections between the contingent of voters and state (regional) programs developed to provide services to these voters using an archetypal approach, which takes into account various types of connections between a person and the state, which develops and implements programs aimed at improving people’s well-being. The results suggest that the formation of the system and mechanisms of the post-war transformation of public administration should be based on the concept of managing transformational processes in socio-economic systems taking into consideration the archetypal approach.
