Abstract

The experience of European democracies has great significance in building local governance, given its effectiveness, efficiency, and productivity. Local governance touches upon essential civil problems concerning the life of every person in a particular territory. This intensifies the need to search for an optimal model of local governance today. The purpose of the article is to examine the legal regulation of local governance in European countries. The article also aims to clarify the historical aspects of the local government development and comprehensively study the impact of European standards in this area on regional policy. The authors used the scientific method to identify the theoretical basis of the study. An analysis and synthesis were applied for the discussion section to find a common notion and opinion on the study of local government systems. The main method used in the article is the comparison method that allowed us to compare two local government systems and, as a result, find out an optimal one. The same method has been used to determine the factors that influence regional policy. The results obtained are necessary for the further development of local government systems, their improvement, and modernization at the legal and political levels.
