Abstract

Problem setting. Range of efficiency problems is crucial for public management in general, and local self-government in particular. The problem of decentralization, local self-government do not stop coming out of agenda on state policy, so we consider it necessary to instill some flagship approaches concerning possibilities in principle to provide from the sidelines of public authorities (both state and local levels) advocacy efficiency, which we interpret as system. The thing is that modern national reality is inherent in process of the population activation, the level of its involvement of its engagement into local self-government management and interaction with local self-government authorities thickens. One of powerful, but insufficiently used forms of influence of the general public on solution of local significance problems is advocacy phenomenon, and that is why making the vision of its efficiency turns out to be a scientific problem utterly urgent for solution.Recent research and publications analysis. The main best practices in public management efficiency range of problems are stated in public management encyclopedia (in 8 volumes) dated 2011. Also the organization systems various classes functioning efficiency evaluation were substantially considered, in particular, in the research of K.Fisun and M.Naumenko. It should be noted that in all the published works of the modern scientists in the appropriate branch of science, the problems of efficiency in addition to the objects they are researching, are being considered. In this context special attention is needed for such focuses as political and economical dimensions of public management, researched in the works of T.Latkovska, Lyubov Bila-Tiunova and modern approaches to anticorruption principles in government authorities activity, described by O.Safonchyk and A.Ripenko. The range of advocacy problems is researched by both national and foreign scientists. The works which are currently central are those in which some specific problems of protection cultural rights and freedoms protection for the citizens are described by M.Inshyn, Y.Міroshnychenko and Y.Paida, and the problems of main functions, tools and methods generation to protect the rights of the citizens for entrepreneurship were considered by S.Penkov and Mykola Chabanenko. There are also some problems which are of significant interest for our research, namely the problems of the corporate vehicles social activity in Germany, researched by T.Galetska, N.Topishko and I.Topishko. At the same time now there are no multi-method researches of problems on advocacy efficiency on local level, and this is the reason which necessitated conduct of this research.The paper objective is to explain the approaches to defining the factors of advocacy system efficiency on local level. The paper main body. The advocacy system efficiency is researched through generation of its subjects, certain institutions, which come up as its elements. The main factor of the networks generation is filling of information space. Upon that such types of the networks as free informal and arranged informal one and the formal one as well are singled out. The participants of any network structure have communication, management and information connections and also connections responsible for communication with the general public.The advocacy efficiency depends on a range of internal and external environment factors. When the author lays emphasis on such external factors, which have an effect on advocacy, namely political climate, adequacy, legitimacy, feasibility, admissibility, in this situation question of economic efficiency of advocacy remains to be pretty relative due to necessity to engage discretionary funding to implement advocacy function, on one hand, and necessity to achieve goals, which may not include economic component. In its turn if there is no discretionary funding, this threatens independence, loyalty of the campaign, obligation on provision of justice and extension of rights and opportunities. It was found that central funding can solve the problem of advocacy economic dependence and promote its efficiency. Although advocacy is used to promote the unprotected interests and states, implementation of equal rights in real life on official, local or state level, in other words, to obtain legitimization of protection procedure must be the result of it.The proofs of advocacy efficiency remain to be limited and only a small scope of information, which concerns progress of advocacy process, is available. However the author defined some important advantages of advocacy process, associated with extension of opportunities, self-efficiency and confidence of its participants.Conclusions of the research. The result of the conducted research allowed to find out that the necessary factors to provide efficiency for the advocacy system on exogenous level are as follows: regulatory legal provision of the mere opportunity of advocacy implementation; adjustment of principles for financing the advocacy processes from state/local budgets; broad public awareness campaign among all the subjects of territorial development; development and promotion of implementation for all the advocacy efficient algorithms. On endogenous level the guiding principle to provide efficiency for advocacy is formation and functioning of multifaceted network of the institutions which perform functions of its subjects.
