Abstract

Laws of historical development of European and North American countries allow us to consider decentralization of the system of public administration as an essential condition to the effective development of society. The formation of local authorities is a prerequisite for the work of government institutions to the benefit of the person. Representative bodies of municipalities are an integral part of the system of those authorities. The article analyzes the main ways of their formation in the United States compared with Russian counterparts. The mission is, following American experience, to identify the optimal model of citizens’ participation and their associations in the formation of local representative bodies in the Russian municipalities that would correspond to the principles of publicity and openness. The work challenges to review the practice of the formation of representative bodies by citizens. According to the results of this analysis the authors come up with some proposals to improve the legal regulation of citizens’ participation and their associations in the formation of local representative bodies, to establish additional guarantees for the enforcement of this right.
