The article states that globalization changes understanding of the concept of “governance”, territorial membership is no more the epicenter of politics because symmetry between the territorial borders and the political power collapses; it is indicated that the driving forces of the modernization of the global governance process are the large private business represented by multinational corporations and global civil society; it is argued that cultural values and identities play an increasingly important role in the modern world; the population that lives in a certain territory is a permanent community, uni- ted on a territorial basis, and defines the public, private, and social spheres of life; the emphasis is placed on the fact that the public policy of territorial as- sociations should be aimed to ensure the order in the society, coordination and realization of various social interests and achievement of public consent; it is 49 creating a strategy that defines the main goals of the community to improve the quality of public policy. Keywords: public administration, public policy, globalization, global civil society, transnational corporations, values, “good governance,” “anticipatory go- vernance”. ПУБЛІЧНЕ УПРАВЛІННЯ В УМОВАХ ГЛОБАЛІЗАЦІЙНИХ ВИКЛИКІВ Анотація. Визначено, що глобалізація змінює розуміння поняття “управ- ління”, епіцентри політики не мають більше територіальної належності, оскільки симетрія між територіальними кордонами та політичною владою руйнується; доведено, що рушійними силами модернізації глобально-управ- лінського процесу виступають великий приватний бізнес в особі трансна- ціональних корпорацій і глобальне громадянське суспільство. Аргументова- но, що здебільшого роль у сучасному світі відіграють культурні цінності та ідентичності; населення, що проживає на певній території становить постійне співтовариство, об’єднане за територіальною ознакою, й визначає публічну, приватну, соціальну сфери життя. Акцентовано увагу на тому, що публічна політика територіальних об’єднань має бути спрямована на забезпечення по- рядку в суспільстві, узгодження й реалізацію різноманітних соціальних ін- тересів і досягнення громадської злагоди; для підвищення якості публічної політики створюється стратегія, що визначає головні цілі спільноти. Ключові слова: публічне управління, публічна політика, глобалізація, глобальне громадянське суспільство, транснаціональні корпорації, цінності, “гарне управління”, “передбачуване врядування”. ПУБЛИЧНОЕ УПРАВЛЕНИЕ В УСЛОВИЯХ ГЛОБАЛИЗАЦИОННЫХ ВЫЗОВОВ Аннотация. Определено, что глобализация меняет понимание понятия “управление”, эпицентры политики не имеют больше территориальной при- надлежности, поскольку симметрия между территориальными границами и политической властью разрушается; доказано, что движущими силами модернизации глобально-управленческого процесса выступают большой частный бизнес в лице транснациональных корпораций и глобальное гра- жданское общество; аргументировано, все большую роль в современном ми- ре играют культурные ценности и идентичности; население, проживающее на определенной территории, представляет собой постоянное сообщество, объединенное по территориальному признаку, оно определяет публичную, частную, социальную сферы жизни. Акцентировано внимание на том, что публичная политика территориальных объединений должна быть направ- лена на обеспечение порядка в обществе, согласование и реализацию раз- личных социальных интересов и достижение общественного согласия; для повышения качества публичной политики создается стратегия, определяю- щая главные цели сообщества. 50 Ключевые слова: публичное управление, публичная политика, глобали- зация, глобальное гражданское общество, транснациональные корпорации, ценности, “хорошее управление”, “прогнозирующее управление”.
