countries. Because local self-government is defined by 
multiple degrees of administrative-territorial frameworks in 
most countries around the world. They differ from the 
neighborhood institute in terms of size, organization, and 
functions. As a result, we must study the peculiarities of the 
forms of local self-government that exist in other nations in 
order to detect such distinctions. 
Analysis of the literature on the subject. There is a 
tradition of using the phrase "municipal government" to 
describe self-government in political and legal literature, as 
well as in international political practice. The "municipality" is 
the most common form of local self-government in most 
countries. The phrase is frequently used in laws, including the 
United States Constitution. The origin and meaning of this 
phrase, according to Russian physicist GV Barabashev, may 
be traced back over many centuries. The term "municipality" 
comes from the Latin word "municipium," which was the 
designation given to cities that exercised their right to self-
government during the Roman republic. A municipality is 
currently defined as an elected city or village government, 
although in the United States, only a city government is 
referred to as a municipality. 
According to P.D. Barenboim, the scientific concept 
of local self-government was first developed in the works of 
the ideologues of the bourgeois revolution, and its essence and 
role were linked to the ideas of local government and 
community self-government. At that time, the principle of the 
election of local authorities coincided with the idea of 
representation against feudal absolutism [2]. The theory of the 
independence 
of 
elected 
municipal 
bodies, 
their 
decentralization in the management of the affairs of urban and 
rural communities, reflected the functions of the original 
bourgeois government and, accordingly, their recognition as 
subjects of local self-government. 
According to American scientist R.T. Berres, throu-
ghout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, that is, 
during the period of classical capitalism, the development of 
local government continued in the direction of deviating from 
previously proclaimed democratic slogans such as equality 
and freedom.
State bodies have a tendency to be placed under state 
control in order to prioritize national objectives over local 
concerns. The center's engagement in local issues has grown 
as the functions of local self-government authorities in 
utilities, education, health, and other areas have expanded. 
Local government began to lose some of the 
characteristics of true local self-governance in the mid-
twentieth century, when it was formerly free of interference 
from the central government's bureaucratic structure. 
According to certain modern authors, the number of choices 
made by the center is growing, putting the weight of 
unconditional implementation on local representative bodies. 
Objectively, this means that local representative bodies are 
becoming the backbone of public administration, a specific 
mechanism for implementing the instructions of the central 
government [4].
