| Popis: | Theoretical approaches to the formation of the budget mechanism as a form of practical implementation of budget policy are made more profound; budget decentralization as a budget regulating and stimulating mechanism in the current situation in Ukraine is studiedl and perspective directions of introducing various budget mechanism are outlined. The mechanistic concept was applied to budgetary relations, thus becoming the basis for highlighting the main features of the budgetary mechanism, determining the main provisions of forming the budgetary mechanism. Emphasis is placed on the relationship between budget policy, which is manifested through the dialectical unity of budget strategy and tactics, and the budget mechanism. The budgetary mechanism is defined as a system of measures aimed at influencing the mobilization of optimal funds, their efficient distribution and rational use in order to ensure macroeconomic balance, sustainable development and preservation of state sovereignty, as defined by state policy. It is suggested to integrate the constituent elements of the budgetary mechanism into the appropriate subsystems within its framework, through which the main functions of the budgetary mechanism aimed at achieving the goal are manifested. In order to study a subsystem of the budgetary mechanism, namely the regulatory mechanism, the peculiarities of the manifestation of budgetary decentralization in Ukraine are analyzed. It is proved that the introduction of the subsidiarity principle while constructing the decentralized model of inter-budgetary relations in the unitary Ukraine is currently the best option for it to find a balance between the advantages of budgetary federalism and the unitary form of budgetary relations. Systemic problems of budget decentralization have been identified, namely: decentralization occurs by bringing in new persons to act on the national level; it does not affect the mechanisms of autonomy in decision-making on taxation and the formation of additional sources of local budget revenues; statutory tax benefits for the local tax mobilization significantly reduce the financial resources of local budgets; local budgets remain significantly dependant from the state; in the regulation of local budget revenues, preference is given to transfer instruments, and the share of budget-generating taxes is reduced. Given the theoretical construct of the public sector theory, which gives grounds to the formation of local budget revenues, and the results of the research on budget regulation in Ukraine, budget decentralization processes are only proven to be pretentious, and the need to improve the division of budget authority is identified, while emphasis is made on financial self-sufficiency. |
