Main Trends of Excludes of the Population from the Exercise of local self-government
Legislation provides for a whole range of organizational and legal forms of the population's exercise of local self-government. However, in connection with the counter-reform of local self-government, the population is increasingly being removed from the exercise of local self-government. The article analyzes the successive process of removing the population from the implementation of local self-government through legislative changes in the competence, territorial bases and organization bases of local government. The author comes to a conclusion about the virtual complete elimination of the principle of democracy in the sphere of local self-government.
