Modern Society Management Dynamics
Complex, dynamic and contradictory processes are taking place in the modern world. Every society and state strives to know their nature and directions, identify factors that affect the lives of people and society. This is served by management as a mechanism of organizational and legal influence on the ongoing processes in accordance with the established goals. At the same time, multilevel development lags behind the real pace of development, is characterized by weak implementation of laws and other acts, inaction and mistakes. The inconsistency of different levels of management also has a negative effect. The article deals with the issues arising in the organization of management of society as a social system. It defines the most important objects of influence and the importance of a clear interaction of the components of the system. There are four main types of management: social management on the scale of society; management of state affairs; self-regulation as an element of public administration; and management of international affairs. In this regard, the importance of a systematic understanding of law is emphasized, when all branches of law are related to management, and not only administrative one. Law-based management becomes more effective in the context of digitalization, which contributes to the expansion of the information base, openness of procedures and speed of decision-making. But there are limits here, too. The state plays an important role as a political and governing system. The dynamics of the functions of the state in different spheres, as well as the concepts of “state affairs” and “needs of the state” are analyzed. Various analytical methods are used, including project and program-target methods. Attention is paid to the improvement of the state apparatus, the system and status of public bodies, their relationships and performance criteria. The necessity of active participation of citizens in the management and activation of civil society institutions is indicated. Special attention is paid to self-regulation within organizations and other structures. The management of global processes, which is combined with the mechanisms of national governance, is of urgent importance. The forms of interaction between international and national bodies and ways to expand the legal space for solving such strategic tasks as preserving the climate and natural resources, ensuring security, coordinating technological parameters, protecting democratic values and institutions, using energy and other resources are described in detail.
