PROBLEMS OF REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND DECENTRALIZATION УДК 316.35 JEL: J 18 ZAIATS Tetyana1, KRAIEVSKA Halyna2 1Ptoukha Institute for Demography and Social Studies of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Research ID : http://www.researcherid.com/rid/55864441800 SOCIAL CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT OF TERRITORIAL COMMUNITIES IN UKRAINE The urgency of the tasks related to the development of social capital as one of the intangible assets of territorial communities is due to the need to increase their financial capacity and organizational-economic self-sufficiency at the stage of unification and finding ways to ensure effective self-organization. Peculiarities of development of social capital of territorial communities in Ukraine are revealed, the basic sources and practices of its formation are considered, new possibilities of its strengthening on the basis of public activity are outlined. It is established that the advantages of the main sources and practices of social capital development of territorial communities, which are based on partnerships in the field of inter-municipal cooperation, public-private partnership and introduction of the institution of elders, are combined with significant limitations, first of all: lack of experience in self-organization of the population and the formation of regional and local leaders, creation of an atmosphere of trust and responsibility between interacting actors. Significant regional asymmetry in the practice of their application is due to differences in the priorities of decentralization of management, the development potential of the communities themselves, the levels of their activity. In the future, the development of social capital of territorial communities of Ukraine should be based on the priorities of the concept of sustainable inclusive growth aimed at enhancing community participation in local socio-economic development through employment and local labor markets. This will help strengthen territorial unity and strengthen the social capital of communities. The model of open social capital, focused on achieving a balance of individual, community and national interests with the priority of developing partnerships between government, business and the public, is strategically important. According to the experience of other countries, it is important to develop fundamentally new forms of partnership with a broad representation of social sector structures to perform tasks related to stimulating local development. Such promising partnership models open up new opportunities for social capitalization given the urgent needs of the local population. Keywords:inclusive development; partnership; self-organization of population; social capital; social interaction; territorial communities
