Abstract:
Explicated the need to compare the established
paradigmatic ideas in local public management and
in the political science research environment.
Particular attention is paid to the important issue of
the project relationship establishing between the
paradigmatic approach and the subject field of public
management research. Essential discrepancies
between the key paradigmatic approaches to local
public management and policy making at the local
level are revealed. Stated the necessity of essential
empirical material evaluation for further research and
possibly improvement of the regulatory framework
for local public management. Proved that the
particular author's (actors`) main reason for
conducting paradigmatic discussions on local public
management is the need to communicate with a
powerful research tradition. It is concluded that, the
success of public policies and their impact on the
lives of citizens depends on an understanding of epistemic foundations. Established that different paradigmatic alternatives of public decisions are determined on the basis of scientific data. Considered the most optimal way of applying any paradigmatic approaches is the analysis of the expediency of applying the methodology and forecasting the achievement of scientific novelty or specific results of management projects.
