Significant impact on development. Factors affecting the development of abilities. As well as other works that may interest you

As is commonly believed in psychology, a person's abilities develop from his natural inclinations. Abilities are also mainly determined by biological factors - they reflect the functional readiness of the body to perform a particular activity. But this readiness should manifest itself from the inclinations - the body (including the central nervous system, psyche) is undergoing a kind of adjustment. Inclinations and abilities affect education, and together they affect the success of a particular activity.

It should be borne in mind that natural inclinations can manifest themselves, transform into abilities at different periods of life. Usually, of course, this happens in childhood, adolescence and youth, but the same musical abilities can manifest themselves at the age of three, and at eighteen.

The development of the makings of abilities is greatly influenced by social environment: family, friends, school and other social institutions. The social environment is a source of both one's own behavior and information for a person at different ages. The social environment immerses the child in a new activity for him, supports him in certain undertakings or hinders this. It is important that there are people around the child with whom he is interested in communicating, from whom you can ask for an answer to any question, from whom you can expect creative initiatives.

In addition to the social environment, it is also important material environment: tools, various kinds of technical capabilities, sources of information, etc. It is known that Mozart already showed musical abilities at the age of three. However, if there were not a single musical instrument in his environment, this would not have happened.

When developing abilities, it is necessary to take into account sensitive periods of development various functions. It is important to encourage curiosity and feed the child with all the information requested. There is, for example, such a sensitive period of perception of small objects (child 1.5 - 2.5 years). During this period, the child is especially interested small items. If he is interested, he should be given such an opportunity (subject to reasonable security measures).

It is desirable that at any time the child's activity is in the zone optimal difficulty. A very simple activity leads to a decrease in interests, a loss of meaning in predictability. A very complex activity can delay the achievement of results and satisfaction for a long time, which greatly reduces motivation.

If a child has pronounced natural inclinations (real, not invented by parents), then it is quite important to state this fact. as soon as possible and, if possible, help the child to disclose these inclinations as a priority.

In this regard, it is immediately worth mentioning the importance comprehensive development of interests and abilities. A common mistake is to lock onto one activity. Parents and the child himself believe that there is no need to waste time on extraneous things. In fact, this can lead to the extinction of the main interest, and to the formation of a too narrow specialist. Enough typical example- a musician who has been honing his musical skills and skills all his life. The narrowness of interests and horizons at the same time leads to the inability to develop into a composer, songwriter or music producer, even if there is such a desire. Abilities tend to spread to related activities, in this expansion there is a general development, which then "returns" to the original ability.

Therefore, one should not forget about support of any interest. Interest is not an inclination (at least it is still far from it). Even if some slippery, unpleasant topics are touched upon, the parent just needs to do some explanatory work. For the development of abilities, it is very important to rely on truth, on knowledge. In no case should you instill in a child that knowing something can be identical to a bad deed.

Most capable people are very jealous of the success of other people, especially classmates and close colleagues, rivalry for them is an eternal source of energy). That's why reliance on rivalry- should be in the arsenal of both parents and teachers.

Rivalry often breeds collaboration, and collaboration breeds rivalry. In communication, joint work, projects, discussions, the formation of many talented people takes place - a kind of "firing". Building on cooperation- this is also the thing that you should have in your pedagogical piggy bank.

If appropriate conditions for the development of abilities are not created, appropriate activities are not provided to children, sensitive periods for the development of certain abilities are missed, other equally important factors are not taken into account - abilities will not develop, and an irreversible loss of abilities may occur. For the development of abilities, a combination of various factors is important, here are some of them:

I. Psychological:

    sensitive periods of formation of functions: each child in his development goes through periods of increased sensitivity to certain influences, to the development of a particular type of activity; for example, it is known that a child from 0 to 3 years old develops oral speech and thinking intensively, and at 5-7 years old he is most ready to master reading, music, mathematics, sports, etc.;

    appropriate activity with the help of an adult (zone of proximal development, according to L. S. Vygotsky),

    increased motivation, interest.

II. Material:

    balanced nutrition (eggs, meat, milk, cottage cheese, cheese, vegetables, fruits);

    the presence of complex toys, instruments (including musical ones), paints, albums, a computer, etc.

III. Social:

    parents (mother);

    educators;

  • teaching methods.

3. On the physiological basis of abilities. What is the physiological basis of abilities? There are many conflicting points of view, many hypotheses.

I will introduce you to the discoveries of Professor, Doctor of Biological Sciences Vladimir Pavlovich Efroimson (1908 - 1989), who belonged to the detachment of the oldest Soviet "geneticists-first conscripts" of the famous Moscow school of N.K. Koltsov. His great work (doctoral dissertation) is called "Biosocial Factors of Increased Mental Activity".

It is dedicated to genius - one of the most amazing phenomena inherent in the human race. This is an attempt by a great natural scientist, biologist, geneticist to find an approach to the natural science explanation of the mystery of genius.

Who is a genius?

Genius does what it must; talent does what it can.

Goethe wrote: "And if you do not have this -" Die, but become! "- then you are only a mournful guest on a gloomy earth."

The frequency of the emergence of potential geniuses and remarkable talents is practically the same at all times, among all nationalities and peoples: one genius for 2-3 thousand, maybe for 10 thousand people. But this is the frequency of the birth of potential geniuses. There are much fewer people who have developed and realized themselves enough to get at least a high rating. O'Henry, for example, has a story about how God was asked to point to the most brilliant commander of all times and peoples. And he pointed to a poor English shoemaker who was poring over old shoes. In this shoemaker, the greatest military genius died without showing himself.

In life, the frequency of those realized to the level of recognition of their creations and deeds as brilliant is 1 person in 5-10 million people.

This is the topic of a separate lecture, because here it is necessary to answer many questions: are geniuses needed? What prevents brilliant people from realizing their natural inclinations?

Diderot wrote: "Genius falls from the sky, and for one time when he meets the gates of the palace, there are 100 thousand cases when he falls past."

The very first proposition is that geniuses are born, first of all, innate talents and abilities are needed to become a genius, that is, inclinations (their combinations are endless).

Efroimson identifies 5 "stigmas" of genius, but precedes their listing with the following thesis: "A good mother is a masterpiece of nature."

It is the mother and maternal love that is the decisive factor in the development of a genius (for example, the fate of George Washington).

The childhood and youth of geniuses is a story of restraint, discipline and organization, shaped by maternal attention.

The role of the mother is also great in the formation of value attitudes.

Efroimson considers flexibility, resilience and energy to be innate properties.

Curiosity, curiosity, the exploratory instinct disappear by themselves as phenomena of the highest degree of age, so how much flexibility, perseverance must be shown, how much energy must be expended by the child in order to preserve those features that are associated with creative curiosity.

Efroimson "selected" world-renowned geniuses. There were 400 of them. Among them, too, there is a "table of ranks". He noticed that among the greats of this world quite often (more often than among other people) there are some hereditary diseases.

1. Geniuses are ten times more likely than the normal population to have a hereditarily fixed elevated level of uric acid in the blood. Elevated levels of urates (salts of uric acid) lead to gout. Gout is markedly different from all arthritis and rheumatism: the accumulation of crystals of uric acid salts in the tissues is determined by touch, inflammation occurs around these deposits and the earliest and most frequent occurrence of acute pain in thumb legs, which is almost absent when other salts are deposited.

E. Orovan established in 1956 that uric acid, the excess of which in the blood leads to gout, is very close in its chemical nature (structural formula) to such well-known mental stimulants as caffeine and theobromine (contained in coffee and tea) . The accumulation of uric acid in the blood serves to stimulate brain activity.

The body normally contains about 1 gram of uric acid. In the body of gout it contains 20 - 30 grams.

If an elevated level of urate in the blood is not accompanied by gout, then this condition is commonly called hyperuricemia. Efroimson's list includes several genius gouty people: Giovanni Medici, Cosimo the Elder, Lorenzo the Magnificent, Thomas More, Erasmus of Rotterdam, Mazarin, Churchill, Benjamin Franklin, Ivan III, Ivan the Terrible, Boris Godunov, I.S. Turgenev, Beethoven - a typical gouty trait appeared throughout his life - a complete disregard for everything that was not relevant to the case, to music, to creativity, even sublimation of love by creativity; Michelangello, Bernard Baruch, Rubens, Rembrandt, Renoir, Fielding, Stendhal, Maupassant, Pushkin and others. Of course, gout alone is not enough. Giftedness is required.

2. Hereditary form of disproportionate gigantism - Marfan's syndrome. This syndrome is characterized by very long, thin limbs with a short lean body, large hands and feet, subluxation of the lens, aortic aneurysm and an increased release of catecholamines - natural substances, some of which are adrenal hormones (adrenaline, norepinephrine and some others). A particularly powerful release of catecholamines occurs during stress (strong mental and physical stress, which allows the body to overcome a huge level of physical and mental stress).

But under stress, there is a simultaneous release of adrenaline into the blood, while with Marfan's syndrome, the amount of catecholamines in the blood is constantly increased. Talented, gifted owners of the Marfan syndrome are distinguished by great energy and the ability for intense and prolonged intellectual work.

Marfan's syndrome is the rarest. It occurs 1 time per 100,000 births. Among 400 geniuses with this syndrome, 9 people: ichthyologist Nikolsky, Chukovsky, de Gaulle, Liddel Hart, Andersen, Lincoln, Tesla, Abbe, Kuchelbecker.

3. Androgenic (also hormonal) mechanism of stimulation of mental activity - Morris syndrome. This is "testicular feminization" - a very rare hereditary syndrome (one case in 20 - 50 thousand births). It is caused by the presence of a male set of chromosomes, which causes the formation of the testes, usually well palpable in the form of a slight inguinal hernia in women. But with a male set of chromosomes, there is a hereditary immunity of somatic tissues to male sex hormones, which normally should affect these tissues. As a result, a slender, strong, beautiful woman develops, but with no monthly ailments and is barren. The owners of Morris syndrome have mental energy, physical endurance and strength (for example, Joan of Arc - by the end of the 19th century, 2117 major works were dedicated to her, in particular, 600 great poems, 200 dramas, 16 operas).

Therefore, an increased amount of androgens in the blood can have a tonic, doping effect. In men, this phenomenon is called hyperandrogenism. Hyperandrogenism was noted in Peter I, Byron, Pushkin, Lermontov, Alfred de Musset, Balzac, Heine, Leo Tolstoy. In many of them, increased sexual tone persisted until old age (Goethe). And if the biographies of many remarkable figures testify to their complete rejection of sex, then in these cases it is most often necessary to speak of a clear sublimation of sexual desire and its translation into creative energy (Kant, Beethoven).

Abstinence at high sexual strength is associated with creative inspiration. There is a well-known saying: “God does not speak from a prophet who knows a woman for 77 days.”

4. On the basis of manic-depressive psychosis, cyclothymic character accentuation. Cyclothymics (unlike schizotimics) are characterized by a more or less regular alternation of different phases of mood, physical and mental tone. Phases of recovery, energetic activity, optimism and self-confidence are replaced by phases of a decrease in general tone, decreased activity, relaxation, deterioration in mood, pessimism, up to suicide: Van Gogh, Diesel, Roosevelt, Churchill, Goethe, Linnaeus, Coldridge, Pushkin, Gogol , L. Tolstoy (a descendant of Pushkin), Schumann, Saint-Simon, Auguste Comte, Garshin, Dickens, Hemingway, Luther. It is known that the hypomanic form and depression usually occurs in 4 people per 1,000. In Efroimson's list of geniuses, this figure is at least 10 times higher - 4 people out of 100. Melancholy, periods of despair, and suicide attempts are noted in their biographies.

A. S. Pushkin immediately notes the presence of 3 "stigmas" of genius: gout, hyperandrogenism, cyclothymic accentuation of character.

Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol was also a hypomanic cyclothymic. Everything he wrote is from 20 to 32 years old, and every spring and summer he was in a state of severe depression. Pushkin did not like spring and summer, because, unlike most people, cyclothymics have a sharp drop in mood and performance in spring and summer, clearly rising in autumn. This seasonality is very characteristic of Pushkin and Gogol. L. Tolstoy had depressions from 2 to 7 years.

5. The fifth "stigma" of genius is the size of the forehead, the height of the forehead.

Of course, a large forehead in itself does not guarantee the presence of high intelligence, but there is no doubt that the predominant development of the brain and especially its frontal regions fully legitimizes the problem of the existence of some connection between a disproportionately large forehead, a large head with the level of intelligence, with genius, talent (no need to be embarrassed by the existence of giant-headed hydrocephalus idiots). These are Marx, Lenin, Engels, Beethoven, Liszt, Napoleon, Shakespeare, Voltaire, Goethe, Anton Rubinstein, Kant, Darwin, Lomonosov, Mendel.

Thus, some conclusions can be drawn. At the moment, in science there is still no exact data on what abilities and inclinations are, what they consist of. Perhaps the makings, these are some properties nervous system- the degree of general activity, increased sensitivity of nervous structures, etc. Perhaps this is some kind of special predisposition, for example, to the perception of sounds, colors, spatial forms, etc. The extent to which the deposit manifests itself and takes shape depends on the conditions of the individual development. Based on the results of this development, i.e., on the basis of available capacity, it is impossible to say what the "contribution" of the deposit was. So far, there are no ways to determine the degree of participation of the genotypic factor in the development of abilities.

The formation and development of abilities is associated with the passage of the child through various sensitive periods with possible learning during these periods by the type of "imprinting". In gifted children, it is possible to synchronize several sensitive periods, usually replacing each other, then the possibilities for developing their abilities increase many times over.

An integral component of abilities is increased motivation. It provides intense yet naturally organized activities necessary for the development of abilities.

The Communist Party and the Soviet state paid great attention to protecting the health of the younger generation, considering this as the most important task of the state. Created in the USSR government systems health protection of children and adolescents, protection of motherhood and childhood. It is characteristic that in pre-revolutionary Russia there were only 600 children's doctors, and in 1976 there were more than 96 thousand. The Constitution of the USSR guarantees the implementation of special measures for labor protection and women's health; creation of conditions allowing women to combine work with motherhood; legal protection, material and moral support for motherhood and childhood.

In the pediatric service, the leading principle of the organization of Soviet health care, as a preventive orientation, is especially vividly realized. In the organization of child protection, clinical examination is especially mandatory, which embodies the synthesis of preventive and curative medicine.

A constant and continuous process of introducing scientific achievements into the practice of children's healthcare is carried out simultaneously with the improvement of the entire healthcare organization system childhood. In the early stages of the organization of medical care for children, children's consultations were created, which in 1948 were merged with children's outpatient clinics into a single children's clinic. Specialized assistance is being developed, specialized departments are being organized, in which diagnostics, treatment, nursing of sick children are firmly established at a high level, departments are being created intensive care and resuscitation, this is combined with the strengthening of the main link in all medical and preventive work - the children's polyclinic.

The tendency of the staged treatment of sick children with chronic diseases is noticeably increasing: polyclinic - hospital - sanatorium. Of particular importance in preventive work among the child population is the development of a network of medical genetic services.

Much attention is paid to the training of paramedical personnel for children's hospitals. Textbooks and monographs are published. Many works of Soviet pediatricians have been translated into foreign languages. In the 60s. 20th century a ten-volume manual on pediatrics was published, which reflects the main achievements of Soviet pediatric science and healthcare practice

Conclusion.

Soviet clinical medicine is developing in clinical-physiological and preventive directions. At a new, higher level of development, there are previously discovered diagnostic methods and technical equipment of a clinician.

The achievements of Soviet medicine are great in all manifestations - in its connections with natural science, its philosophical dialectical-materialist concepts, the successes of science, the creation of numerous large scientific medical schools, wide practical, preventive activities, the development of public initiatives, the activities of societies, congresses, medical periodicals, involvement of workers in the cause of protecting the health of the people.

medical science and healthcare are inextricably linked with each other. The state character of Soviet health care largely determines the possibilities and ways of developing medical science.

HELL. Gradovsky emphasized the political meaning of the concept of "self-government". He was convinced that the state, transferring some of its functions to local governments, is obliged to provide them with the opportunity to exercise an "act of power" (that is, to act on the rights of state power). He advocated granting the zemstvos, within the limits determined by law, independence and powers of authority1.

V. P. Bezobrazov interpreted bureaucratic and self-governing institutions as "double organs of the same state organism, different forms of the same power." He saw the main drawback of the Regulations of 1864 in the fact that zemstvo institutions were not introduced into the general system of state administration, but were placed “beside it ...” According to V.P. Bezobrazov, zemstvo bodies were given “a lot of will and no power ". He attributed their weakness to their lack of "government" rights.

B.N. Chicherin interpreted zemstvos as legal entities that the state establishes to meet common needs. He credited them with the importance of social associations, which are governed "by state-issued laws and are under the control of state power, but exist to satisfy the special interests of famous persons or localities." B.N. Chicherin held the idea that the state benefits by acquiring an assistant in the person of local self-government. It "relieves him of an unnecessary burden, performing what without his help would have fallen on his own organs." In case of insufficient efficiency of the activities of zemstvo institutions, “the state can, without taking matters into its own hands, come to the rescue ... or fill in the gaps with its own institutions, not in the form of a replacement, but in the form of completing and improving the public initiative”3.

Certain influence in the XIX century. used the legal theory that arose on the basis of the state theory of local self-government. Its supporters reduced the essence of local self-government to one main feature - self-governing units are public legal entities separate from the state. They believed that the rights of local self-government bodies are inalienable and inviolable for the state. Self-government bodies, in their opinion, carry out the will not of the state, but of local communities. Communities have special goals and interests that differ from the goals and interests of the state. However, this theory had a number of weaknesses:

Þ the inviolability of the rights of local self-government bodies exists only for specific administrative bodies, but not for the state itself, which has the right to legislatively change them or completely take them away;


Þ self-governing units, being subjects of the rights granted to them, as well as public administration bodies, are subject to government control;

Þ It is impossible to determine the criteria for determining which functions performed by self-government bodies correspond to their own interests, and which - to the interests of the state (the social theory of self-government also sought to distinguish between these two areas).

The famous Russian jurist N.I. Lazarevsky believed that each of the theories discussed above is correct “in the sense that it points to a feature that occurs in self-governing units and is essential for them, but each of these theories was wrong in that it elevated the feature indicated by it to the main and exceptional". Based on these considerations, he formulated comprehensive definition of the essence of local self-government as a form of decentralized state administration, in which "in one way or another, both real independence from the crown administration and the connection of these bodies with local population"1.

The dual nature of municipal activities (independence in local affairs and the implementation of certain state functions at the local level) is reflected in theories of dualism of municipal government. According to this theory, municipal bodies, in exercising appropriate managerial functions, go beyond local interests and, therefore, should act as an instrument of public administration.

At the core social service theories Emphasis is placed on the implementation by municipalities of one of their main tasks: offering services to their residents, organizing services for the population. The main goal of all municipal activities, this theory calls the well-being of the inhabitants of the commune.

Most modern scholars interpret local self-government as a relatively decentralized form of local government. In legal theory, local government is usually viewed through the prism of such concepts as deconcentration and decentralization.

Thus, the well-known French jurist J. Wedel understands deconcentration as an organizational technique, which consists in the transfer important rights decision-making by representatives of the central government, placed at the head of various administrative districts or public services.

Distinguish between vertical and horizontal deconcentration. Within the framework of the first, all the powers to represent the interests of the central authorities at the local level are transferred to only one state official (as a result, deconcentration in the center is sometimes accompanied by a concentration of power on the ground), and within the framework of the second, several “power centers” are formed at the local level with the distribution of responsibilities according to sectoral principle.

Decentralization, J. Vedel notes, consists in the transfer of decision-making rights not just to representatives of the central government, but to bodies that are not hierarchically subordinate to the central authorities and are often elected by interested citizens1.

Thus, deconcentration and decentralization, being two types of transfer of power from the center to the places, have significant differences. Deconcentration- it is only a technique of government, which in itself is not equivalent to democracy, since it keeps the entire administration at the disposal of the central government or its representatives. The deconcentration reforms, G. Braban points out, have a managerial, rather than a political meaning: geographically, the administrative apparatus approaches the citizens, but they themselves are not endowed with any power2.

At decentralization there is a direct alienation of the powers of the state as a legal entity in favor of another legal entity, which is the local management team.

He wrote about the advantages of a decentralized state over a centralized one in the first half of the 19th century. A. de Tocqueville in "Democracy in America"3. He argued that the government, acting as the sole guarantor and arbiter of people's happiness, creates only the illusion of its

omnipotence in solving all problems. He has no choice but to take on the burden of thinking for everyone and overcoming all difficulties himself.

The position on the greater efficiency of decentralized public administration systems is confirmed by the findings of modern science, in particular general theory systems L. von Bertalanffy and evolutionary theory J. Piaget. The latter substantiated the thesis that any systems - physical, biological and social - are self-regulating. Self-regulation acts as a set of system actions aimed at its self-preservation and development. The more complex and dynamic the processes in which any system is included, the greater the degree of freedom it must have in order to respond in a timely manner and adapt to ongoing changes and maintain stability. There is only one effective solution to this problem - the expansion of the independence of subsystems within the viability of the system as a whole. For socio-political systems, this means weakening the dictate "from above", the development of self-government, primarily regional and local, with the simultaneous democratization of governance.

Thus, the local government is responsible two main social needs: firstly, the realization of the right of citizens to participate in the management public affairs and secondly, the creation of effective local authorities capable of satisfying both the vital needs of the population and the interests of national development. In this regard, the ideas of A. de Tocqueville that the initial source of power is by no means the state and not even the people, but voluntarily uniting individuals who manage their own affairs, are extremely important. It is under such conditions that people develop a true civic consciousness, a sense of duty and responsibility, the ability to measure their needs with the needs of their neighbors, and to coordinate interests. The ideal of A. de Tocqueville was a society functioning as a set of many free and self-governing associations and communities.

In his essay “Democracy in America,” he wrote: “Communal institutions ... open the way for the people to freedom and teach them to use this freedom, to enjoy its peaceful character. Without communal institutions, a nation may form a free government, but it will never acquire a true spirit of freedom. Transient passions, momentary interests, random circumstances can only create the appearance of independence, but despotism, driven into the social organism, will sooner or later reappear on the surface.

How relevant this warning is for the young Russian democracy! Totalitarianism, driven into the social organism, manifested itself in such hypertrophied forms that little remains in practice of the constitutional principle of local self-government.

Independently solving local problems under their own responsibility, local governments expect from government agencies management of the “rules of the game”, assistance in replenishing local resources if they are not enough to organize life in accordance with minimum social standards. The legal space in which local self-government would normally function, its material and financial support was formed in Western countries over many decades, creating favorable legal conditions for the life of the local community. This is a long evolutionary path of development of local self-government, and their experience requires careful study.

Analyzing the past and present of local self-government, we can conclude that gradually, taking into account historical, geographical, political and cultural traditions, three models were most often used: Anglo-Saxon (English), continental (French) and mixed (hybrid). What is the basis for the vision and theoretical understanding of these models, and what are the methodological prerequisites for substantiating the Russian model?

In Great Britain - the birthplace of classical municipal forms - there was type of local government, called Anglo-Saxon. One of the characteristic features of this system is the absence of plenipotentiary representatives of the government in the localities who take care of local elected bodies. The municipalities are regarded as autonomous entities exercising the power vested in them by Parliament. In the 19th century In the UK, the principle has been established that municipal bodies can only perform those functions that they are expressly permitted by law. This predetermined the role of the British Parliament in the formation of municipal law. The legal framework for municipal government was created by private and local statutes adopted by Parliament, defining the powers of municipal bodies, the basis of their relationship with central authorities. From 1689 to 1832 more than 200 such acts were passed by Parliament, which formed the basis for the adoption in 1834 of the law on the guardianship of the poor, which is considered the act that marked the beginning of the modern system of local government. This act provided for the creation of a management system that constantly works with a paid apparatus and has become the main activity of all local authorities. Municipalities received the right to appoint officials, to carry out various activities related to the elimination of poverty. In 1835, the Municipal Corporations Act basically established legal status 178 cities in England and Wales. This act provided for the election of municipal councilors, publicity of meetings, etc. This and subsequent acts created the modern system of British municipal bodies1.

Along with the Anglo-Saxon system of local self-government, a number of foreign states have a municipal system, which basically has a continental (French) model of local government. The special principles of the organization of self-government in France, laid down in late XVIII- the beginning of the 19th century, differed significantly from the principles underlying the organization of local government in England. France has always been characterized by a high degree of centralization of local government and self-government. This was manifested in the development of a system of administrative control of the central government over local authorities, bureaucratic subordination in relations between the center and places, that is, the continental model represents a hierarchical pyramid through which various directives and information are transmitted and within which a whole network of agents is actively working for the central authorities on places.

Along with Anglo-Saxon and french models local government as an independent municipal system usually allocate local (municipal) self-government in Germany (mixed model). Self-government, according to modern German doctrine, means that state tasks are solved by legal entities of public law. In other words, the state delegates some of its functions to self-government bodies. The federation and the lands, therefore, are not the only subjects of state administration: communities and regions perform the functions assigned to them either as institutions of self-government, or on behalf of the state at the behest of the state body within the framework of the functions delegated to them. In Germany there is no federal law on local authorities: the fundamental principles and principles of self-government are set out in article 28 of the Basic Law. The status of communities in Germany characterizes the following provisions: the community performs all administrative functions on its territory under its own responsibility, except in cases where the execution of these functions is entrusted to other management structures by law; the community regulates the scope of its activities by means of a charter, which must not contradict the law; the community has the right to independently solve problems at the local level under its own responsibility, but in accordance with the laws.

Certain specific qualities of the municipal organization are also distinguished by such countries as Italy and Japan: the governor of the Japanese prefecture, elected by the local

population and is considered the head of the local administration, performs a number of nationwide functions1.

A comparative legal analysis of the differences in the above models of local government organization in developed countries allows us to conclude that these differences are not of a fundamental nature. There has even been a certain rapprochement between them, taking into account the experience of implementing municipal reforms in France and Great Britain, which began in the 1980s.

In addition, the historical experience of mankind shows that the most stable model is a self-governing society, where “each individual is primarily responsible for solving his own problems, voluntarily uniting with other individuals, as well as participating in organizations and relationships within the limits and under the conditions established by the constitutions. and other mutual agreements of people and accepted by the relevant authorities "2. This resolves the main essential contradiction between the objective necessity of interaction between people within the state in the implementation public interest, on the one hand, and self-realization of their personal potential, their abilities, on the other, in order to create favorable living conditions in the eco-dialogue of man and nature.

Public administration and local self-government are two sides of the social contradiction between the need for centralization and decentralization of power, where local self-government is the leading party. And proof of that - the well-known fact of the emergence of the state and public administration on the basis of community administration.

So, tribal community management in Russian lands in the 7th-10th centuries. carried out at tribal meetings which gradually transformed in rural gatherings, as well as in city councils.

For example, out of 50 princes who occupied the Kiev throne, 14 were invited in the evening1, for the period from 1126 to 1400. The Novgorod veche elected 275 posadniks from among the most powerful boyar families and more than 80 princes. The Council of Masters was elected in Novgorod, as well as the Thousand Council. At meetings of districts (ends) and streets of the city, Konchan and street elders were elected. Citing the Novgorod Veche as naturally developing elements of self-government, the author is far from idealizing it as one of the most democratic institutions in the history of society, since the appeal to the masses has always been an additional tool of power, a decoration for the appearance of citizens' participation in decision-making. The first known legal codes Russkaya Pravda, Pravda Yaroslavichi, Long Russian Pravda, as well as the annals The Tale of Bygone Years, Belozersk Letter and others bear the seal of community administration.

With the beginning of the unification of Russian lands in the XV century. a state power strictly regulated from above is formed. Under these conditions, elements of self-government remained almost unchanged in rural communities and parts, city streets (posads). In large settlements and cities, governors are gradually replaced by a system of local state institutions (gubernias) and officials (city clerks). In the middle of the XVI century. as a result of the zemstvo reform in counties where there was still no landownership, the peasants of the Black Hundreds and palace lands, as well as townspeople, received the right to choose elders (“favorite heads”) and kissers, zemstvo judges and clerks (“best people”) from their midst. The peasant community, as before, elected the sots, the fifties, on whom the elders and kissers relied in their activities. Gradually, elected local bodies, falling under the supervision of the voivode, were the last to turn into state employees.

The reforms of Peter I bore the imprint of the influence of Western Europe. In 1699, the townspeople received the right to elect burgomasters from among themselves. In 1718 Peter I ordered to restore the right of local city estate management, and in 1723-1724. city ​​magistrates and town halls were created. However, these bodies, unlike those in Western Europe, were tightly controlled by government officials and soon after the death of Peter the Great, they “rooted” into the structure of the Russian state.

In 1775, the government carried out a new reform of local government based on the decentralization of power, as a result of which local state institutions received greater powers. Almost simultaneously, the reform of urban self-government began in accordance with the "deed on the rights and benefits of cities Russian Empire". This reform divided urban population into 6 class ranks, the city assembly was the primary body of class self-government in the city. Granting the right to elect and be elected was regulated by age and property qualifications.

“The city assembly elected the mayor, burgomasters and ratmans to the magistrate, elders, judges of verbal courts, assessors from the city class to general and verbal institutions”1. The assembly also elected the administrative body of estate self-government - the General City Duma. These innovations were then used in the course of the zemstvo reform of 1864, since the reform did not work for long in the editorial office of the government of Catherine II - until 1798, when the city estate administration was connected with the police departments.

In the first half of the XIX century. self-government in cities was going through a crisis associated with the tightening of the police and supervisory functions of the state. Such representative bodies as city deputy assemblies, as well as general dumas, ceased to exist. Their members were used for individual assignments by the Six-voice Duma, whose functions included supervision of trade in the bazaars and the improvement of the city under the supervision of the governor. “The underestimated importance of city self-government bodies caused the indifference of the city estates to service in estate institutions and evasion from it”2.

The severity and sluggishness of the state machine, the manifestation of the most inert features of bureaucracy, the evasion of the nobility and merchants from civil service, as well as noticeable democratic changes and their results in Western Europe, forced the Russian government to look for ways to reform the public administration system.

After the peasant reform of 1861, it became necessary to revive everywhere rural community self-government. Peasant class institutions were created for the peasants. The rural society at the gathering elected the village headman, the tax collector, sots, tenths (the latter performed supervisory and police functions). The volost gathering elected the volost foreman, the volost court, as well as representatives to the preliminary congress for the election of vowels to the county village assembly, and resolved the economic problems of the volost. As a representative body there was a volost board.

Thus, the zemstvo and city reforms of 1864-1870. were based on the historical experience of communal and city self-government in Russia, and also relied on borrowings from Western European experience. Moreover, its relative success is explained by the fact that the reformers did not blindly copy Western models, but introduced structures that were understandable to the people and “suitable for work in specific socio-economic and political conditions”3.

The current champions of the revival of zemstvo traditions in the organization of local self-government in Russian Federation along with positive aspects - the desire to rely on domestic roots, the desire to provide residents of towns, villages, villages, cities with broad powers to take the initiative, simplicity and accessibility of the presentation of projects

normative documents- there are also shortcomings: the idealization of the Zemstvo, reliance on obsolete dubious democratic institutions and an attempt to transfer them to the modern soil of Russia, which is closer to the experience of recent times, the experience of the work of the Soviets.

Attempts to justify the formation of representative bodies on a class basis, the unwillingness to take into account the national and cultural characteristics of the regions of the Russian Federation, etc., are also at odds with the spirit of the times. At the same time, it is overlooked that the conditions for the formation of zemstvo institutions, the procedure for appointing and approving officials, were strictly regulated and controlled by the state in the person of governors and presences1.

The assertion of the chairman of the Russian zemstvo movement, E. Panina, that “the zemstvos were never built according to the national or party principle, but were all-class representation bodies” is surprising. As an example that casts doubt on the statement, let us turn to the documents: in the Regulations on the provincial and district zemstvo administration in Art. 16, note 3, we read: “From now on, until the revision of the instructions in force about them, they are not allowed to participate in Zemstvo election meetings and congresses”3.

Further, in the Nominal Supreme Decree of March 14, 1911 “On the extension of the Regulations on zemstvo institutions to the Volyn, Kiev, Vitebsk, Minsk, Mogilev and Polish provinces”, paragraph 10 reads: “In the Dvina, Lucinsk and Riga districts, the Vitebsk province in the first branches of the zemstvo electoral assembly and zemstvo electoral congresses include persons of Russian origin, the second - other persons; in the remaining counties of the Vitebsk province and in the counties of the Volyn, Kiev, Minsk, Mogilev and Podolsk provinces, the first sections include persons who have the right to participate in meetings or congresses, according to their affiliation, with the exception of persons of Polish origin, and the second - persons of Polish origin "4 .

The same is in the note to item 10, and to item 11 in relation to the congresses elected by the volost assembly5.

Similar legalizations are available in the Regulations on the public administration of cities. L.E. also speaks about this. Lapteva: “At the request of the governor, persons recognized as unreliable were to be removed from office”1.

In conclusion, the attention of all Zemstvo idealists should be drawn to the Provisional Regulations on the Volost Zemstvo Administration of 1917, which is built on much more democratic principles.

Other extreme point The view on the use of world historical experience is manifested in the views of modern “Westerners”, who tend to take the Anglo-American, German or French experience as the basis for organizing the system of local self-government in the Russian Federation and demonstrate a desire to see in our laws a mirror repetition of the European Charter of Local Self-Government.

Meanwhile, Russian local self-government has a rather large and contradictory experience. Since the emergence of statehood in Rus', it remained unchanged for a long time only in rural communities in certain regions of the country and experienced constant oppression from the central authorities.

The inclusion of local governments in the system of state bodies in Soviet period by no means deprived local government of the foundations of historical experience, did not destroy, as some jurists, historians and politicians are trying to prove, the principles of organizing local self-government, limiting them to the ability of citizens to independently resolve local issues. The dependence of local self-government on the desire or unwillingness of state bodies to “give it free rein” is present today just as it was 500, 200 or 70 years ago. Only the importance of local self-government and the dependence of the political and economic power of the state on the integrity, development and organization of its forms have increased.

However, the experience of the development of civilization convinces us of the correctness of the Frenchman A. de Tocqueville, who said more than 100 years ago that “communal institutions do for freedom what an elementary school does for science; they make it accessible to the people, allow them to eat its fruits and get used to using it. A nation can introduce free government without communal institutions, but it will not have the spirit of freedom.

Noting the need to achieve economic and political freedom as the basis for the prosperity of society - including through the development of local self-government - one should keep in mind: a) Russia is a unique country; b) Russia has its own historical experience of self-government in the form of rural communities, urban (posad) public administration, zemstvo institutions and Soviets; c) it is impossible not to take into account the existing system of local government; d) the process of reforming the system of local self-government cannot be completed by a command from above or within the established time frame, since it is the result of a certain evolution, an indicator of the state's departure from the administrative-command management system and, undoubtedly, evidence of the maturity of citizens who are ready to take full power and responsibility for solving local affairs;

e) a lot of useful things can be learned from the experience of other peoples, if you show the ability to learn, critically perceive it in relation to the conditions of the Russian Federation.

It would seem that the traditions of local self-government in pre-revolutionary Russia should have been developed in the practice of state building in Soviet Russia. After all, the socialist revolution, according to K. Marx, marks the process of the reverse absorption of state power by society. And in the organization of local self-government, the problem of bringing power closer to the people is most clearly expressed.

However, the idea of ​​local self-government, which implies a certain decentralization of power, the independence of self-government bodies, came into conflict with the practical tasks of the state. proletarian dictatorship, which by its very nature is a centralized state.

The basis for the organization of local power was the principle of the unity of the system of Soviets as bodies of state power with strict subordination of lower bodies to higher ones. All Soviets (including local ones) acted as links in a single system, the highest organizational principle of which was democratic centralism, which formally allows for the independence of places, but in reality manifests itself in the centralization and concentration of power in the highest echelons of the system of state bodies. Municipalism was rejected as a bourgeois principle unacceptable to the Soviet state.

So, the study of the genesis and conceptual models of local communities allows us to more clearly present the content of municipal science, formulate its modern theory and methodology, clarify the scientific foundations of municipal science and the modern system of training municipal government personnel. These issues are of particular relevance, but require additional efforts, extraordinary approaches, without which there can be no effective municipal government.
