THE MUNICIPAL LEGAL AWARENESS: STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS by Denis O. Bobrovnyk

“…The author considers that, unlike municipal legal psychology, which is formed mainly spontaneously, depending on subjective events in municipal life and the experience of past generations, municipal legal ideology is formed in a systemic way as a result of: a) scientific (doctrinal), theoretical reflection of the municipal legal reality, b) based on the generalization and development of the most famous and significant municipal legal theories of the past and present; c) study of the main regularities of the formation, development and functioning of municipalism and its regulatory support and maintenance; d) study of the fundamental principles of municipalism, which are enshrined in international legal standards of local democracy; e) study of the basic principles of the state municipal policy. …”
