Abstract:

This article examines administrative activity and the administrative act in the context of local self-government, placing particular emphasis on their dual — legal and managerial — nature. The study proceeds from the understanding that administrative activity is traditionally conceptual ized as state-authoritative and subordinate to the law; however, under contemporary conditions, it also functions as an instrument of public governance. The analysis is developed along three inter related dimensions — structural, functional, and organizational - managerial — which reveal the internal dynamics of administrative organization. Special attention is devoted to the administrative act as the classical legal form through which the executive and regulatory activity of local self-gov ernment bodies is realized. At the same time, its role as a managerial instrument for achieving public objectives is highlighted. The article argues that administrative activity within local self-government evolves in the borderline zone between authoritative law enforcement and public models of gover nance, which necessitates its conceptualization not only as a legal category but also as a managerial practice.
