Formation of institutional provision of public administration of the transition to a circular economy in Ukraine in the conditions of deformation of gender models

Abstract. Introduction. Under the influence of the war in Ukraine and the economic instability caused by it, socio-demographic changes, migration and the need to restore human capital, especially in rural settlements, the processes of significant institutional shifts are intensifying and the need to modernize public administration institutions, including public service, is becoming more acute. In these conditions, the circular economy is becoming one of the key areas of sustainable development as a global trend in the evolution of society and a model that ensures the efficient use of resources, reducing losses, creating new jobs and stimulating local entrepreneurship. The purpose of the study is a theoretical and historical analysis of the formation of institutional support for public administration of the transition to a circular economy in Ukraine in conditions of deformation of gender models. Materials and methods. The materials of the study are: 1) publications of foreign founders and Ukrainian researchers of the theory of public administration, circular economy, etc.; 2) regulatory and legal support of different countries of the world; 3) statistical information. The following scientific methods were used in the study:1) content analysis of publications of foreign founders and Ukrainian researchers of public administration and circular economy, as well as the historical method in analyzing the evolution of the philosophy of the circular economy; 2) analysis of regulatory and legal documents of different countries and Ukraine, historical - in studying the evolution of the circular economy in the world, the experience of different countries of the world in the transition to a circular economy; 3) analysis and synthesis – in formulating the content of the category of deformation of gender models and its impact on the modernization of civil service institutions; 4) modeling – in developing a model of institutionalization of public administration. Results. The study revealed that the “linear model” of the economy still dominates in Ukraine today, while the concept of a circular economy in Ukraine as a component of state economic policy began to develop significantly only after 2018. The evolution of the circular economy in the world and the experience of different countries in the transition to a circular economy are summarized, and it is found that the EU is a world leader in the legal regulation of resource reuse. The category of “deformation of gender models” in Ukraine is defined as a systemic violation of the established balance of socio-economic, cultural and role relations between women and men, caused by the influence of crisis factors (in particular, war, mass migration, economic instability, etc.), which is negative in nature, leads to changes in traditional functions, employment models, social behavior and access to resources in society. A model of institutionalization of public administration during the transition to a circular economy is developed and proposed, taking into account the existing deformation of gender models. The proposed model reflects the management hierarchy, functional roles, and socio-institutional relationships. Prospects. Further scientific research is expected to develop scenarios for the development of territories, including rural ones, taking into account the transition to a circular economy.
