Among all types of governing activities the most important one is state administration. That is caused by its main properties:

1. The governing impact of state administration rests on the state power. Its subject – the state - exerts the decisive influence on the character of interactions caused by this type of governing.

2. The state with the help of legislation sets fundamental general and typical rules (norms) of people behaviour in all spheres of social life and ensures it’s observance by it’s power. State governing extends throughout the whole society and even beyond its boundaries.

3. The state, being a complicated and many-folded social phenomenon and playing the role of the subject of administration, imparts to a state governing the property of a system. The presence of the state makes state administration purposeful, subordinated, concerted, coordinated, as well as rational and effective.

The structure of state bodies can be effective and stable only if it is supported by a system of municipal and local administration and self-administration. Practically all decisions of the state pass through local bodies of administration. People evaluate the state administration in the light of satisfying their necessities of life, namely: supply with food, good living conditions, social order, warmth, electrical energy and the like. Local administration possesses all signs of power, the main of which is that it’s decisions are obligatory for all citizens of a municipal formation. But at the same time local administration works within the laws adopted by the bodies of state power. On the one hand, the state delegates part of it’s authority to local bodies and on the other hand allows local bodies to carry out some social activities independently. To fulfil these responsibilities, local bodies have their own resources such as their own budget and municipal property. Municipal power is an elected body, representation of local population is obligatory.

From the point of view of theory and practice, state and municipal administration is:

1. The ability of achieving social aims using labour, intellect and motivation of people.

2. A type of activity consisting of guiding people and organizations.

3. A specific sphere of knowledge helping to carry out this activity.

4. A certain category of state officials engaged in administration.

5. A specific type of working activity.

6. A set of forms and methods through which a coordinated activity of people in the process of joint labour is accomplished.

Functions of managers in state and municipal administration are as follows:

- Analysis, evaluation and prognostication of development of political, social and economic processes;

- Objective information supplied to supreme leaders of the country, ministers, representative bodies, heads of administration about the state of affairs in the provinces;

- Rending consulting services to politicians on the basis of the analysis of the information and evaluation of alternative variants for decision-taking;

- Bringing to life laws, regulations and resolution adopted by official powers;

- Securing of high effectiveness of state and municipal administration;

- Reporting to superior officials and representative bodies about social and economic effectiveness;

- Solving day-to-day organizational problems.
