Attention applies on that, one hundred the problems of transformation of government service are above all things conditioned radical transformations of the state and embarks on basis that the state in general all anymore will be examined exactly as a specific instrument (method, mechanism) of organization of functioning of sociuma. It is underlined that state administration has an own specific and in a greater degree depends on the degree of development of society. A thesis is grounded in relation to that state administration is a specific type of activity of organs of the state, which is carried out by means of two types of such activity — executive and active and has an organizing influence in three public spheres — economic, social’nokul'turnoy and administrative. Specified on that government service, as difficult social phenomenon, can be examined as governmental service and as service civil. Attention applies on that in most cases government service is explained and as activity professional, that it is carried out by specially geared-up specialists. It is thus impossible to unite the phenomena “civil servants” and “bureaucracy”, which have different sense and explanation. The substantial features of concepts “Public management” and “public administration”, “state-administrative elite, are analysed”. It is underlined that government service must be considerable appearance by depolitizirovannoy, professional activity.

It is substantiated that since the public service is carried out by specially selected, professionally trained employees, civil servants, the following general remarks should be made: often when considering various aspects of the civil service, the term “state apparatus” is used. In fact, it should be borne in mind that this term has two main meanings: a) as a certain organizational structure; b) as a personnel structure of a certain structure in the system of civil service. We believe that the second meaning is more precise and concrete.
