When writing the article applied methods: analytical, dialectical, process, generalized, scientific. Scientific novelty – realization of powers of local self-government is considered as a closed, completed cycle, which is realized on the basis of cycles: «citizen – the state», «people – state», «cause – consequence», «beginning – end», «freedom – responsibility» «Justice – efficiency», «justice – force», «goal – results», «contradictions – harmony», «chaos – order», «unit (linear) – network»; criteria for evaluation of the closed cycle: social, economic, ecological, demographic, political, legal, informational, spiritual, moral, territorial, national, technological, etc. Each criterion has its own indicators, each indicator has its own measure (maximum, minimum, standard, fact). Practical significance – local self-government receives motivational mechanisms to improve local production, science obtains methodological tools for assessing the effectiveness of the ratio of state power and local selfgovernment.
