The article deals with the issue of effective public administration in the conditions of unstable growth of the Russian economy. The priority of the management system for the development of the Russian economy was substantiated, shifting the emphasis on efficiency as a key economic function and goal. The existing classification of efficiency levels was analyzed. The methodology for studying public management is based on optimal organization of communication technologies. The organization process is based on a structural-functional approach. The research result is a new paradigm and concept of effective public administration allowing elimination of causes of decision-making asymmetry, reduction of conflicting decisions, creation of conditions for a mutually beneficial communication management system. The paradigm of effective public administration is presented as a model of causal relationships between and within subsystems, coordinating goals, causes, effects and results. The structural-functional approach to the concept of effective public administration is described using the structure of indicators reflecting the set of methodological provisions for its implementation. State models of development strategies and stages of their implementation were considered. The emphasis of development strategy models was shifted to the elimination of structural imbalances and their causes, development of the case of effective management decisions, optimal impact tools and a minimum level of required resources. Connecting functions between the paradigm and the concept of effective public administration were highlighted.

The article defines the self-sufficient urban socioeconomic space (SSUSES) and reveals its essence as a succession of phenomena, conditions, package of measures to achieve a certain result. The main target of SSUSES is the citizens' high life quality, achieved by: increasing incomes; improving health; raising the educational level; creating conditions conducive to the growth of people's self-respect; the formation of sufficient social, political, economic and institutional subsystems. This research identifies strategic and current benchmarks for ensuring SSUSES and defines criteria for achieving them; highlights a number of system methodology principles of the SSUSES and also defines an urban space as a multi-level structure of interacting elements combined into several level subsystems to achieve shared objectives. The implementation of a systematic approach in the SSUSES methodology is reduced to the study of urban education on the possibility of developing emergent and synergistic qualities, identifying the diverse links and mechanisms that ensure these qualities in a dynamic urban system. The system approach implementation's essence is described using the structure of SSUSES indicators, the totality of which is implemented in three stages and the corresponding strategy selection model. The process of implementing the mechanism, providing socio-economic potential increase, ensuring the possibility of urban selfdevelopment, is associated with an effective distribution of powers and responsibilities between republican and municipal authorities. Article demonstrates that the process of providing SSUSES is associated with the optimization of a multi-level structure of interacting elements combined into several-level subsystems to achieve shared objectives.
