“…In this regard, it is reasonable to provide relevant sociological studies of the Ukrainian context. According to research, the majority of the population of Ukraine is convinced that the level of corruption in the country significantly increased during 2014(Democratic Initiatives Foundation, 2018a. However, international ratings, such as the Corruption Perception Index developed by Transparency International, which measures more objective characteristics, suggests otherwise (Transparency International, 2018).…”

The article examines the main problems that arise during the implementation of evidence-based policy. The author determines the understanding of the feasibility of evidence-based policy for high-quality policy implementation. The limitations facing the authors of the research are determined. Areas of policy research where external and ideological influence on the results obtained are highest have been identified. The author analyzes the biases of the worldview that are faced by policy researchers, and external influence that is exerted on them.The author concludes that researchers who hold different ideological views show a difference in perceptions of the world and politics. The risks faced by management bodies in the case of implementation of imperfect recommendations based on erroneous policy research are highlighted. The author notes that such risks arise from the overestimation of the ability to predict the future in political reality as scholars are exposed to the deceptive influence of research accuracy. Recommendations for improving the quality of research that become the basis for policy implementation are highlighted in the article. Arguments in favor of a more critical approach to the use of social data and the review of research results by scholars with different ideological views have been provided.

The postmodern administration redefines its role as 'instance of mediation' between the citizen and politics. Public administration has a double purpose; maintaining a political position of axiological neutrality, while showing the citizen transparency and encouragement to participate in all stages of the public decision, from adopting and implementing to its evaluation. In this paper, we will argue the importance of a public administration centred on ethical values. Public good, alongside justice, can be considered a constitutive ethical value of any type of public administration, and the values of equity transparency and responsibility, as ethical operational values of a contemporary public administration system. The constitutive values make necessary the emergence and functioning of a system of social institutionsin this case, those related to public administration. The ethical operational values are those values that manage the functioning of an institutional system and establish its limitations. We bring a series of arguments for replacing the distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic values with a distinction between constitutive and operational values, in the context of social-constructionist ethics development in public administration.
