The article highlights the principles of local self-government in the conditions of martial law, starting from February 2014 and especially during the period of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation into the territory of Ukraine. The provisions of individual regulatory legal acts regulating the activities of local self-government bodies during the period of the special legal regime are considered. The article analyzes the key tasks facing local councils, executive committees and other self-government bodies in ensuring the vital activity of territorial communities, public safety, the functioning of critical infrastructure and social protection of the population.
Special attention is paid to the interaction of local authorities with military administrations, central government bodies and public associations in the context of joint coordination of efforts to support the state's defense capability. Institutional changes and the need for rapid adaptation of management processes to the challenges of wartime are identified. The role of local government in building community resilience, attracting resources for the restoration of damaged infrastructure and organizing humanitarian aid is investigated.
The article outlines the main problems faced by local governments in wartime, including resource constraints, personnel challenges, the need for rapid decision-making and implementation in crisis situations. It suggests ways to improve local governance mechanisms, including the introduction of digital technologies and strengthening the legal framework for effective work during martial law.
