The article deals with unveiling the peculiarities of decentralization process of public authority in the states of Central Europe (on the examples of the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic). The scientific and theoretical interest in this issue is caused by the necessity of improvement (actual renewal) of a number of basic institutions of democracy and local government in Ukraine. The methodological basis of the investigation involves a set of scientific research methods which are typical of legal science in general and the theory of the state and law in particular. To solve the scientific task there were used general philosophical approaches, general scientific and special judicial methods of research, particularly: formal-juridical and comparative legal methods. Decentralization (the vertical division of power) has become one of the key ideas of deepening democracy in the countries of Central Europe at the second stage of the constitutional reforming. In the reform of this direction they adhered to the standards of the European Charter of Local Self-Government 1985 as well as to the requirements of the European Union, connected with the membership in it. The states of Central Europe (the Czech Republic and Slovakia in particular) implement the mentioned norms of the European Charter of Local Self-Government related to the consolidation of Law on Local self-government on the level of the Constitution and laws.
