Abstract

The author analyses the legal nature and essence of the administrative contract as a relevant tool for building relations in the sphere of public administration in order to develop doctrinal provisions for the development and improvement of this legal institution. The author comes to conclusions about the possibility to reassess in a new way the legal possibilities of the administrative contract in terms of achieving socially significant, public effects in the general context of the reform of the system of public administration.
