GOAL SETTING IN STATE GOVERNANCE: ISSUES OF ACHIEVABILITY, RELEVANCE AND CONSISTENCY OF GOALS

There are quite a lot of scientific works devoted to the problems of goal setting in state governance. However, the corpus of the studied precedents has not been considered as a single object of study. It inspired to move from analysis to synthesis and try to suggest a typology of the revealed goal-setting problems, which was the main purpose of this study. As a result, five types of goal-setting problems were identified: issues of achievability of goals, irrelevance and inconsistency of goals, as well as incidents caused by managerial and institutional reasons. This article analyzes only the issues of achievability of goals, the irrelevance and inconsistency of goals. The problems of goal-setting in state governance, caused by managerial and institutional reasons, are expected to be investigated in the next work.
