Models of public management of gambling business in the world

The urgency of researching the issue of models of public gambling management in the world is explained by the need to study foreign experience to improve the legal regulation and tools of public management of the gambling market in Ukraine. The authors used philosophical, general scientific and special scientific methods of cognition. The authors highlight the following models of public administration: ban on gambling; permission to conduct gambling without restrictions, but the establishment of certain qualification, organisational, financial and other requirements; establishment of a state monopoly on the organization and conduct of gambling, which manifests itself in various forms. To develop proposals for improving public management of the gambling market in Ukraine, the authors identify the advantages of each of the selected models of public management of the gambling market used in different countries, including the United States, India, Denmark, Slovenia, France, Austria, Greece, Norway, Germany, Poland, Switzerland, Hungary. It is stated that the establishment of an absolute (total) ban on the organisation and conduct of gambling does not solve the problem of uncontrolled gambling and gambling addiction in society. The authors conclude that the introduction of the so-called third model of public administration in Ukraine, in which the state, acting on behalf of society and in the public interest, enters into a so-called social contract with gambling organisers, according to which socially harmful effects of gambling will be compensated financing of socially useful goals (good deeds)
