The island of Olib, one of the small Croatian islands, is a rural space of striking depopulation and economic regression. Centuries-long development dynamics within the framework of the Mediterranean polycultural production has been seriously disrupted by the deagrarianism and an intensive emigration. It has considerably weakened the demographic basis, which is the main factor of the socio-economic development. In the recent half-century period the way of life has changed radically, which, among other things, manifested also in the changes of island (rural) landscape. Arable areas are fewer and fewer, social fallow dominates, and the physiognomy of the only island settlement has also significantly changed. The appearance and functions of a traditional Mediterranean island settlement have been replaced by an urbanely nuanced "spatial mechanism", where newbuilt weekend houses and renewed old village homes, primarily intended for rest and recreation, have predominant importance.

The article is devoted to territorial public self-government as a mechanism of public participation in solving local issues and socio-economic development of municipalities. The study reveals a lack of relevant information on the number of organizations of territorial public self-government in the country. This does not allow to take into account their potential during planning the development of territories. The author analyzed the activities of organizations of territorial public self-government in the Vologda region, summarized the practice of initiative budgeting in Vologda and Cherepovets. The researcher attempted to explain the influence of organizations of territorial public self-government on socio-economic processes and the creation of social capital. In this connection, a list of indicators for assessing activities of organizations of territorial public self-government has been proposed. It is necessary to improve the efficiency of work with organizations of territorial public self-government in the region including through the creation of a coordination structure, resource centers and a pool of consultants. There is a need for further research on this topic.
