The methodological grounds of the democratic governance process based on the analysis of domestic and foreign scientific experience of public administration science are considered in the article. The study aims to analyze and investigate the nature of the origin and use of the latest terminology of public administration, to offer their own approaches to adapting English definitions to existing terminology. Thus, for a long time since the accreditation of the science of public administration, some domestic researchers have implemented the experience of advanced European and American theories of public administration, doing so superficially, without taking into account the peculiarities of management processes. In a relatively short time, a large number of literally adapted concepts have appeared in the theory of public administration. In some places, some studies contain a significant number of English terms without translation into Ukrainian, simply with an explanation of what is meant by this or that concept. Since domestic public administration was based on the experience of authoritarian traditions, the methodological approaches to the terminology of key concepts differ significantly from the public administration practices of democracies in Europe and North America. In our country, for example, the state power – manages, hence the concept – management, respectively, in democratic countries, the state power is rather a service for providing administrative services to its citizens, or carries out administration. To understand the concept of "management", the most suitable English equivalent – "management", which in domestic economics is not even translated. Public administration of foreign interpretation is no longer management but administration, very often this term is used with the term "public". At the beginning of the XXI century in foreign theory another concept of public administration – "governance" is firmly entrenched, which has become a destroyer of peace in the terminology and methodology of domestic science of public administration. The concept of "governance" which in the domestic terminology of public administration science borders on the definition of two concepts of "governance" carries out a "revolution" of modern domestic theory of public administration and requires significant modernization of its methodology and conceptual apparatus.
