Abstract: The subject of our research is the mechanisms of development and functioning of local rural communities. We examine stable development of the rural region as a process of interaction between several elements: economy, population and resources, including human capital assets. We use the structural-functional approach as a methodological basis that allows for complex examination of the rural region development. Our main hypothesis which defines the research objective is a thesis that the most important mechanisms providing stable development of local rural communities can be represented as three key groups: productive-economic, socio-cultural and institutional. Intensive development of mixed economy against the decay in traditional forms of organization of agriculture leads to the diversification of socio-economic activity and changes in the rural way of life. These processes provide for the creation of effective instruments of innovative changes in local rural communities, maintenance of their socially oriented development and their transmission from the stability paradigm to the paradigm of rapid development. The proposed system of mechanisms and indicators can be applied to the process of rural regions development analysis.
