The article examines the main scientific approaches to clarifying the essence of the concept of the development of the political system of Ukraine in the conditions of digitalization, analyzes the peculiarities of the development of the political system of Ukraine. It was established that the current state of the political system of Ukraine is characterized as unstable, and political processes need improvement. The effectiveness of digitalization in the mechanism of ensuring the development of the political system has been proven, since thanks to its technologies, it is possible to ensure the transparency of the mechanisms of election of state authorities, the formation of an influential parliament, and the expansion of the sphere of competence of local self-government bodies on the basis of the maximum possible participation of the public in making relevant decisions.
