Abstract

The article studies and discusses the issue of absence of clear definition of the ‘monocity’ category in the normative legal base in the conditions of fairly commonness of monocities in the Russian Federation. Modern scientific approaches to the definition of ‘monocity’ are analyzed, its essential characteristics are considered. Synonymic categories used in Russia and abroad are presented. No generally accepted approaches to the definition were revealed, however the main elements of the definition were marked out. A universal interpretation of the concept of monoprofile municipal formation (monocity) was formed on the basis of the research; the main signs of monocity were marked out.
