The paper studies the problem of harmonization of relationship between the state and civil society institutions in the context of restoring public consent and confidence. The purpose of the article is to investigate the challenges of coordination of relations between the state and civil society institutions in public administration, to find the ways to increase social cohesion. To achieve this goal, general scientific and special research methods were used, in particularly, as follows: analysis and synthesis – in the study of theoretical discourse; categorial and etymological analysis – in clarifying the basic concepts of "civil society", "public administration"; the combination of retrospective, situational and perspective approaches made it possible to observe the institutionalization of civil society and its impact on public administration. It has been substantiated that with the formation of a civil society, a new period in the development of the state begins – the "modern representative state": nation-wide representative institutions of parliamentary type emerge and are established in the structure of state authorities. It is emphasized that, unlike the state, civil society is a horizontal system of various communications and relations between their associations, unions and communities. These connections are based on equality and personal initiative, including self-sufficiency. A civilized modern state is a social state governed by the rule of law, with developed institutions of representative democracy, with various forms of self-government, with public state activities, where all officials are subordinated to the law and are controlled by representative institutions, a number of administrative structures' senior officers are elected, and officials are responsible before a fair general court. The types and features of legitimacy of power are also considered in the paper. It has been substantiated that the role of legal culture of actors in the civil society is extremely important in the relations between the civil society institutions and the state.
