Hellebrandová, Lenka ; Tomeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Slach, Ondřej (referee) ; Jüptner, Petr (referee)
The main topic of the research was the evaluation of the effectiveness of local governance with an emphasis on the approaches of selected cities in the Czechia to financing local development. The basis is an analysis of the content of strategic documents, the definition of development policies, and their long-term financing (in the period 2002-2020), including the use of EU funds. In the next part, using media analysis of local online newspapers, local political conflicts concerning the budget in the surveyed cities were identified. The result is a proposed composite index of local government efficiency measuring four areas of efficiency - public participation, political stability, local development financing, and the role of the city in micro-regional development. Keywords: local a regional administration, effectiveness, comparison, selected municipalities, political and regional aspects
The Evaluation of Local/Regional Authority Activities in the Case of Ústecký region and Chomutov District
Hellebrandová, Lenka ; Tomeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Šlajchrt, Martin (referee)
This work deals with the issue of governance at the local level in selected municipalities in Ústecký region. Evaluating of governance in selected municipalities is based on analysis of their economy for the period 2002 - 2010. The emphasis is put on the success of municipalities in raising funds and solving problems of this region (unemployment, decline in industrial production, poor educational structure). These facts are confronted with the actual composition of councils and there are investigated differences between the access to the problems of individual municipalities or the governing political parties. Small municipalities are faced with a lack of funds, which leads to significant indebtedness. By contrast large cities are successful in obtaining grants from the EU and can fund various projects. Most of the investigated municipalities invested in building of sports and cultural centres instead supporting the active employment policy.
