A kormányzati rendszer és a globális versenyképesség (A fejlesztő állam perspektívája)
Governmental System and Global Competitiveness (The Perspective of a Developing State)

Summary/Abstract: This paper deals with the performance of the public institutions based on the international rankings of the global competitiveness and according to the new EU paradigm, in which instead of GDP the term of social progress appears as the main criterion. In the last years there has been a big step ahead in the international social sciences towards the precise description and the performance evaluation of the state and government institutions, or in an even wider context, of all public institutions. This emerging new theoretical approach is, of necessity, at the same time comparative as well, so it helps us to evaluate the Hungarian situation better in the comparison with the similar states of our region. The paper tries to prove that the state and government system of institutions is the weakest point of the Hungarian competitiveness. Therefore the reason for the decline of the Hungarian economy can be found in the poor performance of the public institutions because of the missing institutional reforms.
