MANAGEMENT SPECIFICITIES AND DEVIATIONS IN THE LOCAL SECTOR - CITY OF KASTAV: CASE ANALYSIS

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the management system and deviations that occur in the local sector. The objectives of this research are to investigate the performance of top-level public managers and to explore the legal framework governing the management system as well as the irregularities in its application. In the empirical part of the study the performance of top-level public managers in the local sector are analysed and the results are compared in order to identify the performance common characteristics as well as differences between the performance of top-level public managers. The results of the research point to the possible agency problems in cases when certain interest groups conduct business for other interest groups and when one particular interest group or some public managers force their interests to the detriment of citizens. The paper points to the irregularities in the interpretation and application of the existing legal text and stresses the need to modify the existing legislation in order to enable better enforcement of rights and improve the system of management in the local sector.
