Z dějin moskevské samosprávy (Boris N. Čičerin)

Author(s): Josef Šaur / Language(s): Czech Publication Year: 0

In his chapter on the history of the city administration in Moscow, Josef Šaur briefly describes the development of city administrations in Russia. Unlike those in Europe, they did not have defined privileges and autonomy, but for most of history, they played the role of administrative and military centers. Urban administrations were first introduced in pre-revolutionary Russia at the end of the 18th century, and they reached their peak under Alexander II. They are characterized by strict supervision from state authorities, who also interfered in cities’ internal matters. This is well illustrated by the example of Boris Chicherin, who tried throughout his mandate to defend the independence of the mayoral function. His public appearances were repeatedly criticized and became the cause of his removal from office despite his many successes in the administration of Moscow.

The European Social Model in the Eurointegration of Romania and Bulgaria: Quality of Life in Terms of Policies and Outcomes

Author(s): Gabriela Motoi / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

According to Eurostat statistics, more than 10 years after joining the European Union, Bulgaria and Romania "dispute" the last places in the rankings, which reveal the evolution of the main indicators of the quality of life. In addition, it seems that 12 years of European funds absorption, a large part of them being for the development of human capital, were not enough for the Romanian and Bulgarian societies to make progress in improving the quality of life of their citizens. Based on these considerations, this study aims to analyse, in a comparative manner, how social policies on several topics, such as, population, education or health have or have not produced positive effects on quality of life. Moreover, our study is relying on the fact that, although there are national social policy regulations and action lines conforming to the European Social Model, in the two societies (Romanian and Bulgarian), statistics confirm us that the effects are not similar in each of the 28 EU countries.

Vali ve Büyükşehir Belediye Başkanının Ulus Ötesicilik Kavramı Çerçevesinde Yeni Rolleri ve Kamu Yönetiminde Ortaya Çıkan Yeni Yapı

Author(s): Cemal Öztürk / Language(s): Turkish Publication Year: 0

Küreselleşmeyle birlikte ulus devlet sınırlarının birçok alanda etkisini yitirdiği bir dönemde göç gibi ulus ötesi hareketler devletlerin maruz kaldığı etkiyi büyütmektedir. Göç olgusu yalnızca insanların fiziki olarak bir yerden bir yere gitmesi değil, aynı zamanda gittiği yerde bir takım etkilere maruz kaldığı gibi belki o kadar olmasa da gittiği bu yerde bir takım etkilemeler de yaptığı gerçeğidir. Ulus devletlerde gördüğümüz ve etkileme ve etkilenmelerin vatandaşlar tarafından gerçekleştiği ortamlar, bahsettiğimiz tarzdaki ulus ötesi hareketler sonrasında tabiyetten bağımsız bir takım ulus ötesi toplumsal ve ekonomik bağlar kurulmasına yol açmakta, bu bağlar sonucunda da uluslararası sistem ve devletin yapısında değişiklikler ya da en azından değişikliklere yol açabilecek hareketler meydana gelmektedir. Ulus ötesinden gelen kendi uluslarının sınırlarını aşan yapılar gittikleri yerde bir takım kurallar, formasyonlarla karşılaşmakta ve bu genelde uygulamada resmi olarak yetkilendirilmiş ve görevlendirilmiş kişi veya makamlarca dizayn edilmektedir. Ülkemize oluşan bu tür ulus ötesi hareketlerin düzenlenmesi, organize edilmesi, bunların üstünde yetki kullanılması ve bunlara hizmet verilmesi bağlamında gerçekleştirilecek olan uyum süreci çok önemlidir. Bu süreçte yetkili ve görevli olanlar, yetki ve görev sınırları, bu bağlamdaki konumları ortaya konulmalı, aşikar kılınmalıdır. Bu alandaki mevcut durum ortaya konulduktan sonra ancak üstüne olumlu girişimler yapmak mümkün olacaktır. Ülkemiz açısından konuya bakıldığında, ulus ötesi hareketlerle gelenlere yapılacak muameleler hususunda yasal olarak en yetkili merciler mülki amirlikler ve belediyelerdir. Valiler özellikle illerdeki mülki amir ve hükümetin ildeki temsilcisi olmaları sıfatıyla, belediyeler de yürüttükleri hizmetler açısından kanunlarla bir takım çerçevesi belli yetki ve görevlerle donatılmışlardır. Valilerin konumu daha ziyade yetki, belediyelerin konumu da daha ziyade hizmet noktasında dikkate çekmekte ise de yetki ve görev ilintisi nedeniyle birbirleriyle bağlantısında şüphe bulunmamaktadır. Konuya küreselleşme ve ulus ötesicilik kavramıyla başlayıp bunlarla bağlantılı ve etkileşimi yüksek olan göç konusu ve etkileşimleri incelendikten sonra Vali ve genelde belediye başkanları özelde büyükşehir belediye başkanlarının konumları, etki ve etkinlikleri ortaya konulacaktır.

Author(s): Emil Asenov / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The article analyzed the powers of president of the Republic of Bulgaria conclusion which can be reached is that the Bulgarian constitution are a number of false and conjuncture solutions as a result of which there is inadequate transformation of the high electoral legitimacy of the president in significantly reduced institutional capacity. The limited constitutional powers of the President are a serious structural defect of the system of state power in Bulgaria , which leads to a violation of the necessary balance between the authorities and does not hinder the establishment and functioning of the system of mutual control between them. It is necessary that the constitutional powers of each state institution should be harmonized as much as possible with its legitimate status. In this connection defines our proposals from functional systemic and structural nature that would allow the presidential institution to take a more independent and equal position in relation to other states power. They would provide an opportunity for the Bulgarian president to be given a new, important role in the system of government. The new increased, functional capacity of the presidential institution would enable it to take its rightful place, given its degree of legitimacy. New they functionalities of the presidential institution would allow it and be an important factor in strengthening of statehood , as well as reorganization of the political system in Bulgaria.

Towards a Contemporary Understanding of Administrative Procedure

Author(s): Javier Barnes / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The bulk of official legal decisions are made not by judges, nor by legislature, but by public administrations. Behind these decisions are administrative procedures, understood as the rules governing the process of decision-making: from administrative sanctions, to public procurement, from ministerial regulations supplementing a statute, to urban planning developing and designing the land use. “Administrative procedure” ultimately refers to a how governmental organizations actually conduct business and manage responsibilities. Today there are a bewilderingly large and diverse number of administrative procedures. Whilst the first general administrative procedure acts (APAs) focused on the so-called “administrative act” (typically a unilateral decision made by public bodies), their reach progressively broadened as the responsibilities of the executive branch and public administrations grew. APAs branched out to deal with other legal acts, such as rules and regulations, agreements under public law, guidelines and administrative guidance, as well as setting general principles to which administrative activities would be subject. The different models on which most administrative procedures are based differ deeply from each other and require a different legal approach regarding their basic elements: from the main types of administrative procedure to their general procedural principles; from infringement sanctions of procedural rules to judicial review, and so forth. A contemporary theory of administrative procedure – and an updated APA – will thus have to assume a broader concept.

Young for the elderly – awareness and actions of young people for a better life of the elderly

Author(s): Adrijana FURJAN / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The fast technological improvements, sustainable growth and development of the world economy have led to what has become a fundamental determinant of the modern, hectic way of life, known as the lifestyle of the 21st century. In such context, people’s expectations are increasing, and they are always seeking for the new opportunities; however, many are often failing to take a break from every day’s haste and stress. Young people often do not have time for their private and business obligations, and thus for activism and caring for society. Scientist in technical and architectural sciences, Mr. sc. Marina Šimunić, finds that only 5% of young people are socially engaged in the Republic of Croatia. This research finds the main reason for such a low interest in social activities and lack of initiative for changes is the fact that youth accept their community as it is. Decreased involvement of young people in social actions has becoming more evident in Croatia especially, when an average of 30,000 young people a year have migrated in the period from 2015 to 2020.

The effects of judgments on the suspension of normative administrative acts and their concrete consequences

Author(s): Anamaria Groza / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The judgments ordering the suspension of administrative acts, whether individual or normative, have effect only between the parties to the dispute in which they were given. If in the case of individual administrative acts, this effect is fully justified, in the case of normative administrative acts, the situation becomes problematic. The study aims to analyze the legal basis of the two proposed solutions regarding the effects of judgments ordering the suspension of normative administrative acts: inter partes effects vs. erga omnes effects. The research conducted is descriptive and explanatory, supported by relevant case law and doctrine. If a normative administrative act has been suspended by the court (all the more so when the judgment has become final), that act might be suspected of illegality. In this case, one of the three presumptions on which its enforceability is based, the presumption of legality respectively, has been temporarily removed. The principle of the legality of administrative acts justifies the removal of the enforcement of this act also in relation to the persons who did not have the quality of party, but who can bear the consequences of a seemingly illegal act. At the same time, the specifics of the normative administrative act, as well as the principles of the predictability of the law and legal certainty, argue in favour of this solution.

The entry into force of the Romanian Administrative Code has maintained, unfortunately, a controversial legal provision, regarding the suspension of the public servant's employment relationship, in case legal proceedings are taken against the public servant, if commited certain acts. From our perspective, article 513 paragraph (1) letter l) of the Romanian Administrative Code raises serious concerns regarding the presumption of innocence and the right to work of the public servants found in such situation.

The Law on metropolitan areas. The intention of the legislator to regulate one of the forms of association of local communities

Author(s): Gabriel Marin / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The forms of association of local communities are the intercommunity development association and the metropolitan area. These two forms of association of local communities can be formed into private entities of public interest. In contrast to inter-community development associations, metropolitan areas may have a limited territorial jurisdiction of up to 30 km compared to the county municipality where they can be established. In addition, according to the normative acts in force, metropolitan areas can only be established around municipalities of county or municipalities declared. Although the legislator wished for a difference between intercommunity development associations and metropolitan areas, even though there was no express text of the law that could be applied for differentiation, local public authorities understood to establish metropolitan areas in the same way as intercommunity development associations. Realizing that the metropolitan area can be used to determine financial and social growth within the communities that compose it, the legislator, through the relevant ministry, published on its virtual page, on March 8, for public consultation, on the Metropolitan areas Law, wishing to know the position of the citizens in relation to the changes they wish to make in relation to this form of association of local communities. In the present study, we analyze the provisions of the draft normative act on metropolitan areas quantitatively, showing what essential changes shall be made within this form of association of local communities if the law shall be promulgated, what are the financial and social benefits for the local communities that make up a metropolitan area and what changes could be made to the draft normative act. For the administrative territorial organization of the Romanian state, the legislation on metropolitan areas represented a step toward a modern administrative territorial organization of European type, respecting the principle of subsidiarity more than it is currently respected.

This article will try to analyze some of the situations in which local administration authorities have clearly violated the provisions of Law no. 52/2003 or Law no. 544/2001, restricting the right of citizens to take cognizance of certain draft normative acts regarding important issues related to the good running of the community, free access to various public information or aspects related to training, administration, and the use of local public funds.
