It appears that the Participatory Budgeting process continued to experience a decline in popular participation, this being due, in part, the lack of interest of the municipal administration.

Tenta-se compreender as variáveis sociais e políticas que influíram na atuação do OP durante a gestão de João Castelo (PSDB). Constata-se que o Orçamento Participativo continuou a vivenciar um processo de declínio na participação popular, sendo isto consequência, em parte, da falta de interesse da administração municipal, bem como apatia e falta de cultura cívica por parte da sociedade. Alguns fatores levantados no trabalho esclarecem que a atuação do OP em São Luís, durante o período 2009-2012, não contribuiu para o incremento ou fomento da participação social. Para a realização do trabalho foram feitas pesquisas bibliográficas, foram utilizadas algumas fontes documentais e realizadas entrevistas semi estruturadas com funcionários da Secretária Extraordinária de Orçamento Participativo (SEMOP) responsáveis, durante esse período, pela mobilização social.

A review of the normative literature, in the field of Information Technology (IT)/ Information System (IS) justification, examines how organisations evaluate their investments in Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRPII). This is achieved through investigating the issues surrounding capital budgeting, with a particular focus on investment appraisal. In doing so, a novel taxonomy of generic appraisal techniques is proposed. This taxonomy identifies a number of methods for appraising MRPII investments, and through describing these techniques, a classification is offered that identifies their respective characteristics and limitations. In doing so, it becomes clear that although many of the benefits and savings resulting from MRPII are suitable for inclusion within traditional accountancy frameworks, it is their intangible and non-financial nature, together with a range of indirect project costs that confuse the justification process. These factors, together with a range of human and organisational implications, that further complicate the decision making process are also identified. Hence, it appears through a critical review of the literature that many companies are unable to assess the implications of their MRPII investments, thus amounting to a myopic appraisal process that focuses on the analysis of those benefits and costs that are financially quantifiable. In acknowledging the limitations of traditional appraisal techniques, a conceptual model for IT/IS investment evaluation is proposed, which is underpinned by research hypotheses. To test the validity of the proposed hypotheses, a robust novel research methodology is then developed. In doing so, an interpretivist stance is adopted, which favours the use of qualitative research methods during a multiple case enquiry. Whilst conducting the empirical research, it soon emerged that the hypotheses represented significant factors for consideration within the presented model. As a result, such constructs now establish themselves as integral parts within a structured evaluation process. However, during the empirical research, complementary evaluation criteria also emerged, which resulted in modifications being made to the previously presented conceptual model. In doing so, culminating in the development of descriptive MRPII evaluation criteria and a model, which provides investment decision makers with novel frames of reference during the evaluation of MRPII investment proposals.

Syftet med studien har varit att undersöka den upplevda nyttan med nyckeltal i verksamhetsstyrningen. Fokus har legat på snabbväxande tillväxtbolag och chefsroller i dessa bolag. Studiens huvudfrågeställning är hur personer upplever nyttan av nyckeltal i verksamhetsstyrningen. För att kunna besvara den behöver underfrågan hur respondenterna upplever att de nyckeltal de använder fyller sitt syfte besvaras. Studien är en kvalitativ studie baserad på intervjuer där respondenterna har fått tala så fritt som möjligt kring nyckeltal och deras erfarenheter och upplevelser kring dessa. Resultatet av intervjuerna visade att respondenterna inte bara är väl bevandrade i användandet av nyckeltal utan också att de har upplevt att de ger stor nytta för styrningen av snabbväxande tillväxtbolag. Av resultatet framgick också att det är viktigt för nyttan att de nyckeltal som används för styrning harmoniserar och att medarbetarna har förståelse för hur olika nyckeltal hänger ihop och hur de kan driva verksamheten framåt med sin egen insats.

La budgétisation désigne de manière générale le fait d'inscrire les ressources et les charges de l'État dans un document, appelé "budget". Par ailleurs, dans les pays francophones, les finances publiques ont bénéficié ces dernières années d'évolutions très importantes qui, ont changé leur nature. Le point de départ de cette évolution a été l'adoption par le Parlement français de la LOLF en 2001 et sa mise en application en 2006.Cette loi consacre la transition d'un budget de moyens, présenté par nature de dépense, à un budget par objectif présenté par programme. Ce n'est pas une simple amélioration de la procédure budgétaire, mais plutôt un changement total de perspective. Avant cette loi, le gouvernement demandait au parlement des autorisations de dépenses sans justifier les objectifs de la dépense. Actuellement, le gouvernement sollicite des autorisations de dépenses sur la base de programmes, c'est-à-dire de politiques publiques, auxquelles sont associés des objectifs et des indicateurs qui, permettront après exécution, d'en mesurer le degré de réalisation. C'est ce que les pays membres de la CEMAC, de l'UEMOA et du Maghreb expérimentent également. Les finances publiques étant un moteur de relance, elles peuvent jouer un rôle essentiel dans le décollage de l'économie nationale d'un quelconque pays, particulièrement avec la mise en place de la budgétisation par objectif. / Generally speaking, budgeting deals with forecasting state resources and expenditures wthin a document labeled"budget". Lately, public finances have been positively managed in Francophones countries where results have been observed, improving by the same token the nature of these countries public finances. The starting point of this improvement is due to the approval by French representatives of the LOLF law (the law framing state's budgeting) in 2001 and its ultimate implementation in 2006. This law focuses on transitioning budget based on means presented by its expenditure nature to a planned budget based on targeted objectives and programs. This is far from being a mere improvement of budgeting process, rather, it is total change of budgeting perspective. Before the LOLF law approval, government used to ask expenditure authorization from representatives without explaining its objectives. As of now, government asks for expenditure authorizations for its planned programs : public policies with objectives and indicators which, after implementation, should allow measuring the impact of this public policies. This new vision is also now being put into practice by EMCCA and WAEMU state members.
