Aprendizado político e motivações governamentais: uma análise empírica dos determinantes da reforma de descentralização educacional paulista / Political learning and officials\' preferences : an empirical analysis of the Sao Paulo State\'s education reformGemignani, Thomaz Mingatos Fernandes 27 January 2012 (has links)
Políticas públicas sobre as mais diversas dimensões socioeconômicas têm sua avaliação tipicamente estruturada acerca de seus retornos efetivos, observáveis após sua instaura ção, e sua implementação conduzida leviana ou ao menos ingenuamente no que diz respeito ao seu potencial de sucesso e aos recursos empreendidos. Um aspecto alternativo de avaliação, por outro lado, consiste na contemplação de políticas quanto ao seu impacto potencial previamente à sua implementação, questionando-se os interesses dos envolvidos em sua aplicação. Ou seja, temos no estudo de trade-off\'s de economia política permeando a sua prática um componente fundamental. Por meio da análise de uma particular reforma de descentralização, procuramos investigar de que modo se configuram as preferências governamentais sobre plataformas políticas e, com isso, o potencial apresentado por mecanismos de escolha pública em promover os resultados pretendidos para os programas. Levando em consideração a associação de cenários de descentralização das responsabilidades políticas a esforços de aprendizado { possivelmente social { por parte dos governos locais, direcionamos tal foco à investigação de quais informações sobre os distintos efeitos da provisão recém-assumida têm sua captação mais valorizada por tais governantes. Resumidamente, apresentamos evidências de que o processo de decisão político é basicamente motivado por questões eleitorais - sobrepondo-se a interesses genuínos e diretos quanto ao bem-estar social - e de que o alinhamento partidário entre governantes pode representar um fator essencial ao pleno exercício de políticas públicas. / Public policies over several economic dimensions are usually subject to an evaluation built on its observable impacts, following their implementation, and are thus associated with a naive conduction with respect to the employed resources. An alternative aspect of evaluation comprehends, on the other hand, the analysis of potential effects of such policies and the interests of the agents responsible for their coordination. In other words, we believe that the study of political economy trade-offs is an essential component for understanding and improving political practice. By analyzing a specific decentralization reform we proceed to the determination of how officials\' preferences over policies are configured and question the potential of public choice mechanisms in promoting the originally intended results. While acknowledging that decentralization programs are typically characterized by the lack of experience of local governments in conducting the decentralized policies and thus by a (possibly social) learning effort with respect to several of the policies\' details, we investigate what kind of information about policy outcomes are mostly valued by the officials involved. In short, we present evidence that the politicians\' decision making proc- ess is fundamentally based on electoral and opportunistic considerations - above ideology issues - and that party cohesion among officials may constitute an essential factor to the appropriate exercise of public policies.

Financování veřejných služeb v obcích s ohledem na demografické změny - case study odpadové hospodářství v městě Karviná v letech 2007 - 2011 / Financing of municipalitie´s public services with regard to demographic changes - case study of waste management in Karvina city in years 2007 - 2011.Marcol, Aleš January 2012 (has links)
This diploma thehis is focused on the financing of public services in municipalities in the Czech Republic related to demographic changes, which take place in the Czech Republic. As is generally known, population in the Czech Republic ages. But the aging is only one of the factors influencing the demographics. The goal is to assess the impact of demographic changes on municipal expenditures associated mainly with municipal waste management, but also to the overall municipal relationship to the environment. The thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part deals with the public municipal services and demographics in the Czech Republic in time and also deals with the system of financing these services, whether the municipality's own resources, e. g. the property taxes, or other funds from the state budget or from the EU funds. The second, practical part, is formed as a case study including specific data from specific municipality. It contains detailed information about municipality's waste management and about population growth in Karvina city during the specific time period.

Access and Use of E-Government Public Services Amongst Older AdultsFlowers-Henderson, Ryshell 01 January 2019 (has links)
Lack of trust in technology, personal preference, and perceived inability to use online services are possible reasons for lagged adaptation to electronic government (e-government) among older adults in the United States. Although e-government policies promote, or require, that many public services be provided electronically, it is unclear whether older adults are able, or willing, to access such services. The purpose of this qualitative, exploratory study was to gain insight from older adults (e.g., "individuals who are 65 years or older") about their ability and willingness to access e-government services in a mid-Atlantic County. The framework for this research was Roger's diffusion of innovation theory. Data were collected via interviews with 21 older adults and then inductively coded and subjected to a thematic analysis procedure. Most participants reported using e-government services in some capacity, while the remaining 10% did not because of vision issues, the overabundance of information, personal dislike of technology, and/or the belief that e-government was not conducive for self-management. However, 28% of the participants who had used e-government preferred face-to-face interactions with people instead of online servicing while also recognizing the benefits of e-government services in terms of convenience. Moreover, participants suggested that e-government usage might improve if explanations of online terminology, examples of services, and instruction on primary online services, such as web services, are offered. The study may contribute to positive social change by providing information that federal, state, and local government officials can use to develop policies for e-government accessibility, types of services, and alternative options for the aging population.

O instituto da reversão na proteção do interesse público: (re)pensando conceitos / The institute of reversal in the protection of the public interest: (re)thinking conceptsSimões, Jesus Pacheco 20 November 2018 (has links)
O presente trabalho tem como objetivo explorar o instituto da reversão de bens no direito administrativo, realizando pesquisa teórica e legislativa para comparar o uso do instituto e pensar em suas possibilidades em outras áreas do direito administrativo. Para tanto serão adotados métodos de pesquisa qualitativa, dialética e crítica, de modo a obter uma reflexão sobre os usos e interpretações do instituto pelos mais diversos atores, assim como analisar a possibilidade ou impossibilidade de aplicação em outras áreas do direito administrativo. É necessário verificar se o conceito da reversão de bens está atualizado conforme a complexidade das relações jurídicas aplicáveis aos bens públicos e privados no Direito Administrativo na atualidade, pois assim será possível averiguar se o instituto atende aos princípios dessa área do direito, o que possibilitaria também o abarcamento de outras relações entre o setor público e o privado, especialmente aqueles identificados no \"Domínio Público Impróprio\" e se possível, pensar em uma teoria geral da reversão no direito administrativo. / The present work aims to explore the institute of reversal of assets in administrative law, carrying out theoretical and legislative research to compare the use of the institute and think about its possibilities in other areas of administrative law. For that, methods of qualitative, dialectical and critical research will be adopted, in order to obtain a reflection on the uses and interpretations of the institute by the most diverse actors, as well as to analyze the possibility or impossibility of application in other areas of administrative law. It is necessary to check whether the concept of reversal of assets is updated according to the complexity of the legal relations applicable to public and private assets in Administrative Law at the present time, since this will be possible to verify if the institute complies with the principles of this area of law, the coverage of other relations between the public and the private sector, especially those identified in the \"Inappropriate Public Domain\" and if possible, think of a general theory of reversion in administrative law.

Do Politicians’ Preferences Correspond to those of the Voters? : An Investigation of Political RepresentationÅgren, Hanna, Dahlberg, Matz, Mörk, Eva January 2007 (has links)
This paper investigates political representation by exploring the relationship between citizens' preferences and the preferences of their elected representatives. Using Swedish survey data, the empirical analysis shows that voters and politicians have significantly different preferences for local welfare services, implying that voters do not elect representatives with the same preferences as their own. The results show that when comparing a politician of a certain age, gender, educational level and marital status, with a voter with identical characteristics, the politician still has preferences for a significantly higher level of spending on the locally provided services. Hence our results indicate that the representation of different socio-economic groups does not necessarily lead to a larger degree of representation of these groups' agendas. Moreover, we find the observed difference to be largest for the least salient expenditure item. We do, however, not find any evidence for differences in preferences between the two groups being associated with a decline in trust for politicians among voters

Kultūros paslaugų kokybės vertinimas akademinio jaunimo požiūriu / Assessment of Cultural Services Quality according to Academic Youth standpointPetrulevičiūtė, Ernesta 02 August 2011 (has links)
Kiekviena įstaiga, siekdama tenkinti kuo aukštesnės kokybės paslaugas, privalo nuolat tirti savo klientų poreikius bei remiantis tyrimo metu gautais duomenis, tobulinti savo teikiamas paslaugas. Tai privalo daryti ne tik privatusis sektorius, tai aktualu ir viešojo sektoriaus įstaigoms. Viena iš viešojo sektoriaus sričių – kultūros įstaigos.
Šiauliuose veikia daugybė kultūros įstaigų, tačiau iki šiol nėra tirta šių įstaigų teikiamų paslaugų kokybė. Todėl ši tema tampa aktuali. Šiuo darbu siekiama įvertinti trijų Šiaulių miesto kultūros įstaigų teikiamų paslaugų kokybę (Šiaulių dailės galerijos, Šiaulių miesto kultūros centro „Laiptų galerija“ ir Šiaulių koncertinės įstaigos „Saulė“) akademinio jaunimo požiūrių. Akademinis jaunimas pasirinktas kaip vienas aktyviausių kultūros vartotojų.

Taip pat mokslinės literatūros analize siekiama išsiaiškinti viešojo sektoriaus teikiamų paslaugų išskirtinumą bei viešųjų paslaugų kokybės vertinimo ypatumus. Kadangi tiriama kultūros įstaigų teikiamų paslaugų kokybė, teorinėje dalyje bandoma išryškinti kultūrinių įstaigų veiklos specifiką.
