Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Government in Continental Europe To some critics it may appear that I have ascribed undue importance to Paris as a type and an influence; yet I can hardly think that anv reader will fail to agree that Paris is the necessary starting-point for a description of the modern regime in Continental cities. In the preceding volume I found it advanta geons to select Glasgow for the more rounded and elaborate study of British municipal life in the con crete. In my own inquiries and observations as an American visitor, I had discovered that to know well the ways and works of the Glasgow municipality was to possess standards of comparison and points of view which afforded the best possible equipment for the further examination of municipal methods and achievements, whether in Edinburgh and Dundee, in Belfast and Dublin, or in Manchester, Birmingham.

Download or read book Local Governance in Western Europe written by Peter John and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2001-12-20 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text provides a comprehensive introduction to local government and urban politics in contemporary Western Europe. It is the first book to map and explain the significant processes of change characterizing local government systems and to place these in a genuinely comparative context. Students are introduced to the traditional structures and institutions of local government and shown how these have been transforming in response to increased economic and political competition, new ideas, institutional reform and the Europeanization of public policies in Europe. At the books core is the perceived transition from local government to local governance. This key development is traced thematically across a w
Download or read book The Capacity of Local Governments in Europe written by Sabine Kuhlmann and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-10-05 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book compares local self-government in Europe. It examines local institutional structures, autonomy, and capacities in six selected countries - France, Italy, Sweden, Hungary, Poland, and the United Kingdom - each of which represents a typical model of European local government. Within Europe, an overall trend towards more local government capacities and autonomy can be identified, but there are also some counter tendencies to this trend and major differences regarding local politico-administrative settings, functional responsibilities, and resources. The book demonstrates that a certain degree of local financial autonomy and fiscal discretion is necessary for effective service provision. Furthermore, a robust local organization, viable territorial structures, a professional public service, strong local leadership, and well-functioning tools of democratic participation are key aspects for local governments to effectively fulfill their tasks and ensure political accountability. The book will appeal to students and scholars of Public Administration and Public Management, as well as practitioners and policy-makers at different levels of government, in public enterprises, and in NGOs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Government in Great Britain In the present volume I have sought to give such an account of the working of municipal institu tions in Great Britain as would supply the infor mation that American readers might find most suggestive and useful for their purposes. A second volume will treat, somewhat similarly, of municipal government in the chief countries of Continental Europe. The British system and its developments, particularly in the great manufacturing and com mercial towns, would seem to be worthy of the practical attention of our ambitious American cities of corresponding rank as regards population and commercial importance.

Download or read book 50 Years of Local Democracy in Europe written by Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of Europe and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe, the representative and the voice of local and regional authorities throughout the continent, celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of its creation. Originally conceived to make the voice of local authorities count in the incipient European unification, with the passing years it was able to transcend this strict role in order to help to reshape the continent in its own way, particularly by promoting regional policies. This study follows the growth of the Congress and presents the many initiatives it has taken to help the towns and regions of Europe to develop harmoniously, whether at the political, economic, social, cultural, or environmental level. It has been behind numerous European conventions, today recognised all over the continent, and tirelessly contributes to the consolidation of local and regional democracy in Europe. Besides its work, it is the podium and the meeting place for all European local and regional elected representatives, giving it specificity and a wealth unique among the European institutions. While retracing the path travelled over the past fifty years, this study highlights the importance of the towns and regions for tomorrow's Europe and presents the major challenges facing them for the future, together with the solutions that will enable them to meet those challenges.

The judicial branch of the imperial government remains to be considered. Justice is admin- jndi. istered in the first instance by the state oiarycourts; but curiously enough, the organization of these courts is regulated by imperial statutes.1 Their rules of practice are also derived from the same source, for the federal government has enacted general codes of civil and criminal procedure, which apply to the state tribunals.2 It has, moreover, enacted a universal criminal code and a commercial code, and has just added to these a general code of civil law; so that there are in each State a similar series of courts organized on an imperial plan and expounding imperial laws in accordance with imperial forms of procedure, but whose members are appointed by the local sovereign and render their decisions in his name. Apart from administrative and consular courts, there is only one federal tribunal, called the Heichs-Reichagericht, or Court of the Empire. It has gerichtoriginal jurisdiction in cases of treason against the Empire, and appellate jurisdiction from the federal consular courts, and from the state courts on questions of imperial law.3 It is to be observed, therefore, that tary of state, or president of a bureau, at its head. Such are the Interior, Foreign Affairs, Navy, Post Office, Justice, Treasury, Railroads, Invalid Funds, Debt Commission, and Imperial Bank. Laband, 41. 1 The Gerichtsverfassunggesetz of Jan. 27,1877.
