This article examines the impact of selected factors of public contracts on the efficiency of public procurement with an emphasis on decentralization. We analysed the influence of these factors using an econometric model applied to data on public procurement, specifically on pubic construction contracts for 2013 – 2014. To achieve a higher degree of assurance we have verified these results by analysing public contracts for the purchase of gas for the years 2013 – 2014. In the context of the available data, this public contract procedure has a relatively homogeneous subject of performance. The research conclusions which have been reached are significant, partly for the considerations regarding the centralization vs. decentralization of purchases, but they also represent a valuable contribution to the empirical investigation of the decentralized production of public goods and services.

The fundamental reform of public administration in Ukraine started after political changes in 2014. This process is connected with decentralization, which is to ensure the transfer of finances and political powers from the state administration to self-government. Ongoing municipal reform is needed to create a viable self-government in Ukraine. The article deals with examples of good and bad practice in the implementation of public administration reform in Ukraine.

Regionalism comes to the front nowadays as one of the possible ways of public administration and development policy. However, while public administration organised on spatial base has a millenary past, regional development policy as a category emerged only in the last decades. This tendency has strengthened through Hungary's accession to the European Union, as our membership also goes with the admittance to the funds of the EU regional policy. One aim of the study is to present with a comprehensive train of thoughts the necessity of the regional development from the side of economy and public task taking from the following three points of view: analyses the theoretical considerations, the international experience and the Hungarian regional economic and institutional process. The study contains the examination of the regional institutional system based on its legal environment, relation to policy, orientation and disposable sources. Based on the results of the analyses we attempt to answer the possibilities of the improvement of regional policy in Hungary. In our deductions we take a stand on further fiscal and political decentralisation and suggest some practical steps for its achievement. Decentralisation is a more effective alternative than central compensatory measures.

The centralization the corporate structural system inherited from the planned economy acts as an impediment to market competition, so that many of the big, artificially created state-owned firms have to be broken up. An active part in doing so has to be played by the state, through the Economic Competition Office as 'guardian' of competition. The logic is clear, but a matter of dispute theoretically and in practice. The article presents the theoretical dilemmas of demonopolization that appeared with the change of system and shows what attempts were made to resolve them through competition regulation and the activity of the Competition Office. It emerges from the analysis that the main role in building up the structural conditions was not played by the Competition Office, which declined the task of inspecting the inherited structure and the privatization decisions, seeing it as economically and politically delicate. As for the small number of merger decisions connected with privatization that it took, they were handled in a legal fashion, but most of the sales and take-overs were simply permitted, not always for consistent reasons.

In the article, the issue of changes in the social functions of the state in terms of progressive globalization processes has been discussed. For many years the withdrawal of the state from performing a series of tasks of a social nature has followed. It is caused among others as a result of pressure from business lobby and the need to restructure the existing social policy. The idea of active social policy is being developed, and some of the tasks of a social nature are passed on governments and non-governmental organizations, which create support networks.

The article comprises a discussion on the supervision of the activity of museums established by central administration bodies and local self-government bodies. Museums, as a result of the public administration decentralisation, have been equipped with substantial independence from the entities that establish them. Appropriate protection of the assets they are entrusted with, and the fulfilment of the objectives set for museums, call for appropriate supervision of the tasks they have been assigned. The present model is inefficient so it calls for an intervention of the legislator. First of all, it is necessary to adjust the scope of competence of individual supervision bodies, and the resources they have at their disposal, to the scope and nature of the tasks they have been entrusted with. It is especially important to introduce effective supervision of the protection of the collections, because it is the most important task of museums.

Increasing the role of regional authorities will be a priority in the next stage of the EU's growth and jobs strategy. This is a remarkable moment, when local and regional authorities can directly express their opinions to Brussels about the Lisbon strategy. Regional representatives play a key role in this process. They present the interests of the region and are significant players in the promotion and implementation of the objectives of the cohesion policy. The cohesion policy is among to the most important EU policies according to its meaning and volume of funds. Without underestimating the position of the national level, many problems are best solved at a functional level, whether this is at local, regional or transnational. So the cohesion policy with cooperation of national bodies should retain and indeed reinforce the role of cities, regional and local players.

This paper provides a coherent framework which allows understanding the economics of information processing in the management of a firm. Data processing is modelled as a dynamic parallel-processing model of associative computation with an endogenous set-up cost. In such a model, the conditions for the efficient organization of data processing are defined, and the architecture of efficient structures is analyzed. It is shown that, as in computer systems, the so-called 'skip-level reporting' structures are efficient. However, if the information workload of managers cannot be equalized, then the best pattern of information workload has to be determined, and resources allocated to the managers have to be adjusted to it. The method of adjustment of resources to the information workload of managers in one-shot skip-level reporting structures is presented and an example of an organization of data processing in demand forecasting is considered.

The article presents the problem of decentralization in the public sector in the context of good governance and proper architecture of the fiscal policy. We can observe discussion that has attracted attention to the growing gap between the tax systems that the policymakers of some countries might wish to have and those that global forces are forcing them to adopt. In the last decade many economies in the world have experienced currency, debt, financial and banking crises and most of the public finance had to be able to bear it by creating policy framework for reducing the moral hazard risks.

This paper deals with the potential connections of decentralization with economic imbalances in the European countries. Two indicators have been chosen for measuring economic imbalances: an indicator dispersion of regional GDP per capita as a representative of the performance imbalances within countries (it measures the economic development gap among regions in European countries) and a multidimensional inequality-adjusted human development index as a representative of inequalities in the distribution of wealth in the countries. According to this analysis quite weak links were proved between the tested variables. Decentralization does not belong among the strong factors influencing economic imbalances. Despite this weak link it is still possible to conclude that decentralization is more connected with differences in economic performance than with differences in distribution.

This is the third article which continues to investigate the theme of anarchism in the world an in Ukraine ('Filosofska dumka', 2008, 4; 2009, 2), the issue of the new wave of anarchism starting from the sixties of 20th century is traced here. The influence of Daniel Guérin and Situationist International on students' rebellions in 1968 is analyzed. The article presents also the investigation of the main tactical and theoretical directions of the anarchistic movement of the early 21st century on the basis of the sources of the considered period. The author tries to keep within the bounds of the objective analysis. He comes to the conclusion that modern anarchism as a socio-philosophical doctrine does not overstep the bounds of its classical origins. In the next, fourth article the same approach is applied to Ukraine from 1991 up to now. The article contains also the analysis of socio-political situation in Ukraine presuming from the analysis of the contemporary theorists of anarchism abroad.
