Celem artykułu jest próba określenia cech i zakresu nowej sfery publicznej, wskazania jej uczestników, a także implikacji wynikających z jej funkcjonowania. Główna teza opracowania zawiera się w następującym stwierdzeniu: nowa sfera publiczna umożliwia łatwiejsze zaangażowanie społeczne w kwestie publiczne i daje lepsze możliwości agregacji preferencji, co powinno skutkować większą efektywnością działania sektora publicznego. Pojęcie nowej sfery publicznej zostało zaproponowane w opozycji do tradycyjnej – mieszczańskiej, zdefiniowanej przez J. Habermasa. Jej najistotniejszą cechą jest wykorzystanie sieci Internetu, a w szczególności jego asynchronicznych cech do budowania więzi, grup zainteresowań i grup nacisku, wpływających na zakres przedmiotowy sektora publicznego.

The aim of this paper is to define the characteristics and scope of the new public sphere, indicate its participants, as well as the implications of its operation. The main thesis can be summarized in the following statement: the new public sphere facilitates involvement in public issues and provides better opportunities for preference aggregation, which should result in greater efficiency of the public sector. The concept of the "new public sphere" has been proposed in opposition to the traditional, bourgeois public sphere, defined by J. Habermas. Its most important attribute is that it uses the Internet, in particular its asynchronous features, to build relationships, interest groups, and pressure groups, influencing the scope of the public sector.

In the global rankings of generalized trust, Poland occupies a low position. Polish people are rather distrustful. Analyses of trust endeavour to isolate (distinguish) distrust. Distrust is more and more often defined as a separate definition, not only as the opposite to trust. Analysis of distrust seems indispensable, in particular with reference to the public sector. Public sector organizations point out at building trust. The article is an attempt to systematize the concept of distrust through analysis of trust and separation of basic differences in both concepts (trust and distrust) was made. A great significance of distrust towards entities (organizations) of the public sector may be observed. The objective of the article and research was to prepare a theoretical basis for the studies on distrust in the Polish public sector. The paper includes theoretical frameworks, which may be used for a detailed research on the role and significance of distrust in the public sector. The paper is based on the literature review and generally available data.

The aim of this study is to estimate the unexplained gender pay gap in individual departments of a Czech hospital, to find out whether this gap varies between departments and, if so, to identify the possible causes of these differences. To estimate the unexplained part of the gender pay gap, we use the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT), and to identify the causes behind differences in the unexplained gender pay gap we use a linear regression model. We find that the ATT varies significantly between departments. To explain these differences, we use selected characteristics of the departments: the department’s size, the proportion of women in the department, and the gender of the departmental head. We come to the conclusion that women’s wages increase relative to male wages as the proportion of female employees grows. On the other hand, the unexplained gender wage gap is not proven to be lower in smaller or female-led departments.

The aim of the paper is to discuss the selected issues on risk management in public organizations in Poland. In particular, the issue of implementing the comprehensive risk management system in the public sector is of top priority in the discourse. For the complex risk management requires the integrated management thereof. Only such a formula ensures the comprehensive management of any threats in public organizations. The operated system of the integrated risk management would allow for timely anticipation of some of the types of threats or for determining the most suitable manner of risk response. The risk management system operated within the organization ought to be fully IT-supported. Owing to this, the risk managers will be able to acquire the current information on risk on regular basis, store it in the proper bases, process it, which will allow for counter-acting the risk in a more efficient manner in future as opposed to the common practice so far.

Lessons learned from the period of the euro area fiscal policy, especially the last global financial crisis prompted the European Union to seek new institutions and instruments. In terms of instruments appeared (in November 2011), the concept issue of Stability Bonds (Eurobonds). The Stability Bonds are sovereign bonds issued by Member States of the euro area through a common debt management office. Thereupon, the debt management office distributes the proceeds to Member States. The Commission presents three options for the implementation of Eurobonds and puts up for discussion the related pros and cons. With regard to the pros it mentions in particular the alleviation of the current debt crisis, the stabilisation of the banking system and the increased liquidity of the government bonds market. With regard to the cons it mentions the reduced incentives for budgetary discipline. For instance, Member States can run up debts at the expense of the budgetary discipline of other Member States, without this having an affect on their financing costs.The aim of this paper is to attempt to assess the development of the public debt in the euro area and the relevance of the issue and the potential consequences of Stability Bonds.

This paper will assess transparency in the decision-making process in sports grants allocation. In comparison with other parts of the public sector, surprisingly little is known about transparency in the sports sector. An increasing portion of public funds is spent on sport grants; this establishes the necessity for research. Can any positive effects of sports grants be expected to appear without transparency in the decisionmaking process? An examination of the process in reality is crucial for future public resources allocation. Based on the general assumption that NGOs are important actors in economic and political development, we address the Czech Republic at the municipal level. The main goals of this paper are to assess the transparency of the allocation of public grants for sport organizations on the municipal level in the Czech Republic and to discuss one possible method for improving system transparency and efficiency: vouchers. We discuss sport vouchers as a possible tool for improving transparency. Vouchers solve the problem of transparency in the decision-making process by transferring the purchasing power to the client. Although using sports vouchers as a tool for allocating public resources is quite rare, there are a few examples of this practice in the Czech Republic. We established two research questions: (1) Do sport clubs perceive the allocation of sport grants at the municipality level as transparent? (2) Do sport clubs consider a voucher system as helpful for the transparency? To answer these questions, we discuss the theory and specific conditions in the Czech Republic; we perform a survey among sport clubs and we examine examples of voucher implementation; and we discuss the general consequences of our results.

W ostatnich latach widoczne jest zwiększenie aktywności w zakresie standaryzacji rachunkowości sektora publicznego, w tym również w obszarze rynku wspólnotowego UE. Celem artykułu jest prezentacja stanu i perspektyw harmonizacji oraz standaryzacji rachunkowości w sektorze publicznym ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem europejskiego obszaru gospodarczego. Jako hipotezę badawczą przyjęto, iż procesy ujednolicenia systemów rachunkowości sektora publicznego Unii Europejskiej mają na celu przede wszystkim ograniczenie negatywnych skutków ryzyka braku porównywalności danych sprawozdawczych krajów członkowskich. Metodami badawczymi wykorzystanymi w artykule są: krytyczna analiza oraz metaanaliza polskiej i zagranicznej literatury przedmiotu oraz dokumentów sprawozdawczych, metoda obserwacji i syntezy. W wyniku prowadzonych badań uznano, że ramach UE nasilają się procesy standaryzacji rachunkowości sektora publicznego. W najbliższych latach należy spodziewać się wdrożenia w państwach członkowskich standardów EPSAS.

The efficient delivery of social services is important not only for the functioning of the community, but also for the improvement of practice to provide these services. Striving for perfection can have its source in many areas of functioning, including the sphere of business. Hence the search for opportunities for improvement at the source of logistics, in particular social logistics. Managing supply chains underpinning modern logistics, provides a much more sophisticated ways to improve flow of elements, except that for the purposes described in this article the range of adjustment tools and/or strategies to meet the needs of delivery of social services needs to be considered. Identification and analysis of the value chain is a way to search for sources of both efficiency and inefficiency of an organization and serves as an opportunity to explore how it should be managed. Bearing in mind that "network organization" is a form similar to the functioning of the individual organizations, we can use the value chain in order to examine the management of the network, which in fact are public and social partnerships. These organizations providing social services have introduced innovations in management that are supposed to unite organizations providing social services in a single chain. Such a connection can be the starting point in the application of the logistic approach both in the organization of social service delivery, as well as to evaluate the effectiveness of providing services to beneficiaries. An attempt to adapt logistics experience in this area opens up a new field of research and gives an opportunity to change how to configure resources for social service delivery.

Demographic pressures across Central Europe strongly impact the public service sector in regions and municipalities. Setting the evidence-based systems that would support policy making in this context are of a great importance for all levels of governance, from the EU institutions to local governments. The paper presents a methodological approach to comparative studies concerning economics of public service (social care, healthcare, housing, public transport, roads, water and sewage treatment) in Central Europe. Several known approaches to this kind of studies fail due to different contextual and statistical systems. Alternative approach, based upon microeconomic data is proposed.
