The quality of local authorities performance is determined, among others, by the involvement of social actors in the policy-making process. Among them, it is the non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that play a significant role in local polities, politics and policies. This paper tests if and how the participation of NGOs makes a difference in the quality of local self-governance, based on the evidence from Silesia (2010–2014)-the most densely populated region in Poland. The results show that the NGOs’ involvement diversifies the outcomes in the quality of governance only in a modest way and extend. Consequently, the authors conclude that the politically engaged NGOs do not qualitatively bring much of an added value and rather play a role of proto-parties. Formally not being recognised as political parties, they perform many (if not most) roles that classical political parties deliver, including the recruitment of political elites, offering the political alternative, channelling the citizens’ preferences and participation in power-sharing.

The paper describes and compares selected methods for measuring the quality of governance and the effectiveness of public administration. These methods are used by international institutions such as the World Bank, the European Central Bank, the International Institute for Management Development, and the World Economic Forum. The analysis is based on reports published by these organizations and takes into account the key criteria of governance process evaluation and types of statistical data used. All these institutions measure governance quality from different angles. The World Bank and the International Institute for Management Development focus on measuring the effectiveness and efficacy of governance processes. The European Central Bank evaluates the quality of public administration, while the World Economic Forum measures the efficiency of public institutions. The paper offers a comparative analysis of all these methods, using Person’s correlation coefficients and a grading procedure. Despite different criteria used similar governance quality indicators were obtained. The indexes given by the authors have diagnostic and informative value and offer a comprehensive picture of governance quality.

It was in the early 1990s that the World Bank first introduced the term “good governance” in its documents and aid programs. After the reorganization of 1997, a list of six indicators of good governance was compiled. The indicators were subsequently used in the research on the quality of governance in Poland. The results clearly showed that the country scored low in all aspects of good governance, notably in public sector transparency, quality of regulation, law enforcement, as well as efficiency and effectiveness of carrying out public duties by the administration.The pathway to shared prosperity in Poland is built around growth, inclusion and sustainability objectives, but success will ultimately depend on a more strategic, effective, and accountable state. Poland has done remarkably well, boasting strong growth over three decades. Looking forward, this argues that a new level of sophistication is required to meet the challenges such as rapidly aging population and evolving global economy. This includes developing a more strategic, effective, and accountable state and it is administration that can facilitate a strong consensus around consistent policies to foster growth, inclusion and sustainability. Improved consistency, commitment, coordination, and cooperation would strengthen Poland’s institutions, making them more strategic, effective and accountable.The paper describes the quality of governance and the effectiveness of public administration. The analysis is based on reports published by different institutions and takes into account measuring the effectiveness and quality of public administration and the efficiency of public institutions.

Artykuł dotyczy jakości rządzenia i efektywności administracji publicznej. Analizy dokonano przede wszystkim na podstawie dokumentów strategicznych i opublikowanych raportów różnych instytucji, uwzględniając ocenę efektywności i jakości administracji publicznej oraz sprawność instytucji publicznych.Pojęcie dobrego rządzenia wprowadził na początku lat 90. XX w. Bank Światowy. Po jego reorganizacji w 1997 r. opracowano listę sześciu kluczowych wskaźników dobrego rządzenia, które zostały zastosowane do badania jego jakości m.in. w Polsce. Badania dowiodły, że Polska osiąga niskie standardy we wszystkich wymiarach dobrego rządzenia, przede wszystkim w zakresie przejrzystości działania sfery publicznej, jakości regulacji, egzekwowania prawa, efektywności oraz skuteczności realizacji zadań publicznych przez administrację. Mimo tego Polska poradziła sobie zaskakująco dobrze, wypracowując w ciągu 30 lat silny wzrost gospodarczy. W najbliższej przyszłości niezbędne będzie jednak podjęcie zdecydowanych działań, by sprostać takim wyzwaniom, jak starzejące się społeczeństwo czy zmiany na rynkach światowych. Sytuacja wymaga wypracowania strategii opartej na funkcjonowaniu sprawnego państwa i jego efektywnej administracji, by wspierać rozwój gospodarczy i funkcjonowanie instytucji publicznych w Polsce.
