Abstract An operational urban development relying on the structured cooperation of the public and private sectors is indispensable to purposefully address the challenges posed by sustainable development. Its evolution in Hungary may serve as inspiration for other countries as well. In the period preceding the regime change, it underwent a much more significant disruption as compared to regulation-based urban development. Afterwards, its methods, procedures, and instruments suitable for use in a democratic rule-of-law state and under market economy conditions had to be rebuilt from scratch. For this to happen, two external factors provided assistance: the French–Hungarian urban development cooperation and the EU. As a result, we could witness the successful development of the methods as well as of the conceptual, strategic, and operational planning tools forming a coherent system of operational urban development planning carried through with the public sector’s physical intervention into the urban tissue.

Insight Into

Although most economists are skeptical of or puzzled by the Catholic concept of the common good, a rejection of the economic approach as inimical to the common good would be hasty and counterproductive. Economic analysis can enrich the common good tradition in four ways. First, economics embodies a deep respect for economic agency and for the effects of policy and institutions on individual agents. Second, economics offers a rich literature on the nature of unplanned order and how it might be shaped by policy. Third, economics offers insight into the public and private provision of various kinds of goods (private, public, common pool resources). Fourth, recent work on the development and logic of institutions and norms emphasizes sustainability rooted in the good of the individual.

Nowadays in Kyrgyz Republic take a place huge reforms of prosecutors. The implementation of national projects requires a new quality of prosecutorial oversight so that the human rights and law enforcement potential of the prosecutor’s office really contributes to the development of a democratic rule of law. The prosecutor's office as one of the state legal institutions plays an extremely important role in the public and state life of the Kyrgyz Republic. As you know, the successful implementation of socio-economic and socio-political transformations in the state largely depends on existing laws, the observance of which the prosecutor's office is called upon to monitor.

Public And Private Partnerships

The article is devoted to the matters of public-and-private partnerships in the field of housing-and-communal services. The author recognizes, that sustainable urban development requires effective funding with the leading role of municipal finances. At the same time, financing of housing-and-communal sector through the municipal budget only would be too burdensome, while the use of the public-and-private partnership scheme has proved to be the good solution of this problem. However, there is no definite answer: whether the housing-and-communal sector is the most developed zone of public-and-private partnership or, on the contrary, it is an obscure and ineffective zone. The author analyzes the Russian experience of use of the public-and-private partnership scheme in the field of housing-and-communal services and reveals the main problems, which prevent the attraction of the private capital to this sphere. Such rather new trends as so called "box decisions" and "pool" securitization of infrastructure projects are considered in the article. According to the author, the use of these options could contribute to the development of housing-and-communal sector and the city infrastructure as well as the urban development as whole.

Corruption, generally speaking, can be defined as “abuse of power for private gain” that can be classified as grand, petty, and political, depending on the amounts of money lost and the sector where it occurs. Therefore, it is a phenomenon that compromises rule of law, weakens public institutions and democracy, impacting negatively on productivity and economy. Indeed, because of all these implications, it can be analyzed stressing social, economic, politic, or legal perspectives. These features have allowed experts from different fields to investigate the phenomenon, which does not exclusively concern conduct punishable by criminal law, but also conduct that can be considered just an “expression of maladministration” in both the public and private sectors. This chapter seeks to address the legal aspect of corruption. In particular, it overviews the main anti-corruption measures international community has adopted in recent years. By showing the evolution and steps that led to the actual treaty situation, the Authors offer a hint on the goals achieved and those to be achieved.

Despite the large-scale investments of both China and the EU in climate-change mitigation and renewable-energy promotion, the prevailing view on China–EU relations is one of conflict rather than cooperation. In order to evaluate the prospects of cooperation between China and the EU in these policy fields, empirical research has to go beyond simplistic narratives. This paper suggests a conceptual apparatus that will help researchers better understand the complexities of the real world. The relevant actors operate at different levels and in the public and private sectors. The main message of the paper is that combining the multilevel governance and value-chain approaches helps clarify the multiple relationships between these actors.

In recent times, the European Union has been confronted with huge challenges and crises, which, in the absence of prompt and effective measures, call into question the future of the European project itself. The political incongruities, the disintegrating tendencies culminating with Brexit, the divisions between northern and southern states over economic crisis and austerity measures, the refugee waves and their poor integration into society, the rise of populist and extremist currents, etc. have caused anger, confusion and fear among Europeans, influencing the relations between member states and public perceptions. In this unstable context, studying people’s opinion on the EU and its subtle mechanisms becomes an important and pragmatic effort, as the public has the means to pursue action based on its feelings of support or opposition towards the community block. Oana Ștefăniță’s book, Uniunea Europeană – un trend în derivă? proposes such an insight into the world of young European citizens, investigating their interest in European issues, the EU’s place on the agenda of interpersonal conversations, the way they understand and experience the feeling of European belonging, and their perspectives on the future of the Union.

The legal position of a notary public and the types of services he provides crucially affect the complexity of his liability, which arises from performing legally prescribed activities. Actions to protect and realize the public and private interest for a fee represent a risk from which the professional liability of a notary public may arise, which is equated with errors and omissions insurance. This leads to multiple types of liability: civil, disciplinary, offence and criminal. In this paper, the author explores the interest of the state, parties and notaries public in relation to the performance of notary public services to the extent relevant to this paper, the legal basis and manner of concluding professional liability insurance of notaries public, setting cover limits and some specific excluded risks and specific features of occurrence of insured event in professional liability insurance by getting an insight into comparative legal solutions of the law regulating notary public services, and finally the views of domestic and foreign legal theory.

<p>A emergência do estado democrático de direito, o fenômeno do neoconstitucionalismo e a passagem do autoritarismo para a democracia no Brasil apontam para a necessidade de readequação da teoria do direito administrativo. É preciso criar todo um novo contexto pela democratização das bases do direito administrativo. Ainda se mantém viva a racionalidade autoritária que deu origem ao direito administrativo, montada numa estrutura patrimonial e autoritária de poder, com a administração na posição de supremacia. Isso permite à administração pública brasileira se valer de uma base teórica ultrapassada para fundamentar posturas autoritárias. Daí questionar-se qual o papel do direito administrativo na construção de uma administração pública democrática. Um modelo de administrar que sinalize uma maior inserção da democracia no direito administrativo e na administração pública é o desafio atual da disciplina.</p><p> </p><p>The emergence of the Democratic Rule of Law State, the phenomenon of the neoconstitutionalism and the passage from authoritarianism to democracy in Brazil point to the necessity of creating a new context of democratization of the basis of the administrative law. The authoritarian rationality that gave birth to the administrative law is still alive, with the administration taking a position of supremacy. This allows the Brazilian public administration to use a surpassed theory to justify authoritarian postures. Therefore question what the role of the Administrative Law in the construction of a democratic public administration is. A model of administration that signalizes with a wider insertion of democracy in the administrative law and in the public administration is the contemporary challenge of the discipline.</p>
