Public expenditure efficiency has been an issue of concern for many researchers. Studies have shown that public budget of the developed and developing economies is not optimally allocated and managed. Anyway, discrepancies are found between both economies. This paper aims to investigate and critical analyze the allocation of public expenditure in the Republic of Albania. In addition, it provides some relevant comparison of the performance indicators among Albania, regional countries and OECD states. Data provided by the Ministry of Finance and Open Access Data are evaluated by considering the functional classification of the budget expenditure. Results of this study suggest that Albania spends more on social protection and social security, and less on education and health compared with the average of the EU countries and OECD countries. In addition, inefficiency of the public sector is discovered. This research recommends the necessity in the improvement of input allocation by using 70 percent less resources to achieve the same amount of public output and consequently contributing positively on fiscal consolidation.

In Western democracies it is held that parties and their positions affect how politicians choose to make public expenditure and investment. This article examines the public policy choices of politicians in India, a large well-established democracy with remarkable subnational variation. Public expenditure, from education and health to agriculture and irrigation, is analysed. Counterintuitive findings – that election timing and political factors play a strong role in the subnational states, and that party competition increases investment in education – are explained by highlighting the role economic and political uncertainty plays in politicians’ choices. Building a ‘Polanyi’ argument enhanced by a supply-side mechanism highlights the importance of compensation and insurance and the imperatives of political stability for subnational politicians, who attempt to maximize re-election chances in an uncertain environment.

Resumo: Nesta pesquisa se analisa a violação da progressividade e da proibição de retrocesso em matéria de direito à saúde em face ao “Novo Regime Fiscal”, instituído pela Emenda à Constituição n. 95/2016. Para tanto, expõe-se que os direitos fundamentais sociais geram custos, assim, impactam no Orçamento Público, considera-se que a mudança do indexador dos gastos públicos em saúde gerará um impacto negativo no Orçamento e, por fim, demonstra-se que o “Novo Regime Fiscal” impõe uma situação normativa mais prejudicial à efetivação do direito à saúde, com base na doutrina e dogmática constitucional. Utiliza-se uma abordagem metodológica descritiva, coletando as informações e os principais conceitos utilizados por meio de revisão bibliográfica, pesquisa documental e análise de jurisprudência. Ao final pondera-se que o art. 110, II do Ato das Disposições Constitucionais Transitórias (ADCT), do Novo Regime Fiscal, viola a Constituição da República no que concerne à progressividade do direito à saúde.Palavras-chave: Novo Regime Fiscal. Progressividade. Proibição de retrocesso. Direito à saúde. Abstract: This research analyzes the violation of the progressiveness and prohibition of social regression in the right to health in relation to the "New Tax Regime", established by the amendment n. 95/2016.

It uses a descriptive methodological approach, collecting the information and key concepts used by means of bibliographical revision, documentary research and analysis of jurisprudence. At the end it demonstrates that the article 110, II of the Transitional Constitutional Provisions Act (ADCT), created by the New Tax Regime, violates the Constitution of the Republic regarding the progressivity of the right to health.Keywords: New Tax Regime.

Over the past 40 years, the service sector has become the dominant area of market economies. The public sector and services financed from public financing represent a specific group within the services sector. This paper aims to evaluate the efficiency of EU countries and find the extent to which the volume of public services (and the respective financial allocations) can have an impact on selected economic indicators. To this end, the efficiency of public expenditure in five areas of public services (general public services; health; education; social protection; and recreation, culture, and religion) in 2009 and 2016 was evaluated in relation to selected economic indicators (GDP per capita and employment in services). In addition, the efficiency of public expenditure in EU countries was evaluated in relation to the size of the public sector and traditions of public administration. For cross-country analyses within the 27 European countries, data envelopment analysis and the input-oriented variable returns to scale (VRS) model were applied. The results demonstrated that in 2009, 13 out of 27 countries were efficient as opposed to 2016, where only seven countries were efficient. In countries with bigger size of public sector, the efficiency of public expenditure on services was not established. However, there was a similarity in the efficiency of public expenditure on services between groups of EU countries regarding the tradition of public administration.

The indicators that determine the change in the macroeconomic situation in the economy of Azerbaijan in 2010–2017, as well as the conditions for increasing the effectiveness of state intervention in solving economic problems are analyzed. It is noted that it is not the size of the public sector that becomes important, but its qualitative component (management and redistribution of resources and revenues, coordination of government intervention in economic relations). The main reasons limiting economic growth are identified, and the mechanisms for overcoming them are disclosed, since economic growth is of particular importance in the transformational period of state development. It substantiates the assertion that the forms and methods of state regulation should be the result of a reasonable combination of the private and public sectors of the economy to more effectively achieve the goal of economic development of the country and increase the welfare of the population. To this end, it is advisable to limit the actions of market forces and find a rational ratio of market and government measures that stimulate economic growth and development.It is shown that in the near future the development of the economy of Azerbaijan should be focused on the transition to the integration of various models of economic transformation; at the same time, “attraction of investments” should be carried out by methods of stimulating consumption, and the concept of a socially oriented economy, which the state also implements, should prevail, thereby ensuring social protection of the population and at the same time developing market relations. Disproportions in regional and sectoral development are also noted, which are the result of an ineffective distribution of goods produced, inadequate investment in human capital, a low level of coordination and stimulation of economic growth and development.
