In order to support the decision-making process related to the reduction of land consumption into the urban regeneration interventions, the present research has the aim to define and propose a goal programming-based model that can be adopted for the negotiation phases of public and private subjects involved. In particular, the proposed model can provide for a range of feasible scenarios that, according to the specific purposes of the Public Administration, can be implemented in order to achieve the financial, environmental and social level of sustainability targets set by the Agenda 2030. In this way even the private entrepreneur can verify his personal convenience to participate in the investment. Furthermore, the possibility provided by the model to choose a different combination of urban parameters that define the convenience of interventions before their implementation, could reduce the increasingly significant problem of badly concluded interventions, interrupted because they lack an effective ex ante evaluation.

The debate on public real estate enhancement is prominent and requires innovative strategies to assure economic and social sustainability. This article aims at systematizing the currently available methods and tools of public property enhancement in Italy, proposing a system of criteria to support the public administration (PA) in the decision-making process when managing public real estate enhancement oriented towards public utility. Namely, this article considers and assesses consolidated and innovative public real estate enhancement methods and tools currently available to the Italian PA according to the “endogenous criteria” of the real estate tools and “criteria of purpose” of the public administration promoting the enhancement process. The final aim is to support the decision-making process of PAs and help both public and private actors in grasping and managing the complexity of public real estate enhancement. An overview of the literature and of reference laws on public property enhancement builds the research framework, together with a path of research, dialogues, and fieldworks with the Italian State Property Agency (Agenzia del Demanio). The decision-making process of PAs for selecting a suitable enhancement strategy or tool should rest on endogenous criteria and criteria of purpose. Specifically: (i) the distinct technical features of each public asset; (ii) the public utility aim that the public entity intends to pursue; (iii) the needs of the community (i.e., the demand); (iv) the skills available within the PA that promotes the strategy.

Privatization, contracting out, and a host of other current trends blur the line between public and private—they create what at best is a fuzzy line. This study examines yet one additional area where the lines between public and private have gotten even fuzzier—the best selling novel. It uses the writings of Tom Clancy and Clive Cussler,two authors whose names on a novel guarantee best-seller status. It will do so in the context of what a civic community and civil society are, and how they relate to the public-private question, a question that has renewed life in public administration.

The aim of this study has been to investigate and provide a deeper understanding of the motives of silence towards the participation in the work-related decisions, in both the public and private schools in the Jordanian capital (Amman). ‘100’ teachers were interviewed using the semi-structured interviews through the available communication means. The pre-set questions were directed to the sample of the study to identify both the situations related to the decisions and motives leading to silence and non-participation from the respondents' point of view. The motives were classified according to the factors to which they belong, as well as the situations were classified according to each stage of the decision-making process, where some specialists in the field of human resources management had been asked to help in accomplishing the classification. The results showed that the largest percentage of respondents faced at least one situation in which they chose to remain silent. Most of the situations mentioned were related to the first and last stage of decision-making process (identifying the problem and following up the decision). The results also showed that most of the motives were related to the organizational practices by the officials, where the total iteration is twice as the personal motives.

The possibility of its development on the basis of general norms of civil, economic, administrative and other branches of law is emphasized. The process of development and adoption of separate laws on public-private partnership and their specific features are described. The essence of discussions about the need for creation of a special authorized body for regulation of public-private partnership, which was caused by the problems that arose from public and private partners during the conclusion and implementation of the relevant agreements, was disclosed. The modern components of organizational support for supporting the development of public-private partnership in Poland, their role and their inherent functions are revealed: the Department for Public-Private Partnerships of the Ministry of Investment and Development, similar departments in public administration bodies of different levels, the Public-Private Partnership Platform, Polish Entrepreneurship Development Agency, Institute of Public Private Partnership, private law firms, scientific and educational institutions. The necessity to improve the institutional support of public-private partnership, which is realized by the government of Poland as well, is stated.

2020 is a year of global change. The spread of the COVID-19 virus was an impetus for transformation. The entire globe confronts impediments hard-to-anticipate, but who endangers people’s life. This article refers to the transparency of the decision-making process in the pandemic period. Also, it is explained the communication problems that can appear in complicated situations between the public administration and the citizen. Both the authorities of the European Union, in general, and of the Republic of Moldova, in particular, encounter social problems, which must be resolved in a very short period. Many decisions must be made promptly and unforeseen. It is important that this process does not affect the quality of public services provided and does not infringe on the rights of citizens. Thus, the decision-making process must be transparent and accessible to citizens

Reduction Of Costs

Abstract Currently, corruption has been so generalized and sophisticated that threatens to undermine the own society structure. Corruption is a problem identified in all the countries. What changes is how we deal with it. Nevertheless, why is there so much corruption? Within the group of factors, it is possible to highlight the high bureaucracy that reduces the efficiency of the public administration; the presence of a slow Judiciary Branch which is very low is terms of efficiency, when reprimanding illicit practices that incite everything ending up in pizza (this sentence was literally translated from Portuguese, it does not exist in English, but it means that impunity prevails in Brazil.); the existence of a corporatist sense among the Administration industries in the public sector in relation to the private sector and so facilitating corruption. The penalty for corruption should be constrained to mechanisms that allow the system of criminal justice to carry out actions of arrest, prosecution, penalty and repair to the country. Combating corruption complies with the republican ideal for the reduction of costs in Brazil. Moralizing the public-private relations offers juridical security to the market. The fact that some countries, especially Brazil, are seriously combating against corruption brings hope, with an eye on a more rigid legislation and less bureaucratic as well, with the end of the corporatist sense and the equivalence of salaries between the public and private sector. We shall provide effective criminal, administrative and civil penalties of inhibiting nature for future action; we shall provide cooperation between the law applicator and the private companies; we shall prevent the conflict of interests; we shall forbid the existence of “black fund” at the companies and we shall encouraged the relief or reduction of taxes to expenses considered as bribery or other conducts related

RESUMOCom a entrada em vigor da Lei nº 12.846/2013, também conhecida como Lei Anticorrupção, que entre os seus principais dispositivos buscam inovar o ordenamento jurídico pátrio ao disciplinar a responsabilidade administrativa e civil de pessoas jurídicas pela prática de atos contra a administração pública. A importância da legislação sobressai diante da busca de uma nova visão interpretativa e sancionatória com o claro objetivo de alcançar a redução da prática de atos de corrupção, tendo em vista que eliminar tão ignóbil e abjeta prática da realidade brasileira se mostra totalmente impossível. Em face do texto legal recentemente sancionado a Lei nº 12.846/13 passa a exigir que as empresas públicas e privadas venham a se adaptarem às inovações propostas. Como principal consequência da “Lei Anticorrupção” encontra se obrigatoriedade de implantação de mecanismos de prevenção e planejamento estratégico, a fim de monitorarem o relacionamento com a Administração Pública, com o intuito de evitar a aplicação das severas penalidades previstas. Por sua vez, os mecanismos inseridos na Lei anticorrupção tem o escopo de controlar as práticas empresariais, bem como consolidar a integridade das práticas de relacionamento entre as empresas, as quais permitirão alçar um novo patamar de cultura cidadã e ética no âmbito empresarial, que reverterá para toda a sociedade. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Responsabilidade Civil e Administrativa; corrupção; complience; controle administrativo. ABSTRACT With the entry into force of Law No. 12,846 / 2013, also known as the Anti-Corruption Law, which among its main provisions seek to innovate the legal order of the country by disciplining the administrative and civil liability of legal entities for the practice of acts against the public administration. The importance of legislation stands out in the search for a new interpretive and sanctioning vision with the clear objective of achieving a reduction in the practice of acts of corruption, since eliminating such ignoble and abject practice of the Brazilian reality is totally impossible. In light of the recently enacted legal text, Law No. 12.846 / 13 requires that public and private companies adapt to the proposed innovations. As a main consequence of the "AntiCorruption Law", it is mandatory to implement prevention and strategic planning mechanisms in order to monitor the relationship with the Public Administration, in order to avoid the application of severe penalties. In turn, the mechanisms included in the Anti-Corruption Law have the scope to control business practices, as well as to consolidate the integrity of the relationship practices between companies, which will allow to raise a new level of citizen culture and ethics in the business sphere, which will revert for the whole society. KEYWORDS: Civil and Administrative Liability; corruption; complience; administrative control.

Over the past few decades, many governments throughout the world have promoted gender-responsive budgeting (GRB). With its focus on equality, accountability, transparency and participation in the policy-making process, GRB shares some relevant principles with public governance that call governments at national and subnational levels to rethink their roles in the whole economic system. This worldwide political and managerial interest does not find sufficient space in academic discussion, mainly in terms of public administration and management studies. Adopting an interpretative approach, the present study aims to investigate how an Italian municipality has involved stakeholders in the GRB process. The case study shows that, when GRB is fully developed, the stakeholders involved are both internal and external, and these multiple actors, in pursuing gender equality, cooperate to achieve a common, public aim. In this way, GRB gives effectiveness to the public decision-making process, contributing to greater incisiveness in the local government’s management and creation of a gender-sensitive governance process.
