The prominent role of the public administration is a key aspect to understand why and how Milan became the “Italian city of expositions” since the national unification, in 1861. The municipality has indeed being taking a set of initiatives for promoting a strong and shared growth, along with various stakeholders in the local community. As a result of this policy Milan has become a benchmark in national and international markets, providing an ideal environment for successful events that highlighted both the industrial progress of the city and its leading role in strategic planning for innovative projects. Thus Milan has been considered as the ‘moral capital’ of Italy, an inspiring example for the whole nation and, furthermore, as a world metropolis. The National Exposition of 1881, the International Expo of 1906, the «Fiera Campionaria», the annual conventions and expositions for professionals, along with Expo 2015 are just a few examples of its reputation of excellence that lives on through the ages.

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.

Resumo: Procura-se discutir neste artigo as estratégias e as contradições na Segurança Pública do Estado do Paraná na política de controle de Homicídios que redundou na criação das UPS’s – Unidades Paraná Seguro no município de Curitiba. A ênfase em modelos puramente repressivos serviu como guia em áreas degradadas da cidade marcadas pela anomia e pelas fragilidades das políticas sociais. A discussão principal está na análise dos resultados ao evidenciar um incremento dos homicídios em razão da constituição destas unidades criadas pela Polícia Militar do Estado do Paraná, com pouco ou nenhum relacionamento com outras esferas da administração pública ou mesmo com a Polícia Civil e com efeitos observáveis sobre desorganização do espaço social. Palavras-chave: homicídios, segurança pública, UPS - Unidade Paraná Seguro. Abstract: This article seeks to discuss the strategies and the contradictions of the Public Security of the State of Paraná with respect to the murder-control policy which resulted in the creation of UPS’s – Safe-Paraná Police Units in the city of Curitiba.  Emphasis on purely repressive models played a leading role in the run-down areas of the city where anomy and insufficient social policies were notorious. The main issue is related to the result analysis which showed an increase in the murder rate derived from the creation of those units under control of the Military Police of the State of Paraná with little or no relationship with other Public-Administration areas or even with the Civil Police of the State of Paraná. Key Words: murders; Public Safety; UPS – Safe Paraná Unit

Copernican Revolution

Mark Bevirʼs A Theory of Governance proposes a Copernican revolution in the way we understand the role of social science in public administration. Conventional accounts assign social science the role of instructing public administrators how to steer its machinery towards the public interest, based on social scienceʼs alleged ability to explain how people act and what they need. Bevir offers a vision of public administration in which ordinary people take a leading role by engaging in dialogues in which they articulate their needs. In this vision, the role of social science is to facilitate those public dialogues. This essay offers a sympathetic critical evaluation of Bevirʼs exploration of what it means to understand social science as a facilitator.

This contribution, written by an urban designer and an educationist, aims at (re)focusing the attention of the interdisciplinary debate on the active role of children within the public urban realm or – as we could rephrase it – on the potential influences that the city, its structure, regulations and spaces has on children intended as a vulnerable population group. In order to do so, some reflections on the relationship between “the child and the city” are presented, also supported by an original walk-to-school research conducted in the Italian city of Cassino, investigating children's active and independent mobility, and by a conceptual model based on the classification of children's physical activity as either “independent” or “non-independent”. Finally, a discussion on the pivotal role of public spaces is developed, briefly presenting some virtuous project examples.

Traditional Approaches

E-governance is a paradigm shift over the traditional approaches in Public Administration which means rendering of government services and information to the public by using electronic means. In the past decades, service quality and responsiveness of the government towards the citizens were least important but with the approach of E-Government the government activities are now well dealt. This paper withdraws experiences from various studies from different countries and projects facing similar challenges which need to be consigned for the successful implementation of e-governance projects. Developing countries like India face poverty and illiteracy as a major obstacle in any form of development which makes it difficult for its government to provide e-services to its people conveniently and fast. It also suggests few suggestions to cope up with the challenges faced while implementing e-projects in India.

The article studies the main stages and features of the evolution of the public administration system in the Republic of Estonia after 1992. This paper presents brief geographical and socio-economic characteristics that largely determine the development of the country’s public administration. The evolution of the institution of the presidency, executive, and legislative powers are considered. The role of parliament and mechanisms for coordinating the interests of different groups of the population for the development of the country is especially emphasized. The authors analyze the state and administrative reforms of recent years, which were aimed at improving the quality of services provided to the population, increasing the competitiveness of different parts of Estonia, as well as optimizing public spending and management structure. The introduction of digital technologies into the sphere of public administration, healthcare, education, and the social sphere is of a notable place. Such phenomena as e-residency, e-federation, and other digital projects are considered. The development of a digital system of interstate interaction between Estonia and Finland made it possible to create the world’s first e-federation, and the digitization of all strategically important information and its transfer to cloud storage speaks of the creation of the world’s first e-residency, a special residence of data outside the country’s borders to ensure digital continuity and statehood in the event of critical malfunctions or external threats.
