The article discusses the issues related to organizational changes in the Polish police, the role of the management and executive staff in the changes after the transformation after 1989. The author also presents a comparative analysis of the results of research on the quality of management information in the Polish police in 2002 and 2016. The analysis presented indicates that the Polish police still requires many changes, although many years have passed since the political transformation in 1989. The process of improving police work organisation should always be the main object of attention of the police management. Ensuring efficient and effective implementation of public tasks is one of the key problems of administration bodies, both on national and local level. The role of public institutions’ managers is to develop structure, processes, work organisation in order to fully satisfy citizens’ needs and optimise use of resources. According to the author, it is necessary to combine tactical tasks with police strategy. Organizational structures require constant development and more flexible solutions should be adopted. It seems that it is necessary, as in previous years, to establish a team which will prepare an analysis of the functioning of the Police organisation in a holistic way and indicate the directions of its improvement.

SDGs-4, the quality education is one of the factors in achieving the goals of the SDGs. The problem is that the SDGs look ambitious in integrating local level policies that are responsive to political interests. The research used a mixed method of exploration, searching for interview data and questionnaires. The results showed that the implementation of the SDGs was strongly influenced by local democracy. The implementation of the promotion of SDGs requires strengthening local politics and democracy, including; the quality of the Pilkada, the role of the community, political parties, media control, and public meetings. The influence of local democracy on policy implementation is 51.5%. Policy implementation has a positive effect on the implementation of the SDGs with a value of 0.187. The influence of local democracy and policy implementation on the promotion of SDGs-4 is 64.2% and the remaining 35.8% is influenced by other factors.

This study elaborates the elements which are important in the development of the smart city strategy, both at national and local level. They should provide a good foundation for the development of a longterm sustainable and comprehensive smart city concept. When developing the strategy itself, it is necessary to follow the examples of the smart cities in Europe, Region and based on their experience, to identify advantages and disadvantages in order to form clear goals and vision. This study also gives the proposal for defining the elements necessary for establishing the smart cities development strategy as a solution for improving the quality of life in cities, and therewith overall social and economic sustainable development of a country. Montenegro and the city of Budva have been developed as a case study. Montenegro is keeping pace with technological development and therewith the need to define a development strategy for its smart cities.

This paper investigates the determinants of firm innovation in Indonesia. Using quality of local regulations index constructed by the Indonesia’s Regional Autonomy Watch (KPPOD) as measure of institutions, We found that better institutional quality at the local level was associated with more innovation and that firms experiencing major obstacle in access to finance were less likely to innovate. Access to finance is more critical for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) whereas institutional quality is more important for large firms. The positive impact of better institutions on innovation is asymmetrically distributed. Better local institutional quality disproportionately benefited non-constrained firms.AbstrakMakalah ini menyelidiki faktor-faktor penentu terjadinya inovasi pada perusahaan di Indonesia. Sebagai proksi kelembagaan digunakan variabel Peraturan Daerah yang dibuat oleh Komite Pemantuan Pelaksanaan Otonomi Daerah (KPPOD). Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa kualitas kelembagaan yang baik pada tingkat daerah erat kaitannya dengan tingkat inovasi yang lebih tinggi dan perusahaan-perusahaan yang mengalami kendala akses keuangan cenderung tidak melakukan inovasi. Faktor akses keuangan lebih menentukan bagi perkembangan inovasi perusahaan perusahaan kecil dan menengah sedangkan kualitas kelembagaan lebih menentukan bagi perusahaan besar. Dampak positif dari kelembagaan yang baik terhadap tingkat inovasi terdistribusikan secara asimetris dan faktor kelembagaan yang baik lebih berdampak positif terhadap perusahaan yang tidak mengalami kendala keuangan.Kata kunci: Akses Keuangan; Inovasi Perusahaan; Faktor Penentu Inovasi; Kesenjangan Inovasi; KelembagaanJEL classifications: O38; O53; G38

O mundo contemporâneo apresenta uma série de desafios para o sistema da arte. Mudanças econômicas, sociais, culturais e organizacionais na década passada produziram um mercado global de arte cuja influência já atinge desde a produção artística à programação de importantes instituições. O número de museus privados cresce, enquanto instituições públicas não possuem verba para investir em novas aquisições para suas coleções. Nesse cenário, nos perguntamos: em 50 ou 100 anos, o que estará legitimado nas coleções institucionais referentes à atualidade? Onde estarão as obras mais significativas dos artistas brasileiros contemporâneos? Quem serão os artistas brasileiros mais reconhecidos? Quais critérios estéticos estão sendo legitimados através dos mecanismos dessa nova institucionalização no Brasil? Quais narrativas acompanharão a historicizacão da arte contemporânea brasileira? Que papel o mercado e os colecionadores privados têm desempenhado na definição de histórias da arte em construção?Palavras-chave: Mercado de arte; Legitimação; Papel do colecionador; História da arte; Arte brasileira.Abstract:The contemporary world presents a series of challenges for the art system.

Territorial Differentiation

There is a growing consensus within both policy and academic circles, including various schools of political, legal, and economic thought, that institutions matter and that the quality of institutions and governments makes an important difference for economic development. However, while the institutional literature has extensively discussed different types of institutions and their importance, only a few quantitative measures of formal institutions and their quality are available. What is more, most analyses referring to the quality of public institutions concern the national or regional level and the issue at the local level is relatively understudied. The purpose of the article is to fill this gap in two ways. The first one is to identify territorial differentiation of the quality of public institutions at the local level in Poland; the second one, to explain the reasons of the differentiation of institutional capacities in the context of historical, cultural, and social factors. The research has shown that the quality of public institutions is highly related to historical circumstances. However, although their impact is strong, the historical conditions are definitely not the only factor influencing local institutional capital in Poland, as they appear to be deeply affected also by the level of urbanization and the degree of human capital.

This chapter examines how a university can offer mindset-changing experiences to benefit local communities and students; arouse awareness to the way we work, do business and relate to each other and to our environment; and maximise the involvement of individuals and groups in solidarity economy movements. A three year action research programme developed by Methodist University of Sao Paulo in Montanhao, a poor Sao Bernardo do Campo neighbourhood offered supported the development of projects, programmes and management tools, supported the development of a repertoire of community-focused social technologies, and highlighted cultural and local knowledge. The programmes offered a real contribution to the empowerment of communities and the development of the quality of life at a local level, especially adapting business plan methodologies towards the goal of developing the solidarity economy, spreading income more fairly, and increasing the groups’ self-esteem, while developing students’ skills. It also focused skills available in an academic environment on contributing to local development demands, creating a new values platform based in collective development, associational skills, and environmental and local awareness, especially for local women who represented 70% of all solidarity economy movement participants.
