What is More Important ? Democracy or Efficiency ? Case Study of Municipalities in the Czech Republic
Original language description
The term ?good governance? is discussed at international, national and sub-national levels of the different public administration systems. In practice, debate often focuses on strengthening the elements of democracy and the possibilities of greater citizens? participation on decision-making in local governance and also on the performance of local governments in the provision of local public services. This chapter hopes to contribute to this debate. The aim is to discuss the particular aspects of good governance, such as the principles of democracy and efficiency and their role in policy making at the level of small municipalities in the Czech Republic. The question of what is more important, democracy or effectiveness, has no firm answer, but as results show, politicians do not have to decide about what is more important in the Czech Republic.
