The Meaning of Legitimacy in the Local Political Process
Original language description
The principle aim of my article is to describe various concepts of legitimacy and their theoretical framework and to evaluate the possibility of their application in the local political process. The legitimacy of local political institutions can be perceived as one of the conditions of their stability and efficiency in relation to the rural development. The approaches and concepts of legitimacy of Max Weber, Luhmann, Tyler and Zimmerman and Zeitz are compared in the first part of article. To apply theseclassifications to local political institutions entails some theoretical and methodological problems, e. g. to distinguish legitimacy relating to communal politician from personal trust, ill-defined indicators of legitimacy, etc. Attempts to describe the single classification of the legitimacy of local institutions appear to be highly unproductive. On the contrary analysing various examples of legitimizing local magistrates and councils indicates that the communal legitimacy can be high
