Mayors as a variable in typologies of local governments: a case study of the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The study focuses on the position of mayors in the self government of municipalities in the Czech Republic. The typology of municipal governments classifies the Czech Republic in the collective form category. The aim of the case study is to look for a way to supplement existing approaches to the typology of local governments. We emphasise the factual role of mayors in the formulation of development goals of municipalities, their initiative and weight in decision-making on budgets and investment actions. The study is based on data obtained through a questionnaire survey of municipal representatives and interviews with representatives of selected municipalities. Based on the results of both surveys, it is possible to prove that in spite of their not very strong legislative position, mayors can play a key role as initiators of investment projects and in promoting the municipal development agenda.
