Socio-economic viability of public management in the context of European integration processes

Abstract

The European Union forms new requirements for the efficiency of public institutions and the gradual transformation of public management. The relationship between the viability of public management to solve internal problems and the dynamics of socio-economic development is obvious. So, the evaluation of the viability of public institutions’ actions related to the socio-economic processes in any country has theoretical and practical significance. The purpose of our study is to assess the socio-economic viability of public management in the context of European integration processes. Within the article, a comprehensive study of the public management viability in EU countries is presented. The specificity of the study is to assess the socio-economic viability of public management on the basis of economic and social indicators of EU countries. According to the overview of scientific works it is a need to use a comprehensive indicator of public management viability evaluation. So, the considerable attention is paid to the deepening of methodical aspects of public management effectiveness on the basis of multicriteria methods. The result of the study is the calculation of the Socio-Economic Viability Index of Public Management. The obtained results prove the relationship between the SocioEconomic Viability Index of Public Management and the progress of economic reforms in the EU, with the possibility of appropriate conclusions for countries to identify strengths and weaknesses, justify priorities and means to achieve them in the context of European integration. These conclusions can be used as a starting point to assess the relationship between the level of development of the European country and the quality of its public management. The study confirmed the thesis on the correlation between the SocioEconomic Viability Index of Public Management and Happy Planet Index, The Global Competitiveness Index, Corruption Perceptions Index, Fragile States Index and сonfirm the possibility of using this indicator to assess public management quality in EU countries.

Internationalisation motives and the multinationality-performance relationship: The case of Polish firms

“…In the context of post-transition economies and based on some earlier evidence, we argue that the internationalisation degree generally leads to better results than focusing solely on the local market. Usually, this result is explained by a set of benefits that may be derived from expanding abroad, including firms' greater flexibility, risk diversification, enhanced image, acquired knowledge and skills, ownership, and economies of scale (Wach, 2017;Szałucka, 2013;Cieślik et al, 2019, Cieślik et al, 2018Kosach, Duka, Starchenko, Myhaylovska, & Zhavoronok, 2020). In general, firms should overcome costs of international expansion that may include e.g.…”

Integrative Viewpoint for Implementing Sustainable Management Agricultural Business Excellence
