However, these countries followed different development trajectories and reacted differently to the economic crisis. Some of them still struggle, others thrive, others, afteryears of structural transformation, are stuck in a middle-income trap.Successes and failures as a result of EU cohesion implementation are avaluable source of feedback for future plans. Southern part of the EU, and Central and Eastern Europe provide an excellent opportunity to evaluatethem, The whole implementation exercise is sometimes challenging to accomplish, as both the public and private sectors have low absorption capacity. In contrast, positive experiences also emerged. Regions in Central and Eastern European countries witnessed improvements in the form of change in GDP per capita, benchmarked against the EU average during theyears 2008-2015, while Southern Europe improved similarly between 2000-2008. In this volume, the authors cover a variety of aforementioned problems and experiences of either all member states, with special attention to peripheral countries, or to sectoral or regional problems in selected countries. The book begins with an overview of the issues of economic convergence and quality of life in all member states. It also addresses political aspects of EU cohesion policy, including involvement of civil society into this public policy, as well as relationships between cohesion policy support and EU identification. The final section discusses an important novelty in the framework of EU cohesion policy, namely the JESSICA initiative, that is, an instrument offering repayable and recyclable funding targeted at economically-viable and sustainable urban development projects. Authors are engaged in research on EU cohesion policy and represent severaldisciplines: economics, political and social sciences.10aCentral and Eastern Europe10acohesion policy10aconvergence10aEU funds10aEuropean Union10aregeneration10aSouthern Europe1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr1 aPotluka, Oto uhttps://www.degruyter.com/view/title/580682?language=en01873nas a2200193 4500008004100000020001800041022001800059245005700077210005700134250005200191260002200243300001200265520123800277100001701515700001801532700002301550700001801573856008801591 2019 eng d a9781315306261 a978113823472700aCivic Engagement in Local Politics in Central Europe0 aCivic Engagement in Local Politics in Central Europe aRichard Kerley, Joyce Liddle, Pamela T. Dunning aLondonbRoutledge a344-3603 aCivic engagement and civil society participation in political decision-making is important for efficient and sustainable public policies. However, this behaviour is difficult to achieve and maintain in countries such as post-socialist societies that have passive social attitudes and low levels of general trust. This chapter describes the development and current character of local political systems, decentralisation and civic engagement in four countries in Central Europe: the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. It concentrates on civil society, direct and indirect forms of political participation, the development of civil-society organisation advocacy and citizen opinions about their likelihood of influencing policy. It highlights the low general trust and social capital, passive attitudes, and low voter turnout in these countries compared to other countries in Europe. These features are a legacy of the communist past and are attributable to the negative socioeconomic consequences of the transition process and disillusionment about democratic development. As a result, the development of civil participation in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia has been slower than in other parts of Europe.1 aPotluka, Oto1 aKalman, Judit1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr uhttps://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9781315306278/chapters/10.4324/9781315306278-2301335nas a2200229 4500008004100000022001400041245006700055210006400122260001200186300000900198520066600207653001100873653001000884653003500894653001900929653002000948653002000968100002300988700002201011700002101033856005101054 2018 eng d a1360-059100aEU–China and EU –Brazil policy transfer in regional policy0 aEU–China and EU Brazil policy transfer in regional policy c03/2018 a1-133 aThe paper investigates the European Union (EU)–Brazil and EU–China regional policy dialogues, viewed as vectors of cross-national policy transfer. Regional policy is considered as having limited transfer potential due to its inward orientation, context specificity and complexity. Yet, knowledge exchange and voluntary policy transfer have taken place between the EU and Brazil and between the EU and China since the mid-2000s. The study investigates and compares actors, motivations, mechanisms of transfer, conditioning factors and types of outcomes, shedding a light on the under-researched phenomenon of international policy transfer in regional policy.10aBrazil10aChina10aEuropean Union Cohesion Policy10alesson-drawing10apolicy transfer10aregional policy1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aDabrowski, Marcin1 aPolverari, Laura u https://doi.org/10.1080/00343404.2018.143138901482nas a2200229 4500008004100000245013600041210006900177260001200246300001400258490000700272520064800279653002100927653001900948653002000967653003500987653002001022653003301042100002301075700002201098700002101120856011101141 2018 eng d00aIntroduction: drawing lessons from international policy-transfer initiatives in regional and urban development and spatial planning0 aIntroduction drawing lessons from international policytransfer i c09/2018 a1165-11680 v523 aThe collection of papers in this issue brings new insights to the processes of international policy transfer and learning in the fields of regional and urban development policy, regional innovation and transit-oriented development.

Our empirical study contributes to filling the gap in the literature about the role of non-profit leadership in urban and regional development. We study the characteristics of politicians in civil society and that of civil society’s leaders in politics as a prerequisite for successful local development. For this, we draw on the survey data of 374 local politicians from four large cities in Central Europe: Prague, Bratislava, Budapest and Poznań. The research affirms that non-profit non-governmental organisations do play an important role in local development and reveals similarities in all analysed cities, though with some variance. Local political elites are identified as engaging significantly in civil society organisations, despite low levels of general trust in these countries. About two-thirds of the local politicians who took part in the survey participate actively in civil society organisations in their respective cities but not coming from a previous non-profit non-governmental organisation employment. Not only are they active, but many of them also have positions as managers or directors, or as members of the board of directors in these organisations. Although neither membership nor leadership in non-profit non-governmental organisations appears to increase a local politician’s chance of being elected, except when those are engaged in local development or environmental issues. As spatial leadership plays an important role in the construction of new agendas and identities we have also investigated the views of local politicians on decentralisation, government service provision efficiency and the importance of several local policy topics, and found some puzzling differences across our V4 cities that possibly reflect cultural differences. Non-profit leadership in urban development is a neglected topic so far in the literature, our study adds empirical results from Central and Eastern Europe, yet there is ample room for future research.10aCentral and Eastern Europe10aCzech Republic10aHungary10aleadership10alocal development10alocal elections10anon-profit organizations10aPoland10aSlovakia1 aPotluka, Oto1 aKalman, Judit1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr uhttp://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/026909421770728103426nas a2200373 4500008004100000022002300041245009600064210006900160260001200229300001200241490000600253520230100259100002202560700002102582700002002603700002102623700003302644700001902677700001802696700003002714700002002744700001802764700002402782700001802806700002202824700001802846700001902864700002002883700001702903700002002920700001802940700002502958856006902983 2015 eng d a2168-1376 (Online)00aFuture research on European Union Cohesion Policy: a Master Class during the OPEN DAYS 20140 aFuture research on European Union Cohesion Policy a Master Class c03/2015 a184-2030 v23 a
Between 6 and 8 October 2014, the 12th European Week of Regions and Cities – OPEN DAYS – hosted an early career Master Class for the second time, aiming to improve understanding of European Union (EU) Cohesion Policy and its research potential. Organized by the European Commission’s DG for Regional and Urban Policy (DGREGIO), the Committee of the Regions (CoR) and the Regional Studies Association (RSA), the Master Class brought together 29 doctoral students and early career researchers from 15 EU member states and three non-EU countries.
The evaluation of the Master Class by participants and lecturers revealed a high level of satisfaction with the networking opportunities provided. The World Café session coordinated by John Bachtler from the Strathclyde University received the highest appreciation. As a result of the latter, participants of the Master Class summarized their views on different aspects in the five subsequent articles. Marius Guderjan, Alba Smeriglio and Myrto Tourtouri look into the policy and research challenges for EU Cohesion Policy for the years to come. Neculai-Cristian Surubaru, Koen Salemink, Piotr Idczak and Christian Kjær Monsson discuss the components of administrative capacity, the elements that affect it and instruments that may help improve it. Also with regard to administrative capacity-building for the management of the EU Structural and Investment Funds, Hunor Bajtalan, Chiara Garau, Mariana Soultanova and Alessia Usai propose a stronger research focus on possibilities to reduce political intervention in public administrations and on the role civil society organizations can play in this respect. Finally, two articles focus on research challenges concerning the ‘European Territorial Cooperation’ objective of EU Cohesion Policy, also known as ‘Interreg’. Eduardo Medeiros, Tomasz Szulc and Marco Trienes suggest concentrating on the development of typologies of border regions, the need for a longer-term cross-border planning process, and the use of territorial impact assessment instruments, while Annika Jaansoo, Emily Lange, Gökhan Yalcin, Gordon Modro and Jean-Marc Venineaux develop a list of issues reflecting on ‘capacity and governance’

But the political transition brought also problems and new challenges not know previously. The rst free elections were held in the Visegrad countries that time and their inhabitants could choose their political representatives. Many of them came originally from the civil society and revolution movements. However, the political decision-making became disconnected from the civil society over time. We study the present rootedness of local political representatives in the civil society measured by their membership and leadership in civil society organisations in all four Visegrad countries. We are as well interested in engagement of activists from the civil society in an institutionalised political life, i.e. political parties and political movements. The purpose of this book is to discuss development of local democracy, local development initiatives and local social capital in growing urban areas in post-transition countries in which the civil society was almost absent or very weak twenty ve years ago. This publication comes up with overviews of the situation in four cities, one in each of the Visegrad countries. First the Polish case of Poznan is discussed. Then three capital cities follow: Czech Prague, Slovakian Bratislava and Hungarian Budapest.

Dla osiągnięcia zakładanych w Ramowej Dyrektywie Wodnej celów środowiskowych dla poszczególnych dorzeczy zostały zaplanowane działania podstawowe (A i B) oraz szczegółowe. W pracy dokonano analizy porównawczej kosztów inwestycyjnych wynikających z działań programowych mających na celu osiągnięcie i utrzymanie co najmniej dobrego stanu wód na tle nakładów ponoszonych na inwestycje związane z gospodarowaniem zasobami wodnymi w latach 2001-2010. Pożądany stan i jakość zasobów wodnych jest jednym czynników warunkujących rozwój społeczno-gospodarczy. W tym kontekście istotne są działania z zakresu racjonalizacji gospodarowania zasobami wód, które zapobiegają występowaniu stanów niekorzystnych. Znaczenie tego sektora dla rozwoju społeczno-gospodarczego kraju potwierdza także rosnący udział nakładów inwestycyjnych na działania dotyczące gospodarowania zasobami wodnymi zarówno w stosunku do PKB, jak i inwestycji gospodarki narodowej ogółem. Kluczowe znaczenie w nakładach inwestycyjnych oraz w planowanych kosztach w planach gospodarowania wodami na obszarach dorzeczy mają inwestycje związane z gospodarką wodno-ściekową.
