Financial instruments under Cohesion Policy (CP) are increasingly identified as a more efficient and sustainable alternative to complement traditional grant-based financial support. They are essential in triggering investments characterised by revenue-generating and cost-saving activities. The chapter presents the use of financial instruments for sustainable urban development. In the face of increasing urban needs and budgetary constraints, any measures which maximise private investments, coupled with limited public spending, while contributing to the achievement of the CP objectives of economic, social and territorial cohesion were widely welcomed. Using the Joint European Support for Investments in City Areas (JESSICA) initiative, the chapter outlines a regulatory framework for allocating CP funds to urban development funds. It describes the institutional and administrative system of JESSICA and discusses the experience gained through the implementation of this initiative, paying attention to both significant opportunities and some shortcomings.

This chapter aims to present the principal assumptions of the circular economy (CE), which advocates for the rational exploitation of natural resources and emphasises the significance of a closed and continuous cycle in their utilisation, supporting the concept of sustainable and enduring development. Furthermore, the discussions are designed to underscore the necessity of creating consumption patterns and utilising production functions that, as an essential element of management optimisation, advocate for the closure of the material and energy cycles in anthropogenic processes. This chapter strives to portray CE as an initiative that seeks to completely decouple global economic growth from finite resource consumption.

This study employs a descriptive research design, incorporating a literature survey followed by logical (epistemological) reasoning and a systemic approach. The continuous effort to increase the production capacity of the economy, aiming to enhance social well-being, exerts significant pressure on the environment. The traditional linear production process involves the unsustainable use of natural resources and generates substantial amounts of waste. This model poses a serious risk of depleting natural materials and precipitating climate change disasters, potentially leading to the collapse of economic and social systems. CE advocates a transition from extractive economies, characterised by excessive and wasteful consumption, to economic models founded on resource efficiency, reuse, sharing, and closed loops. This transition can be facilitated by implementing circular business models that offer solutions to extend the product lifecycle, including repairing and improving products, recovering raw materials from by-products, and recycling end-of-life products, or activities encouraging sharing.

Purpose: The current pandemic crisis caused by Covid-19 significantly impacted the processes of European integration. The European Union decided to act within and beyond existing competences and instruments to support the efforts of its Member States, along with regional and local authorities, in the fight against Covid-19. Our study sheds light on the instruments and solutions proposed within the framework of the cohesion and budget policy to tackle the problems related to Covid-19 in Europe. The analysis focuses on two strands: 1) EU assistance offered through cohesion policy (CP) instruments toward above areas; 2) the future evolution of EU budget, and therefore integration shifts, provoked by the Covid-19 crisis.

Design/methodology/approach: The study analyzes statistical data with regard to the use of instruments of the Cohesion Policy under the Covid-19 pandemic, but also the amendments introduced to legal acts and decision-making processes that refer to the multiannual financial framework (MFF) for 2021{\textendash}2027.

Findings: We notice a strong shift of priorities regarding environment transformation, digitalization, and health protection, reflected in the MFF. The coordinative role of European institutions and the redirection of different financial instruments to health care follows the neofunctionalist paradigm and represents a spillover effect resulting from integration. The crisis analyzed from the institutional perspective is seen as a chance to reform the decision-making process, while on the other hand, as a threat to the inclusive integration of all Member States.

Originality and value: The paper is an original contribution on the overall use of both financial and legislative instruments in the times of unprecedented health and economic crisis caused by Covid-19 in the European Union. The text can be a valuable insight for both researchers and practitioners in the field of broadly understood European studies.

This paper sets out to explore the contribution of JESSICA projects to enhancing the territorial cohesion of urban areas. We apply a slightly modified TARGET_TIA methodology to assess the territorial impacts of those projects in the city of Pozna{\'n}. It is found that the JESSICA projects brought about positive territorial effects in deprived urban areas, however, their impacts are quite varied. More exactly, the results demonstrate that projects which most closely addressed the specific needs of the particular urban areas make the greatest contribution to improving the territorial cohesion of a city. It is also suggested that the complexity of JESSICA projects should have a higher priority in granting a JESSICA loan.

The paper examines the issue of whether the process of policy formulation and implementation on urban regeneration in Poland is done pursuant to the rules of a cycle of public policy-making. This is carried out through the use of the functioning cycle of public policy in Poland proposed by Zyba{\l}a (2015) that stresses the specificities of Polish conditions in the public policy-making. Hence, the aim of the study is to provide an overview of public policy-making on urban regeneration in the context of legislative and institutional-administrative practices. In the light of increasingly complex challenges faced by cities, there is a need for the necessary counter-balancing regeneration measures taking a form of state sponsored public policy. Therefore, the Act on Regeneration was adopted in 2015. The paper concludes that the adoption of this Act was dominated by the legislator which, with relatively little contribution from other stakeholders, resulted in a rather unambitious set of legal provisions on regeneration that have not substantially changed the instrumental approach of local authorities to urban regeneration.

The JESSICA initiative has been set up to respond to development needs of urban areas, which are of key importance for stimulation of sustainable economic growth. It is supposed to provide a more efficient alternative to the traditional EU grants for the implementation of developmental projects. The funding available under the JESSICA framework relies on a repayable and recyclable basis. This means that it not only offers revolving funds, increasing financing capacity of EU cohesion policy, but also creates scope for cooperation between public authorities, financial institutions, and private investors to support implementation of this policy. Since JESSICA supports projects being part of an integrated plan for sustainable urban development, its primary challenge is to combine the objectives focused on urban sustainability and policy intervention with revolving financial models that assume, in principle, the long-term viability of projects. However, taking into particular consideration the needs of urban areas and the EU cohesion policy objective on the one hand, and the organisation and operation of financing engineering instruments on the other, JESSICA seems to be a very ambitious undertaking. The evaluations carried out, up to now, have been mainly focused on its legal and institutional framework, or limited to some selected project. Our study concerns the assessment of all projects implemented within the framework of the JESSICA initiative in five Polish regions, namely: Pomorskie, Mazowieckie, {\'S}l{\k a}skie, Wielkopolskie and Zachodniopomorskie, in the years between 2007-2015. To do so, we designed a methodological approach for assessing the extent to which projects implemented under the JESSICA initiative have contributed to achieving its fundamental assumptions. Subsequently, we made an assessment of the results of JESSICA through the conceptual lens of sustainable urban development. The main findings show that the range of achieving the assumptions of the JESSICA funding model by projects diverges widely. Many projects were quite well adjusted to the requirements but there were also projects that fulfilled them to a very limited extent.

Research Design \& Methods: The authors used the logistic regression to build a model showing the association of the variables analysed on the dependent variable. In addition, to point out a relative importance from all possible orderings of explanatory variables and to show the most important one(s), ANOVA method was applied. Findings: Not all the projects co-financed under the JESSICA initiative bring revenues from their main operations. The legal form of a beneficiary plays an important role. Both projects implemented by companies and projects of a relatively high value increase the probability of generating revenues. Location of the project (capital city/ non-capital city of the region) is not significant with regard to capacities to generate revenues. Implications \& Recommendations: JESSICA projects characterised with a high value and implemented by entities having the company status involve private capital and consequently generate capital backflows. They contribute to leverage effects and thereby raise the role of JESSICA as a powerful instrument aimed at rendering existing market failures. It seems that the results of the study might help to design the use of JESSICA resources in the current and the future EU financial perspective. Contribution \& Value Added: The article sheds more light on a still under-researched area of the use of financial instruments in the EU Cohesion Policy. The analysis provides pioneering results and points out the vital issues for future research. }, keywords = {JESSICA; Poland; regeneration; revenue-generating projects; Cohesion Policy}, issn = { 2353-8821 }, doi = {https://doi.org/10.15678/EBER.2019.070208}, url = {https://eber.uek.krakow.pl/index.php/eber/article/view/513}, author = {Ida Musia{\l}kowska and Piotr Idczak} } @inbook {4037, title = {Civic Engagement in Local Politics in Central Europe}, booktitle = {The Routledge Handbook of International Local Government}, year = {2019}, pages = {344-360}, publisher = {Routledge}, organization = {Routledge}, edition = {Richard Kerley, Joyce Liddle, Pamela T.

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.

Results show that urban projects including UES are characterised by the higher values of the economic performance indicators and they should be assessed higher than projects with little or no UES because of their stronger contribution to the sustainable development of urban areas.

JESSICA initiative as a financial engineering instrument was introduced to enhance and accelerate investments in disadvantaged urban areas. The novel aspect of JESSICA is that this instrument should not only support and promote sustainable urban development but also provide incentives that lower risk capital investments and consequently allow to overcome existing market failures. Thus, the paper aims to identify whether JESSICA projects have contributed to generating positive market effects, as well as to indicate the factors that were most responsible for the occurrence of these phenomena. The results show that 75\% out of all projects generated positive market effects in form of new jobs, services or products. The generation of revenues by particular project was the most influential factor determining the capacity of a given project to create positive markets effects.

Regeneration {\textendash} an integrated process of activities undertaken in the spatial, social and economic dimensions should lead to the improvement of the living conditions of inhabitants of degraded urban areas. The European Union in 2007-2013 allocated financial resources for this purpose in the form of JESSICA initiative which is based on financial engineering mechanism. Experiences gained so far allow conclusions to be drawn that JESSICA is a highly financially-efficient instrument but, however, not always delivers the desired outcomes in the spatial and social sphere. The scope of projects often is limited to infrastructural investments and does not reflect the complexity of regeneration process. In the article the authors analyse experiences of the five Polish regions with the use of JESSICA, point out main problems and formulate recommendations for sustainable urban policy.

For this, we draw on the survey data of 374 local politicians from four large cities in Central Europe: Prague, Bratislava, Budapest and Pozna{\'n}. 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{\textquoteright}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.

Between 6 and 8 October 2014, the 12th European Week of Regions and Cities {\textendash} OPEN DAYS {\textendash} 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{\textquoteright}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 Caf{\'e} 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 Kj{\ae}r 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 {\textquoteleft}European Territorial Cooperation{\textquoteright} objective of EU Cohesion Policy, also known as {\textquoteleft}Interreg{\textquoteright}. 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, G{\"o}khan Yalcin, Gordon Modro and Jean-Marc Venineaux develop a list of issues reflecting on {\textquoteleft}capacity and governance{\textquoteright}

The application of a dynamic generation cost indicator (DGC) as a method to evaluate the effi ciency of investments, which allow to select an investment project with the lowest possible cost. The DGC indicator consist of investment costs at the stage of implementation, and operating costs, occurring throughout the period of the economic life of the project. The comparative analysis of the three alternative solutions was made on the example of the Sk{\'o}rzynka catchment with the use of DGC indicator. It helped in the selection of the most optimal solution in social aspect. It has also shown that this method can be successfully used in the initial phase of the decision-making process in the selection of the most eff ective solutions which shape the retention capacity of the river catchment in urban areas.

The current year 2014 allows/has allowed for the first attempts to evaluate the operations, organization and implementation of the Cohesion Policy 2007-2013. The authors have analysed one of the elements that might have an impact on the results obtained under the regional operational programme in the Wielkopolska region in Poland, namely the modes of\ the\ selection of projects. This element of the whole cycle of projects is an\ under-researched subject of scientific analyses even though the project selection itself has been deeply examined by (various) control institutions (the European Court of Auditors, Supreme Audit Offices etc.). The authors use evaluation concepts and a strategic management lens, and formulate five research questions on: the conditions necessary for the transparency of project selection, the main factors determining the choice of the adopted selection mode, the impact of the selection mode on the results, the quality of the work of experts, and the efficiency of the appeal procedures for\ beneficiaries {\textendash} trying to answer all these questions in the subsequent sections of the article. The methods used comprise analyses of legislation, reports, primary data and in-depth-interviews with the stakeholders. The\ research has also practical implications and can be a valuable case-study for policy-makers.

This year, the Visegrad countries celebrate together twenty ve years since the socio, economic and political changes lead in collapse of totalitarian regimes. 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.

In recent years there have been significant changes in the economic environment. These changes mean that the economic potential of all regions has become less closely related to location and increasingly influenced by a variety of {\textquotedblleft}aspatial{\textquotedblright} characteristics. Globalization and technological progress have contributed to reduce the absolute costs of remoteness and to lower their relative role in locational decision-making by companies. Transport costs now account for a relatively small percentage of production costs in most modern industries. It means that aspatial factors have been becoming more important to the economic activity. In this context the concept of peripherality has to be also broader perceived. The peripheral region should be characterized by wide range of spatial and aspatial features. The peripheral region with reference to the multidimensional concept of regional peripherality does not have to be located in a periphery but also near some centre. The identification of peripheral regions, as objects including spatial units similar in terms of many compo-site features, caused the need to apply a multidimensional analysis. It has been conducted by using the method-ology on constructing composite indicators recommended by OECD and European Commission. The process of weighting variables relied on the principle components analysis. In order to identify peripheral regions in a given space the cluster analysis was applied. The analysis comprised all Polish provinces {\textendash} regions at NUTS 2 level. The result of the analysis is that peripheral regions in Poland include the following Provinces: {\L}{\'o}dzkie, {\'S}wi{\k e}tokrzyskie and {\'S}l{\k a}skie, and semi-peripheral regions include the Lubelskie and Podkarpackie Provinces, which confirms the theoretical assumptions presented in this article. Peripheral region does not necessarily have to be located in a periphery, with regard to the new concept of regional peripherality.

The Lisbon Treaty has introduced a collective 18-month Presidency composed of three previously-designated member states (the {\textquotedblleft}Presidency trio{\textquotedblright}). This solution should surly contribute to the increase of cohesion and effectiveness of the EU functioning. However the Lisbon Treaty has also modified previous model of the presidency introducing two new offices: the President of the European Council and the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. This change resulted in the division of duties between rotating presidency held by {\textquotedblleft}trio{\textquotedblright} and fixed presidency held by the two new offices. Therefore the aim of this article is to present the new model of the presidency. Furthermore the relevant task of the presidency is to initiate new direction of the EU{\textquoteright}s development in the form of a long-term action plan. The proposals of initiatives and top priorities defined in the agenda have a significant influence on the EU functioning and its future challenges especially in time of crises.

In recent years there have been significant changes in the economic environment. These changes caused that the economic potential of regions have become less dependent on the location and more associated with a number of other factors. Regions can grow in very varied ways and the simple concentration of resources in one place is not a sufficient condition for sustained growth. The occurrence of interregional disparities, however, does not need to be undesirable. The process of regional development can take many forms. Concentration of desirable resources in specific locations is not necessarily a factor favoring the persistence of growth. Regions deprived of those resources can also have its own unique inner potential. The adoption of standards and mechanisms from other regions that have achieved their success does not necessarily lead to the effective development of lagging regions.
