• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Currently, Government of Armenia undertakes an ambitious territorial administrative reform with a far-reaching goal to decentralize more power to consolidated local governments. The aim of this specific study is to find out about the problems connected with the decentralization policy and try to suggest the ways of improving the policy. Data collection instruments involve secondary and primary data. The study concentrates specifically on the budget allocations for communities spent through line ministries and governors' offices. The study found that aside from intergovernmental transfers, the central government spends funds on the projects in communities that are not strictly under its discretion. The paper tries to find whether this practice is effective in terms of cost and citizen participation in selection of projects. The main conclusion is that state budget funding for local government purposes is an issue in Armenia that needs to be addressed. Furthermore, it gives hints of how to make central government financial support to local governments effective.
