LOCAL SERVICES IN MACEDONIA AND ITS FUTURE PERSPECTIVES

Year 2017, Volume: 8 , 80 - 84, 10.12.2017

Abstract

The administrative
organization of the government of the Republic of Macedonia can be central and
decentralised. It is proven that in developing countries it is difficult to put
the concept of decentralization into practice. Such is the case of Macedonia.
The Republic of Macedonia has a single-tier system of local government.
Macedonia's local governmental reforms are long-term processes due to the
country’s need to fulfil objectives such as local-level capacity enhancement,
improving relations between local and the central government, changing the
bureaucratic mind set in administration etc. To sum up, this work puts forward
the organizational structure of administration in Macedonia, or, to put it
better, the positive and negative aspects of local government, which give us
information about how much progress is recorded at the local level of
governance. Questions like the approach of Macedonian local governance, the
legal framework and weaknesses and how these processes develop, how far we can
go and how we can get more impressive and successful seek deep examination to
reach the answers.

 





This research, which is a
research on local governance, is based on socio-technical methods, and the
topic which makes active most this work is the research carried on in three
municipalities in the country (Tetovo, Bogovinye, Yegunovça) by observing and
analysing the organizational structure of local government and service of each.
Thus, the main goal of this work is to examine and research whether the
aforementioned municipalities provide or not local services, in which domain
they offer services, and what they have done to improve themselves. In the same
period, people we studied, methods used while they received municipal services,
central-local relations, examine the attitudes of local government taking over
administrative organization.
