Digital transformation speeds up and strengthens an already growing demand for a well-functioning public administration with e-governmental services. The outbreak of the global Covid-19 pandemic edged such actions forward even more. Public administration with embedded institutions enables the formulation of a competitive environment. The implication of digital services can decrease the negative effects of an economic crisis. Evidence-based policy-making is a component of good governance next to transparency, sustainability, efficiency, integrity and an approach of being people-centric. Digitalisation brings new challenges for public service and governments are taking various measures in response to them. There is an evolving need for citizen-centric electronic public administration services. National performance can be expansively analysed in a globalised world – with international comparisons. The paper conducts an international comparative analysis about the developments of citizen-centric digital transformation in public administration after 2014 with special focus on Hungary and selected reference countries.

The digitisation of public sector ICT is driven by a number of factors: Increased self- service via the Internet, the Internet of Things (IoT), real-time business intelligence and the advent of integrated information systems as the “backbone” of organisational ICT. This is accentuated by the Covid-19 pandemic. The paper presents an implemented university level teaching programme that covers the topics of integrated information systems for the environment described above. The paper also deals with the research question of how to embed such a programme in a conventional, public sector-oriented university course programme. It details the didactic specificities and analyses the feedback from the roll out and the prior knowledge required from students and the changes in other elements of a public administration course programme necessitated by digitisation orientation. It finally summarises the experience made and illustrates the necessity for further research.

Zeger van der Wal’s latest book entitled ‘The 21st Century Public Manager: Challenges, People and Strategies’ published in 2017 is in many ways a unique and milestone work, truly global in scope and ambition, both in its mapping of the complex 21st century landscape of public administration, and in offering a clear perspective for practitioners, while also inspiring them on their journeys. Along these lines, the value of the book is in its basic premise that “public management matters” and that of the demanding rethinking of the roles, responsibilities, skills and strategies of purposeful public servants while navigating in the ever-changing VUCA world – one characterised by volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity. The book was intended to serve as a practical manual and indeed is an extremely useful guide, being an asset for professionals, students and educators who wish to follow a logical framework in understanding contemporary public policy challenges.

A monográfia újszerűsége annak interdiszciplináris megközelítésmódjában rejlik, ahol a szerző tökéletes arányérzékkel tárgyalja a téma legfontosabb jogi és közgazdasági aspektusait, részletesen kitérve az azok közötti összefüggésekre. A könyv értékét növeli a több helyen megjelenő, érvekkel alátámasztott kritikai gondolkodásmód, illetve a szerző azon konstruktív javaslatai, amelyeket az egyes problémák megoldási lehetőségeiként fogalmaz meg.

Der vorliegende Beitrag vermittelt eine Übersicht über verschiedene Bereiche des öffentlichen Personalrechts, dargestellt am Beispiel des Bundespersonalgesetzes und der dazugehörenden Verordnungen, die für die öffentlich-rechtlich angestellten Personen des Bundes gelten. Die Begründung des Arbeitsverhältnisses erfolgt heute zunehmend durch einen öffentlich-rechtlichen Vertrag und nicht mehr durch eine Verfügung. Zulässig sind befristete und unbefristete Arbeitsverhältnisse. Eine Entlassung ist, anders als bei einem Arbeitsverhältnis im privaten Sektor, nur im Fall eines sachlich hinreichenden Grundes zulässig. Der Beitrag beleuchtet neben der Entstehung und der Auflösung des Arbeitsverhältnisses zahlreiche weitere Bereiche wie Lohn, Ferien, Fragen der Verantwortlichkeit, die Rechtstellung der obersten Beamten und das Pensionssystem.

A considerable part of public debt originates from the budgetary practices of local governments: this amounted to nearly 850 billion euros, which was 6.7% of the EU-28’s general government gross debt in 2018. This paper briefly presents the magnitude and relevance of local government debt at a national level, then it outlines the effective debt management strategies taking a multi-level governance approach. Four debt management categories can be classified: changing the conditions, repayment strategies, additional resources and, finally, state intervention. Unfortunately, there are no good/best practices for the first two methods. For additional resources, in some Mediterranean and Scandinavian countries, state or local government-owned specialised financial institutions were established, while in other European countries, the state pays the bailout or consolidation by overtaking the unsustainable local debts. In most cases, only the direct and/or indirect state intervention methods were proven to be successful solutions.

The study deals with the right to redress, and thus the procedural guarantees of the lawful functioning of public administration, from a particular point of view of the enforcement of client rights. The author, in the general context of the study, begins by discussing the requirement of the lawfulness of public administration, then the content of the right of appeal and its requirements for procedural law. Thereafter, the system of redress of the administrative procedure under the new regulations will be introduced through the processing of the laws on general administrative order and administrative litigation. At the end of the study, conclusions will be drawn that will address both the relationship between appeal and administrative litigation and the new administrative judicial system.

Hungary is one of the countries that does not have an autonomous administrative court. In 2018, as in 1896, the Hungarian Parliament decided again that Hungary would start moving towards an organisationally independent model of administrative justice. The modernisation of procedural laws, the autonomous administrative procedure and, last but not least, the amendment of the Fundamental Law paved the way for the independence of administrative courts in parallel with the ordinary court organisation.In order to implement the decision of the National Assembly, we have witnessed an unparalleled cooperation between the legislature, the judiciary and the National Office for the Judiciary, which performs its administrative tasks. All preliminary questions were examined for the planned establishment of administrative courts in 2020, but in 2019 the Parliament decided to postpone the establishment of administrative courts. Nonetheless, we believe that the measures needed for organisational autonomy and the questions raised this year can continue to provide useful information and lessons for both legislators and practitioners.

This study analyses the judicial connections between the legal certainty and the pragmatics of public services, implying here the fluctuation of history since the regime change in 1989. Without disclosing the entire subject, we construct a review of the connections, involving all basic conceptions and theoretical principles. As a support, the study includes the changes of legal relations and also mentions the interpretation of the law by the Constitutional Court about the civil service and pragmatics of public services. From the elements of pragmatics, this study highlights all of the varied ones in association with altered constitutional principles in the last circa thirty years.

Water management and, in this context, water quality protection and water management, as well as the protection against water damage are in the best interests of all societies. The field is currently undergoing significant organisational and legal changes. In this article, the author describes the institutional and major legislative changes of water management in the period from the conciliation to the present, divided into six historical periods. As a result of this research, she presents the evolution leading to the current system and operation of water management. Looking for points of cooperation between law enforcement agencies and administration that can make it difficult for the industry to work effectively the author suggests ways to avoid potential problems.
