Data-intensive technologies, such as artificial intelligence, imply huge opportunities for transforming the delivery of healthcare and social services, improving people’s quality of life and working in the health and welfare system. The aim of this paper is to present examples of the implementation of artificial intelligence techniques in healthcare and social services and to sketch the trends and challenges in the adoption of artificial intelligence techniques, with an emphasis on the public sector and selected public services. Analysis is based on a realistic assessment of current artificial intelligence technologies and their anticipated development. Besides the benefits and potential opportunities for healthcare and social services, there are also challenges for governments. Understanding the huge potential of artificial intelligence as well as its limitations will be a key step forward, but it is essential to avoid the trap of an overestimation of artificial intelligence potential.

An analysis of different aspects regarding the creation of networks within the Croatian higher education system is presented in the paper. The larger part of the paper refers to the analysis of public services in general and the network approach in public administration in particular. The state of the higher education system is presented through the inclusion of market and network principles and the establishment of numerous actors in this field by which effectiveness of this field of public administration is trying to be improved. The aim of the detailed examinations is to pro-vide an overview of all relevant actors whose interactions and roles resemble network-like relationships. To examine the starting hypothesis that neo-managerial approach leads to networking within the higher education system, an empirical study was conducted at the Josip Juraj Strossmayer University in Osijek, Croatia among the teaching staff and students. The final chapters of the paper present and discuss research results which principally support the initial assumptions.
本文对克罗地亚高等教育系统内建立网络的不同方面进行了分析。本文的大部分内容是对公共服务的总体分析，特别是对公共管理中的网络方法的分析。高等教育制度的状况是通过纳入市场和网络原则以及在这一领域建立众多行动者来呈现的，通过这些行动者，这一公共行政领域的效力正在努力得到改善。详细检查的目的是提供所有相关参与者的概述，他们的相互作用和角色类似于网络关系。为了检验新管理方法导致高等教育系统内部联网的初始假设，在克罗地亚奥西耶克的Josip Juraj Strossmayer大学的教职员工和学生中进行了一项实证研究。论文的最后几章介绍和讨论了主要支持最初假设的研究结果。

Porast potpore pokretu za neovisnost u Kataloniji za posljedicu je imao institucijsku nestabilnost i promjenu španjolskoga stranačkog sustava. Ovaj rad istražuje razlike u interpretacijskim okvirima katalonskog pitanja na temelju izjava nacionalnih stranačkih čelnika koji su sudjelovali na četiri predizborna sučeljavanja za parlamentarne izbore u studenom 2019. Interpretacijski okviri definirani su s obzirom na tri pitanja: 1) jesu li nacionalni stranački čelnici u predizbornim sučeljavanjima prikazali katalonski proces (Procés) kao neprijateljski, tj. kao onaj koji ruši ustavni poredak ili kao legitimno pravo građana na prosvjed; 2) kako stranački čelnici uokviruju španjolsku državu – kao izričito unitarnu zemlju ili višenacionalnu državu; 3) smatraju li nacionalni stranački čelnici da su nužne ustavne promjene da bi se riješilo katalonsko pitanje ili preferiraju status quo. Analiza provedena metodom uokvirivanja utvrdila je pet interpretacijskih okvira te pokazala da dva interpretacijska okvira koja podrazumijevaju afirmativno rješavanje katalonskog pitanja dijalogom s katalonskom vladom (Generalitat) uživaju većinu i na sučeljavanjima i nakon izbora.

Institutions (theatres) evaluated in this paper are mediators of an unrepeatable interpretive art and they need funds from public resources of different government levels to ensure their activities. The aim of the present paper is to evaluate the efficiency of theatre management of 93 evaluated public theatres in the Czech Republic and Poland through 11 indicators. The evaluated weights of chosen indicators were determined by the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), in combination with the chosen objective method for determining the importance of indicators. From the results it is evident that big multi-genre theatres producing more genres of interpretive art (drama, opera, ballet, musical) with a bigger number of employees had the worst results in both states.

This article deals with coordination in the study and practice of governance. Facing the new generation of complex public problems will require not only greater coordination, but also coordination that can only be built from a long-term systemic and global vision, based on governments with effective institutional capacity. In other words, internal sufficiency and external connectivity will be two key factors in the new governance. The article is structured in six sections. After the introduction, the second one analyses the concept of governance in terms of coordination. The third reviews the meaning of coordination as management of interdependencies. The fourth explores the increase in complexity and interdependence in the current scenario, through the VUCA concept (English acronym for volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity). The fifth examines some challenges of global governance and coordination through the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, it presents some conclusions.

Cilj je rada povijesnopravnom metodom i normativnom analizom propisa koji su bili na snazi od 1874. do 1991. ispitati ulogu i značenje instituta žalbe u upravnom sporu u Hrvatskoj. Uz mogućnost izjavljivanja žalbe vezuje se i pitanje organizacije tijela koja su vodila upravne sporove. Stoga su prikazane organizacija i struktura sudstva nadležnog za vođenje upravnih sporova. Osobit se naglasak stavlja na povijesna razdoblja u razvoju upravnog spora u kojem je postojala mogućnost izjavljivanja žalbe. Normativna je analiza usmjerena na žalbeni postupak, dopuštenost odnosno ograničenja izjavljivanja žalbe te posebice na ovlasti nadležnih sudova pri odlučivanju o žalbi. Svrha je rada uputiti na izvorišne osnove pravnog normiranja žalbe u upravnom sporu te iznijeti specifičnosti i iznimke utvrđene u povijesnom razvoju, a koje mogu poslužiti kao smjernice za daljnji razvoj i povećanje učinkovitosti žalbenog odlučivanja na Visokome upravnom sudu Republike Hrvatske

Ethiopian–Egyptian relations have seen remarkable tension since Ethiopia began the Renaissance Dam construction in 2011, and tensions have since escalated when Ethiopia announced the filling stage. While Ethiopia defends its project due to its economic importance, Egypt fears its negative effects. The paper discusses the hydro-political differences between the Nile Basin countries, particularly Egypt and Ethiopia, regarding the issue of water sharing and the means of settling it. It also discusses the consequent diplomatic problems and changes in the balance of power in Africa with the rise of Ethiopia as a regional power. The paper has found that the worsening of the Nile Basin situation is a result of the persistence of the conflicting parties and their adherence to their positions with no willingness to make concessions. Given the lack of a comprehensive legal agreement to regulate the exploitation and sharing of Nile water, the only way to put an end to this conflict is through cooperation between all basin countries.

This paper provides a commentary on the evolution and position of petty offence law in the Polish legal system. For the sake of order, it should be noted that the nature of petty offences is ambiguous and not one-dimensional. Their status and role depend on the assumptions of the legislator, who may emphasise their various aspects. A petty offence may be an element of criminal law in the broad sense, as a “small crime” or an administrative tort. More-over, the development of Polish petty offence law and the arguments supporting the choice of specific legal solutions are presented. The probable future of Polish petty offence law was also indicated, aiming at the conclusion that the most serious petty offences would become crimes, and the rest would become administrative torts.

Trust in government plays an essential role in ensuring the legitimacy and resilience of a country’s political system. The aim of this study is to examine the perceived levels of corruption and transparency as factors influencing trust in local government, as well as the relationships between them, by obtaining a statistical generalisation of the respondents’ (n=403) attitudes and opinions towards the local government of one of the recently formed amalgamated territorial communities in Ukraine. The regression-based bootstrapping approach was applied to test the conceptual model and hypotheses using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 25.0 software. The results of the study demonstrate the complex nature of the relationship between the variables and highlight some important issues regarding the perception of transparency, the role it plays in curbing corruption and improving public confidence in local government, which provides a basis for further systematic research on this topic.
