In general, the legality of actions carried out during public procurement is decided by review bodies appointed at the national level. When the procurement involves EU funds, monitoring the legality of such procedures also involves a system of audits and other controls as part of the management and control of funds, involving specialised institutions. The interaction between the two systems is not regulated at the EU level and regulation by Member States is also incomplete in certain cases, leading to friction between the decisions of review bodies and auditors. This article explores in detail institutional competences in EU-funded public procurement and examines how the system of audits and other controls interacts with traditional review procedures at the EU and national level. These are presented both from the EU perspective and from the national perspective, using the Hungarian institutional system as an example. The article analyses the issues arising from overlapping institutional competences and proposes certain possible solutions to deal with these issues.

This study aims to provide a theoretical analysis of the applicability of competency-based Human Resource Management (HRM) approaches in the civil service with a view to enhancing and embedding the development of HRM in national systems, such as in the Hungarian civil service, where, despite its growing popularity, it has not been adequately addressed so far. It is our intention to focus on several interrelated aspects of the issue, analysing its components and indicating directions for improvement. Exploring the reasons behind the lack of progress in this area, the study highlights aspects such as the misunderstandings resulting from the differences of interpretations of competency-based HRM, and of the practical implications of the measurability of competencies. It also presents the special features of practices employed in the United States, where the interpretation of competencies is based on the unified personality of the employee, who is ready to develop new competencies that meet the requirements of employers and the changing work environment. It seems important to bring the approaches of the training institutions into line with those of the public institutions, even if compromises are unavoidable.

e-Government in Germany is usually not ranked top of the class in Europe. Rankings, such as the EU eGovernment Benchmark 2022, UN E-Government Development Index and others show that Germany is rather poorly ranked among the developed nations of the world. The authors assume that there is a correlation between the quality of Public Sector Education regarding digital competences and the quality of e-Government the so digitally educated civil servants can deliver. Civil servants in Germany usually graduate from one of the approximately 20 main universities of public administration; hence, an overview of the digital competences taught there is the core of this article. The main result is that both the quantity and the quality of digital competences taught need to be improved and, in the worst case depend on the university chosen, even zero digital competences are taught to the future civil servants.

A composite indicator of tax competitiveness will be presented, which ranks Hungary among the moderately competitive OECD countries. It is compiled in such a way that corporate taxation and labour taxes pull the average upwards, and that an additional competitive advantage is the taxation of cross-border transactions. On the other hand, the significant tax administration burden, which worsens the value of the composite indicator, can be considered as a disadvantage. Hungary is in the worst position in terms of tax rates for consumption taxes. Overall, our tax competitiveness has improved by about 8 ranks from 2014 to 2021. We found that the Hungarian tax system is mostly characterised by a monetarist approach, but it also widely applies tax incentives, which is a characteristic of the Keynesian school. The evolution of tax revenues shows that sales taxes represent a significant share. Another feature of the Hungarian tax system is the significant reduction in taxes on labour, which is offset by increases in the personal income tax (PIT), which rises in line with income (solvent demand), and by increases in sales taxes resulting from the growth in consumption.
" ["hu_HU"]=> string(1350) "Bemutatásra kerül egy az adóversenyképességet mérő kompozit mutató, amely alapján Magyarország az OECD országok körében a közepesen versenyképes országok közé tartozik. Ez úgy tevődik össze, hogy a vállalati adózás és a munkát terhelő adók felfelé húzzák az átlagot, sőt, további versenyelőnyünk a határon átnyúló ügyletek adóztatása. Ugyanakkor hátránynak tekinthető a jelentős adóadminisztrációs teher, amely rontja a kompozit mutató értékét. Magyarország helyzete – az adómértéket tekintve - a fogyasztási adók vonatkozásában a legrosszabb. Összességében értékelve: az adóversenyképességünk 2014-ről 2021-re mintegy 8 pozíciót javult. Megállapítottuk, hogy a magyar adórendszerre jobbára a monetarista felfogás jellemző, de széles körben alkalmazza az adókedvezményeket is, ami viszont a keynesi iskola jellemzője. Az adóbevételek alakulásában jól láttható, hogy a forgalmi adók jelentős arányt képviselnek. A magyar adórendszer további jellemzője, hogy jelentősen csökkentek a munkát terhelő adók, amelyet egyrészt a jövedelemtömeggel (fizetőképes kereslettel) együtt emelkedő SZJA, másrészt a fogyasztás bővülésből adódó forgalom típusú adók növekményei kompenzálnak.

Rethinking Public Administration and the Importance of Urban Marketing
This article analyses the role of urban marketing in the governance of local governments in Ecuador in line with the Organic Code for Regional, Autonomous and Decentralized Organization (COOTAD). The governance debate demonstrates the potential that local governments may have to assume the competence to attract Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). It also highlights the importance of urban marketing in the construction of Ecuador’s branding or of Ecuador’s image and its economic positioning in the regional and international sphere. The paper arrives at the conclusion that local government is coordinating commercial and institutional agendas to ensure economic, socio-political and technological development in Ecuador.

The 2018 Italian Parliamentary elections were marked by the success of populist parties. With the consolidation of hybrid media, campaigning on Twitter became an increasingly important communication channel for party leaders. An analysis of Twitter communications from 1 February 2018 to 4 March 2018 (day of the elections) reveals that Matteo Salvini and Matteo Renzi dominated the election campaign in the Twittersphere. Other party leaders did not use Twitter as skilfully as these two politicians and their engagement indicators are lower than those of Salvini and Renzi. The internal communicational dynamic between the party leaders shows that their main target was Matteo Renzi. Even though he had the most followers within this period and, overall, his communication indicators were good, in the end his party suffered a historical loss at the elections.

Book Review: Michela Minesso (ed.): Welfare Policies is Swtizerland and Italy – Institutions, Motherhood, Family and Work in the 19th and 20th Centuries
Welfare Policies in Switzerland and Italy, edited by Michela Minesso, was published in 2021 by Peter Lang. The book comprises six studies, with a word from the editor at the beginning, and provides a broad overview of the whole system of Italian and Swiss welfare policies in the 19th and 20th centuries. The authors include Jean-Pierre Tabin, Brigitte Studer, Paolo Passaniti, Gianni Silei and Massimiliano Paniga, all eminent researchers in their fields. The studies in this volume provide insight into the development of family law, women’s rights and social rights in this period. It makes a very interesting reading for those interested in the subject.
