Abstrakt

System transformation processes in Poland have accelerated the modernization and evolution of the public administration model. As a result of the intensification of decentralization processes, the state lost its hegemonic position. In the public sector, a significant part of the powers were taken over by local government units, and institutions of the second and third sector have become an important partner in the implementation of tasks and the provision of public services. The activity of local governments to date, which is positively assessed by the public opinion, proves the great development potential of local and regional authorities. However, the experience of recent years shows that this potential has not always been properly assessed and utilized. Underestimation of the role of local governments is demonstrated by the actions of the rulers, and the failure to recognize the challenges ahead of him political programs of the opposition.
