Local authority financing is currently at the heart of the
political debate. All the states are faced with the challenge of reconciling the
need to control and reduce public spending with greater financial autonomy
in local government; they are accordingly seeking ways of achieving an
equitable distribution of financial resources among the different levels of
government in a context of budgetary cutbacks at every level of public
administration. If strengthening democracy means strengthening local selfgovernment,
this in turn means establishing systems of financing for local
authorities which are at once efficient, fair and consistent with the state’s
economic imperatives. In other words, the principle of subsidiary,
decentralization and local finances are all interdependent.
In Romania this process started in 1990 and it is on the move even
today. This paper is trying to find, by using economic instruments, what is
the degree in which we succeed to create a real local financial selfgovernment. |
