Journal Title: Zeszyty Naukowe Wyższej Szkoły Humanitas Zarządzanie - Year 2018, Vol 19, Issue 1

Abstract

The participatory budget is a decision-making process, in which the inhabitants co-create the budget of a given self-government, thus co-deciding on the distribution of a given pool of public money. The inclusion of residents in co-deciding on the manner of spending these funds is getting more and more popular among both residents and authorities. This is because well-planned and carried out participatory processes allow you to manage your money more effectively, including facilitating the identification of the most important social needs and supporting the integration and understanding of various people and groups – having different, particular interests. This study presents examples of regulation of local civic budgets functioning in selected polish cities. The author discussed them in the context of newly adopted statutory provisions introduced by the amendment, including of governmental self-government acts of 11 January 2018, drawing conclusions from the regulations proposed by the legislator and considering what consequences they may have for local governments. The author’s goal was to assess the introduced regulations in terms of their possible consequences for the processes of increasing civic participation in exercising power at the local level.<br/><br/>
