INTRODUCTION Short description of administrative system of your country “The organisational variety of the Austrian administration is derived from two principles: from the constitutional basic principle of the Federation and from the principle of local self-administration of Austrian municipalities These two principles result to an administrative structure consisting of three levels of subdivisions each with corresponding administrative organisations: at central government level the Federal Government at federal level, the federal state administrations of the nine States of Burgenland, Carinthia, Lower Austria, Upper Austria, Salzburg, Styria, Tyrol, Vorarlberg and Vienna and at local self-administration the municipal administrations of 2.100 Austrian municipalities All over Austria there is also a network of 95 administrative districts, which are not independent territorial authorities but are rather organizationally integrated in the federal state administration (as district authorities) or within the greater city. As such, Austria can be said to have a four-tiered administrative structure throughout: Federal Government – Federal States – Districts – Municipalities The Federal Government is the largest administrative organisation in Austria. It is under the leadership of the Federal Ministers, who preside as monocratic organs of a particular department. As a whole, the Federal Ministers make up the Federal Government. The Federal Chancellor is the chairman of the Federal Government and as such, exercises the central function. A Federal Minister’s department consists of a Federal Ministry (also called Central Offices) and the subordinate agencies. In this way, finance offices are subordinate agencies just as police inspectorates or even individual schools are. In the last decades, various legally independent establishments were founded outside of the Federal administration. This occurred through so called “disincorporation”, in which a governmental establishment was converted into a legally independent institution or a company under company law on the basis of a special law. In contrast to the Federal Administration, the administrative apparatus of the nine Federal States are not organised according to the branch system. The State Government as a leadership organ of the state administration basically acts as a committee, although many aspects are still delegated to individual members for decision. There are no separate State Ministers with or without portfolios as administrative assistance, but rather a common State Government Office. Internal affairs of the Office are led by the State Governor as chairman of the State Government (at political level) and the Head of 7 European Regional Development Fund WPT1 Regional report: Tyrol – Austria the State Government Office (at administrative level). Most of the 95 District Administrations are also part of the State Administration. Outside the 15 larger cities, which act as administrative districts, there are 80 District Authorities established as administrative districts throughout Austria, and which play a leading role especially in national administration. District authorities are led by one of the persons nominated as District Governor by the State Government. Furthermore, State Administrations also have subordinate agencies and numerous disincorporations from State administration have taken place. State hospitals especially have been going through a process of legal independence. About 80 % of all municipalities (2.100) in Austria have less than 3.000 inhabitants. Since the size and capacity of a municipality is not considered in task setting, a distinct structure of cooperation has developed amongst Austria’s municipalities. As such, many municipal associations are founded especially when concerning high investment and employment opportunities, in order to enable more efficient management. The Municipal Offices are under the leadership of the Mayor. An office leader generally referred to as Municipal Secretary or City Office Director takes care of the administrative leadership (Chief Magistrate in cities with their own statute). Many municipal responsibilities fall under the provision of subsistence and concern the creation of educational, social, environmental and cultural infrastructure.” (Bundeskanzleramt Österreich, 2011) Figure 1: Administrative system of Austria (Perhelion: Wikimedia Commons, 2011) Source: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Verwaltungsgliederung_%C3%96sterreichs.svg 8 European Regional Development Fund WPT1 Regional report: Tyrol – Austria Institutional Structures of TA Außerfern (District of Reutte) The district of Reutte – in terms of geography also called "Außerfern" - is located in northwest Tyrol and is isolated from the Tyrolean central space by some mountain ranges. The region borders in the east and north to Bavaria (Germany) and in the west to the Bregenzer Wald (Vorarlberg). Populated valleys in this region amount to only 9 % of the total area, whereas forest and alpine areas cover large areas. The district of Reutte is connected with the central area of Tyrol only by a year-round open mountain pass road. Moreover, this transport axis is at times overloaded serving as a transit route for the tourist traffic from and to Germany. In contrast, there are seven roads and two railway connections leading into the Bavarian neighbour regions. Cooperation across national boundaries has always been vital for the Außerfern region. Concerning its topographical outline, the region contains four areas: the Tannheim valley, the market town of Reutte and its surroundings, the Upper Lechtal valley and the Zwischentoren valley. These four regional parts are congruent with the organizational areas of the respective planning associations (PV) and tourism federations (TVB). Appearing in the statistics with its 31,691 inhabitants (as of 2015) and an area of 1,237 km², the Außerfern region is the smallest of the nine districts of Tyrol. The population density adds up to 26 inhabitants per km². The 37 municipalities in total show a very small-scale structure. Even the district capital Reutte has only little more than 6,000 inhabitants; there are 27 small communities with less than 1,000 people, including 16 very small communities having less than 500 inhabitants. Three-quarters of the municipalities had to accept a decline in population in the past decade, whereas a growing population can only be seen throughout the planning association of Reutte and its surroundings

  • Report for Austria– Questionnaire Related the Administration Control
    ADMINISTRATIVE JUSTICE IN EUROPE – Report for Austria– Questionnaire related the administration control list and typology in the 25 Member States of the European Union Preliminary. 1. Administration jurisdictional control was one typical concern of the liberal streams in the 19th century. In Austria, “the Reichsgericht”, a precursor of the Constitutional Court, was created by the December 1867 constitution which also planned creation of a Supreme Administrative Court (hereafter “the Verwaltungsgerichtshof”). However, this project was only fulfilled in 1876. Following this, the Verwaltungsgerichtshof played a decisive role in developing the legal protection system in Austria, establishing fundamental principles for administrative procedural law. Between 1934 and 1938, the Constitutional Court and the Verwaltungsgerichtshof merged to become “the Bundesgerichtshof”. Several judges were retired for political reasons. The introductions of Chambers with extended composition and of actions for administrative failure to act were significant reforms. After 1938, “the Bundesgerichtshof” lost its authority as Constitutional Court as well as several of its administrative jurisdiction authorities. Several judges were retired for political reasons. In 1940 “the Bundesgerichtshof” became “the Verwaltungsgerichtshof in Vienna” which was an administrative authority of the Reich. In 1941, the Verwaltungsgerichtshof became the “Vienna Außensenat” of the “Reichsverwaltungsgericht” by forming an organisational association with other German administrative courts. A few weeks after the Austrian declaration of independence in 1945, Chancellor Renner commissioned Mr. Coreth to revive the Verwaltungsgerichtshof which took up its duties again on 7th December 1945. The legal text on the Verwaltungsgerichtshof was amended and reissued several times but, in substance, it is still in force today. In 1945, the Constitutional Court was re-established with the same capacities as 1933 and it began carrying out its duties again in 1946.

  • Austerity and the Rise of the Nazi Party Gregori Galofré-Vilà, Christopher M
    Austerity and the Rise of the Nazi party Gregori Galofré-Vilà, Christopher M. Meissner, Martin McKee, and David Stuckler NBER Working Paper No. 24106 December 2017, Revised in September 2020 JEL No. E6,N1,N14,N44 ABSTRACT We study the link between fiscal austerity and Nazi electoral success. Voting data from a thousand districts and a hundred cities for four elections between 1930 and 1933 shows that areas more affected by austerity (spending cuts and tax increases) had relatively higher vote shares for the Nazi party. We also find that the localities with relatively high austerity experienced relatively high suffering (measured by mortality rates) and these areas’ electorates were more likely to vote for the Nazi party. Our findings are robust to a range of specifications including an instrumental variable strategy and a border-pair policy discontinuity design.

  • The North-South Divide in Italy: Reality Or Perception?
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk EUROPEAN SPATIAL RESEARCH AND POLICY Volume 25 2018 Number 1 http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1231-1952.25.1.03 Dario MUSOLINO∗ THE NORTH-SOUTH DIVIDE IN ITALY: REALITY OR PERCEPTION? Abstract. Although the literature about the objective socio-economic characteristics of the Italian North- South divide is wide and exhaustive, the question of how it is perceived is much less investigated and studied. Moreover, the consistency between the reality and the perception of the North-South divide is completely unexplored. The paper presents and discusses some relevant analyses on this issue, using the findings of a research study on the stated locational preferences of entrepreneurs in Italy. Its ultimate aim, therefore, is to suggest a new approach to the analysis of the macro-regional development gaps. What emerges from these analyses is that the perception of the North-South divide is not consistent with its objective economic characteristics. One of these inconsistencies concerns the width of the ‘per- ception gap’, which is bigger than the ‘reality gap’. Another inconsistency concerns how entrepreneurs perceive in their mental maps regions and provinces in Northern and Southern Italy. The impression is that Italian entrepreneurs have a stereotyped, much too negative, image of Southern Italy, almost a ‘wall in the head’, as also can be observed in the German case (with respect to the East-West divide). Keywords: North-South divide, stated locational preferences, perception, image. 1. INTRODUCTION The North-South divide1 is probably the most known and most persistent charac- teristic of the Italian economic geography.

  • The Informal Sector and Economic Growth of South Africa and Nigeria: a Comparative Systematic Review
    Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity Review The Informal Sector and Economic Growth of South Africa and Nigeria: A Comparative Systematic Review Ernest Etim and Olawande Daramola * Department of Information Technology, Cape Peninsula University of Technology, P.O. Box 652, South Africa; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 August 2020; Accepted: 10 October 2020; Published: 6 November 2020 Abstract: The informal sector is an integral part of several sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries and plays a key role in the economic growth of these countries. This article used a comparative systematic review to explore the factors that act as drivers to informality in South Africa (SA) and Nigeria, the challenges that impede the growth dynamics of the informal sector, the dominant subsectors, and policy initiatives targeting informal sector providers. A systematic search of Google Scholar, Scopus, ResearchGate was performed together with secondary data collated from grey literature. Using Boolean string search protocols facilitated the elucidation of research questions (RQs) raised in this study. An inclusion and exclusion criteria became necessary for rigour, comprehensiveness and limitation of publication bias. The data collated from thirty-one (31) primary studies (17 for SA and 14 for Nigeria) revealed that unemployment, income disparity among citizens, excessive tax burdens, excessive bureaucratic hurdles from government, inflationary tendencies, poor corruption control, GDP per capita, and lack of social protection survival tendencies all act as drivers to the informal sector in SA and Nigeria. Several challenges are given for both economies and policy incentives that might help sustain and improve the informal sector in these two countries.

But there are substantial regional differences within and between these countries with respect to available net income. According to GfK’s prognosis, Switzerland’s almost 8.5 million inhabitants have a total purchasing power of €356.9 billion in 2019 (excludes Liechten- stein). Austria’s approximately 8.8 million inhabitants have around €212.3 billion at their disposal in 2019, while Germany’s approximately 82.8 million inhabitants have €1,968.7 billion. Purchasing power is a measure of the nominal net income available to the population, including government subsidies such as unemployment assis- tance, child benefit and pension contributions. The population uses these funds for consumer purchases as well as expenditures related to accom- modation, recreation and savings.
