  • Environmental Policy, Municipalities and Intergovernmental Cooperation in Brazil Estela Maria Souza Costa Neves
    Environmental policy, municipalities and intergovernmental cooperation in Brazil ESTELA MARIA SOUZA COSTA NEVES FFECTIVE ENVIRONMENTAL policies are indispensable for the sus- tainability of long-term development for meeting both domestic chal- E lenges and the so-called global issues. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of environmental governance in Brazil through the exploratory analysis of the relationship between municipalities and envi- ronmental policy strategies developed by the Federal Government, from the perspective of the Brazilian federative state. The central argument presented herein holds that in Brazil, for an impor- tant number of topics on the environmental agenda, the success of the initiatives promoted by the federal government depends to some extent on the adhesion of municipalities. Since 1988, endowed with the status of federated entities and enjoying unprecedented autonomy, municipalities can contribute to the failure of federal initiatives by not subscribing to said initiatives, especially these require the exercise of their exclusive powers and the allocation of their own resources. Nationwide public policies promoted by central governments require the involvement of local government actors either to tailor policy objectives and regulations to local specificities, harmonize conflicting priorities, or optimize the use of increasingly scarcer public resources. The structure of intergovern- mental relations is a crucial factor for the success of public policies implemented at central level, especially the promotion of the mutual and enriching adaptation of national and local perspectives (Villanueva, 2000, p.40). The importance of the participation of local governments, however, is not restricted to the host of benefits pointed out in the literature about the ad- vantages of localized state action - such as increased efficiency, less corruption, promotion of direct democracy practices, greater social control, transparency and greater capacity to meet local specificities and preferences.

  • Municipality Defined
    MSU Local Government Center Handbook Highlight from the Montana Municipal Officials Handbook 1.102 Municipality Defined Authoritative sources define the American municipality as having four essential characteristics, each of which is considered in detail in sub-section 1.103 immediately below. To exist as a municipality in the United States the entity must have: 1. Law making authority authorized by the state; 2. Legal personality such that it can sue and be sued and hold and dispose of property; 3. A local court that enforces local law and 4. A defined territorial area. However, in Montana law, a municipality is defined simply as an entity that incorporates as a city or town (7-1-4121(9), MCA). Interestingly enough, this language sometimes causes confusion in as much as none of Montana’s 129 presently incorporated municipalities can produce a document that even resembles the “articles of incorporation” that would usually define the purpose, structure and officers of a private corporation. In Montana, a city or town is brought into existence as a public corporation either directly by an act of the state legislature or indirectly pursuant to law enacted by the state legislature. The first ten Montana communities to become incorporated municipalities were “incorporated” by an act of the Territorial Legislature during the period between 1864 (when Virginia City was incorporated) and 1885 (when Billings was incorporated). Later, communities that met the statutory criteria for incorporation and that wished to form a city or town government were brought into existence (i.e. became incorporated municipalities) by local elections that were conducted pursuant to the laws enacted by the Montana State Legislature.

  • Local Levels in Federalism Constitutional Provisions and the State of Implementation
    Local Levels in Federalism Constitutional Provisions and the State of Implementation Balananda Paudel Krishna Prasad Sapkota Local Levels in Federalism Constitutional Provisions and the State of Implementation Balananda Paudel Krishna Prasad Sapkota First published: July 2018 Publisher: Swatantra Nagarik Sanjal Nepal Maharajgunj, Kathmandu Background Democracy and Republicanism are popular ideas worldwide. These terms originated from the city-states of Athens and Rome in BCE 507, where directly elected democratic and republican governments were already in order. Even when autocratic and centralized governments were the global norm, local governments or entities were active in one form or another. Looking back at Nepali history, there are no documents available on the local governance system during the rule of the Gopalas and Ahirs. However, under the rule of the Kirants, Lichchhavis, and Mallas, local entities were found to be functioning effectively. Later, during the Shah/Rana dynasty also, local governments were functioning in one form or another. But it was not until much later in 1976 that it was realized that a government without people’s representatives could not be sustained, and Kathmandu Nagarpalika was formed, albeit under an autocratic national government. Slowly, other areas followed suit and local entities were established across different parts of the country. Even under the autocratic Panchayat system, there were attempts made to have elected local entities. The report of the Power Decentralisation Commission in 2020 BS (1963 CE), Decentralisation Act 2039 BS (1982 CE), the Man Mohan Adhikari government- initiated ‘Build your own village’ programme in 2051 BS (1995 CE), the report on decentralisation and local autonomy in 2053 BS (1996 CE), the Local Self- governance Act 2055 BS ((1999 CE), and the Decentralisation Implementation Plan 2055 BS (2001 CE) are notable for their experimentation, experience, and attempts at local autonomy.
