Participatory Budgeting in the Czech Republic Between 2014 and 2018
DOI:10.17951/k.2019.26.2.91-101 ANNALES UNIVERSITATIS MARIAE CURIE-SKŁODOWSKA LUBLIN – POLONIA VOL. XXVI, 2 SECTIO K 2019 Charles University, Institute of Political Studies DUŠAN BRABEC ORCID ID: http://orcid.org/0000-0002-6604-9726 Participatory Budgeting in the Czech Republic between 2014 and 2018 ABSTRACT The first real participatory budget was implemented in the Czech Republic in 2014. Since that time, the number of participatory budgets implemented by Czech municipalities increased significantly. With the rising popularity of this mechanism, I have conducted a simple quantitative analysis of possibly all the cases of the participatory budgets that were implemented in the Czech Republic between 2014 and 2018. This analysis aimed to identify the main characteristics and features as well as general trends of participa- tory budgeting in the Czech environment. Most attention was focused on the indicators of attractiveness and effectiveness of participatory budgets in the Czech Republic such as the ratio of the funds allocated for participatory budgeting compared to municipalities’ annual budgets or the connection between participa- tory budgets and voter turnout compared to other kinds of elections in the Czech Republic. This paper’s main asset is that it identifies and summarises all the cases and the main characteristics of participatory budgeting that were held in the analysed time period in the Czech Republic. Key words: participatory budgeting, the Czech Republic INTRODUCTION All around the world, participatory budgeting (hereinafter referred to as PB) is quite a known and used mechanism. It was estimated that only in Europe between 2005 and 2012, more than 13 hundred participatory budgeting instances took place, involving more than 8 million citizens [Sgueo 2016]. -
