The major corporate projects undertaken in the year under review were related to overseeing the development of: (a) Accrual Accounting; (b) eProcurement; and (c) eArchiving. Other assignments undertaken during the period under review range from the organisational reform of the revenue earning departments within the Ministry of Finance to the activities of the Co-ordinating Task Force for Own Resources. ACCRUAL ACCOUNTING Work is continuing on the introduction of accrual accounting at all ministries and their respective government departments. Accrual accounting will have a major impact on the way the internal financial business of Government will be conducted, particularly in areas of asset management and the management of debtors and creditors. This financial reform process will cross ministerial and departmental organisational boundaries and have a major influence on the departmental processes related to their day-to- day financial administration. Accrual accounting will provide more meaningful financial information that will enhance the quality of the Government's financial decision-making

Kekkonen hade gått från att ha varit en kontroversiell politiker som med knapp majoritet blivit president, till att vara överlägsen vid senare val. Samtidigt hade han uppnått en stark maktposition inom det finska politiska fältet. Kari Suomalainen var politisk skämttecknare i Finlands största dagstidning Helsingin Sanomat, och hade tidigt blivit en Kekkonen-kritiker. När Kekkonens femte presidentperiod inleddes, hade Kari dock redan visat mera förståelse mot Kekkonens person och gärningar. Bägges positioner hade dessutom etablerats sedan länge. Denna studie utreder, hur Kari på sina teckningar gestaltade Kekkonens maktposition och utövande av makt under Kekkonens sista presidentperiod åren 1978-1981. Ett genomgripande tema i granskningen är Kekkonens avståndshållande gentemot övriga inhemska aktörer. Metoden är kontextanalys, även om Karis synpunkt och infallsvinkel är det viktigaste. Tidsperioden är från och med Kekkonens omval i presidentvalet 1978 till och med Kekkonens avgång på grund av hälsoskäl år 1981.

    Hungarologische Beiträge 18, 2006

    HUNGAROLOGISCHE BEITRÄGE 18 BRIDGE BUILDING AND POLITICAL CULTURES In Kekkonen and Kádár We Trust Juha POHJONEN 1 The Years of Evil In Hungary there are two political lines: the first one is trying to get out of the war and eager to get into the Anglo-American sphere and the other one is willing to fight with Germans because Hun- gary’s destiny will anyway be bad when Germany loses the war.1 This is one of the last messages Finnish authorities got from Budapest in April, 1944, before the Allied forces started bombing it. In these bombings the residence of the Legation of Finland was also destroyed and the last official information channel from Hungary to Finland silenced although the last Finnish diplomats left the country as late as in October. Diplomatic relationships had already been cut off in September due to the regulations of the peace treaty Finland had concluded with the Soviet Union on September 17th 1944.2 By this time Hungary fell under the Red Flag. Finland was still waiting for her destiny. Politically and militarily Finland and Hungary were in a somewhat similar situation in spring 1944. Both countries had German troops on their soil and both were under the threat of becoming occupied by the Red Army. During the year 1944 the Finns succeeded in preventing the Russian troops from entering Finland, but according to the peace treaty, Russians leased the naval base of Porkkala near Helsinki and occupied it. The Hungarians were forced to accept Red Army occupation. If we seek any similarities between post-war Hungary and Finland, one of them was the Allied Control Commission.
