The increasing availability of extensive governmental data, technological advancements, and a rising standard for government openness are encouraging global governments to implement open data initiatives. While some governments are actively adapting to these trends, others remain behind, despite the pressure. This research explores the political and administrative reasons behind these differences. By analyzing how local governments in South Korea handled requests for open data from citizens between 2007 and 2016, the study highlights the importance of political competition and administrative strength in fostering government transparency and effectively addressing citizen data requests. The study assesses open government data based on its scope, time, and quality, finding that higher levels of electoral competition and better administrative capabilities contribute to increased transparency and responsiveness. However, the study's use of a regression discontinuity design reveals that the political party controlling local governments had minimal influence on these factors.

El gobierno abierto (GA) es un paradigma disruptor en la política y la Administración Pública tradicional mexicana, orientado a la promoción de cambios a favor de mejorar el desempeño gubernamental, aunque refleja, paradójicamente, un campo en construcción y en exploración, tanto en los resultados como en su medición ¾ en este caso¾, en los gobiernos locales en México; por lo que, a través del uso de sus componentes principales, permite generar factores o dimensiones a partir de las seleccionadas. Este es el objetivo de este trabajo, que tomamos del Censo Nacional de Gobiernos Municipales y Demarcaciones Territoriales de la un primer acercamiento en la descripción del GA en los municipios mexicanos. Los hallazgos sugieren que en solo uno de los factores obtenidos, denominado “producto”, se da el cruce de las variables que inciden en el GA, previo al indicador de este, vinculándose un solo factor con los tres componentes como se muestra en el trabajo.

The objective of this research was based on analyzing the perception of efficiency of municipal management in relation to the provision of services in the provincial municipality of Piura 2023, through a correlational methodology that allowed measuring that the provision of municipal services does not They respond to the category "political inertia", but to the identification of a political actor. The article begins with a debate on the inertia of public policies, and consequently, the problems of representativeness in electoral contexts, and their possible impact on the implementation process. Subsequently, the debate is contrasted with results from a perception measurement tool, using a cross-sectional and descriptive non-experimental design. The tool confirms a strong correlation between the municipal management variable and the service provision variable, showing a Pearson coefficient of 0.99, which demonstrates the importance of the identity of the political actor in citizenship. Different dimensions of each study variable confirmed this strong correlation. It is concluded about the risks to public policy that the meters tend to favor the identity of the political actor over efficiency, but also about the cruciality of the actor in the stability and continuity of policies that require long-term efforts.

Transcurrida una década desde la implementación de la Ley 19/2013, carecemos de una visión comparada del nivel de cumplimiento de la norma que incluya una selección amplia de los ayuntamientos españoles. A pesar de la existencia de estudios sobre el cumplimiento de la transparencia activa y de la presencia de varios índices, la mayoría de las contribuciones están centradas exclusivamente en los ayuntamientos de más población. Con el objetivo de subsanar esta carencia, hemos monitorizado los patrones de transparencia activa de los ayuntamientos españoles mayores de 10.000 habitantes y de una selección de 300 inferiores a 10.000. En total, hemos analizado el cumplimiento normativo de 1.031 municipios españoles. Para revisar el cumplimiento, hemos construido un índice con los principales elementos de la Ley. Los resultados arrojan una implementación dispar e insuficiente de las obligaciones de publicidad activa y, para un mejor cumplimiento normativo, se debería promover un sistema de monitorización externo del cumplimiento que promueva e incentive prácticas y experiencias y suponga una mayor difusión de los principios de la norma, así como alejarse de la homogenización, estableciendo articulaciones específicas de las obligaciones normativas en función de la naturaleza, la dimensión y la capacidad institucional.

The objective of the research is to analyze the incidence of public investment on property tax collection in provincial local governments of the southern macro region of Peru during the period 2010 to 2020. The type of study is applied, under the quantitative approach, design non-experimental, longitudinal panel type, descriptive and explanatory. The data for each provincial municipality were extracted from the information portal of the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) segmented through cluster analysis. The econometric estimation method takes into account the methodology for longitudinal panel data. Taking into account the cluster analysis and econometric estimates, the results show that a 1% increase in public investment in transportation, sanitation, and culture and sports, caused an increase in property tax collection of approximately 0.3182%, 0.1208%. and 0.0923% respectively (first cluster), a 1% increase in public investment in transport, culture and sports, caused an increase in property tax collection of approximately 0.2588% and 0.1434% respectively (second cluster) and an increase in the 1% in public investment in transportation and sanitation, caused an increase in property tax collection of approximately 0.2923% and 0.1377% respectively (third cluster).

The general objective of the research is to determine the effects of the consolidation of corruption in municipal public policies in Mexico. This is done based on the Corruption Consolidation Framework (ccf) analytical framework (Meza and Pérez-Chiqués, 2020), which defines three dimensions: 1) administrative structure, 2) transparency, 3) checks and balances. The research observes 255 municipalities based on a quantitative methodological design that points out the comparative observation in dissimilar municipal realities. For this, a database is created whose information is obtained from various sources, such as surveys, institutional repositories and administrative censuses, allowing the development of various indices and objective measures of the municipal reality. With this, a robust analysis is obtained that allows us to conclude with the various effects of the consolidation of corruption on the quality of public policies that characterize the types of subnational political systems.

Purpose: Identify the explanatory factors of the financial condition of small municipalities in Minas Gerais. Methodology: From the perspective of the Theory of Financial Condition, the research was carried out in two stages: first, the financial condition of the municipalities was calculated using Brown's (1993) model; next, the financial variables capable of influencing the financial condition of the municipalities in the sample were identified. To do this, accounting information was collected in the period 2017-2020, from 229 municipalities in the state of Minas Gerais that had a population of less than 5 thousand inhabitants in 2020. An econometric model with panel data was used for the analysis of the relations. Results: The variables Personnel Expenditure (GP) and Degree of Indebtedness (GE) were significant at a 1% level, with GP being positively related and GE negatively related to the government's financial condition. Therefore, the results prove the existence of financial factors related to budget solvency and long-term solvency that affect the financial condition of small municipalities. Contributions of the Study: The research contributes to the literature on the explanatory factors of the financial condition by analyzing small municipalities, using a model consolidated in the international literature, especially amid the discussion of PEC 188/2019, on the merger of these municipalities. In addition, it can help public managers in decision-making, by pointing out the explanatory factors that explain the municipality's financial condition. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Purpose: To analyze the narratives and practices for understanding the concepts and limits of personnel expenses in Brazilian municipalities. Methodology: Exploratory study using the sequential mixed methods approach consisting of three steps: (i) data collection from the Brazilian Finance System (FINBRA) for the period from 2018 to 2021 to analyze whether there was compliance with the limits on personnel expenses established in the Fiscal Responsibility Law (LRF) by Brazilian municipalities; (ii) follow-up of the debates in three lives held on the YouTube channel® on the TV Portal of the National Confederation of Municipalities (CNM) of the series called "What goes into the personnel spending limit?", which was part of the program "Roda de Knowledge" of the channel and which brought the vision of the jurisdiction, the regulatory body (STN) and the supervisory body (Courts of Auditors), whose content was recorded and made available on the platform itself (streaming); and (iii) Content analysis of lives using Transkriptor ® and NVivo® tools. Results: Throughout the period of analysis, the findings of the study show that the concepts about limits on personnel expenses were observed by Brazilian municipalities for the purpose of calculating the fiscal limits established by legislation, regardless of size, region and state where they are located, exceptions involve small municipalities and the North and Northeast regions. Regarding the content of the lives, the interviewees presented converging narratives regarding what should or should not be computed in the limit of personnel expenses, on the amounts that may or may not be deducted, and also that the limits of personnel expenses must be determined by power and organ. Contributions of the Study: The research findings deconstruct the narrative that there are divergences of understanding between jurisdictional bodies, regulatory and supervisory bodies about the amounts that must be computed in the limit of personnel expenses, which can contribute to the fulfillment of these limits by the Brazilian federated entities and to standardize the understanding of the control bodies on the subject.
