Municipal Management in a Systemic Perspective
Journal Title: International Journal Of Management And Economics Invention - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 9
Abstract
The municipal management is influenced by the phenomena causation (cause and effect), by the model of rational expectations and the market roles. This requires a targeted planning, where the assessment of the benefits, of the usefulness and effectiveness allocative, translates the existing dichotomy in decision-making between qualitative and priorities the economic rationality of municipal government. The municipal strategic planning can be a public policy instrument for local and regional development, if we look at the difficulties of financial resources in the municipalities, by the demands and pressure from citizens and other stakeholders. These pressures, can find an answer with a participatory planning and management in the municipalities, making room for the collective involvement of citizens, with their yearnings, allowing decentralized and share decisions of municipal managers. While there is a tendency towards the weakening of popular movements, associations, cooperatives and civil society organizations, increased social uncertainties, the collapse of social security systems, social fragmentation, at Community level, Governments lack democratic legitimacy and resources, open society, creating new forms of socio-political articulation, such as: social inclusion , the participatory budget, boards of managers or community participation, in order to reconcile the objective of democratic legitimacy with increased efficiency. The dilemma that the city manager faces and, between having to create favorable conditions for a gradual insertion of more modern and dynamic sectors of the city in the world of a globalized economy, and seek measures and policies able to mitigate the growing social, economic and environmental problems that affect the most impoverished social groups reveals the precarious and delicate state of public administration in developing societies. To the extent that their own Governments take a role in the expansion of propellant public participation, the theoretical analysis of participation requires renewed approaches capable of integrating governmental dimension plays a central role in the configuration of new paradigm of socio-political stakeholder relations. In this sense, this research aims to analyze the relevance of the introduction of a municipal administration in a systemic perspective, who plays the larger and inclusive participation, as the political and administrative strategy of integrated municipal management to understand the new political dynamics in urban management.
