Abstract
"It is typical in the modern world that most eco nomic growth is explained by an increase in total fac tor productivity, commonly accompanied by the rise of real capital. After the last financial crisis, Slovenia was specific in the growth of total factor productivity between 2009 and 2019 in that the 44 analyzed in dustries substituted the decline of net real values of fixed capital, associated with a large contraction in bank loans to non-financial corporations. During this period, Slovenia’s total factor productivity strength ened due to increases in innovative potential, human capital (employees with higher education), and the share of foreign trade in Slovenia’s GDP. The public sector played an important role in this, as the increase in innovation potential and human capital was the result of the increase in the real lev el of Slovenian Export and Development Bank loans to enterprises and from extensive EU Structural and Cohesion Funds placements. The growth of inno vation potential was influenced by the rise in the number of full-time researchers, and the increase in human capital was influenced by the economic cli mate in the EU"
期刊介绍:
TRAS represents a collective effort initiated by an international group aimed at boosting the research in the field of public administration in a country where during the communist regime there was no tradition in this sense. TRAS represents a unique source of specialized analysis of the ex-communist space, of the transition processes to democracy, of the reform of public administration, and of comparative analysis of administrative systems. The general topic covered by the articles in the Review is administrative sciences. As a result of an interdisciplinary, modern approach, the articles cover the following specific themes: Public management, public policy, administrative law, public policy analysis, regional development, community development, public finances, urban planning, program evaluation in public administration, ethics, comparative administrative systems, etc. TRAS encourages the authors to submit articles that are based on empirical research. From the standpoint of the topic covered, TRAS is lined up with the trends followed by other international journals in the field of public administration. All articles submitted to the Transylvanian Review of Administrative Sciences have to present a clear connection to the field of administrative sciences and the research (both theoretical and empirical) should be conducted from this perspective. Interdisciplinary topics related to organizational theory, sustainable development and CSR, international relations, etc. can be considered for publication, however the research needs to address relevant issues from the perspective of the public sector. Articles which use highly specialized econometrics models as well as studies addressing macro-economic topics will not be considered for evaluation. The decision on whether a certain topic falls within the interest of TRAS belongs to the editors and it is not connected with the overall quality of the work submitted.
