Abstract

"Although there is a consensus on the need for an active employment policy, there are still differences in opinion on which tools should be used to achieve employment policy objectives. The aim of the paper is to examine whether the instruments of active employment policy in the EU countries using the LMP database have been effectively set up, as there is a clear difference in the allocation of public expenditure and how it is provided according to specific support programs. The results suggest that countries such as Austria, Sweden and Germany are examples of the right policy setting (from the allocation of funds to their evaluation). If we evaluate the position of Slovakia, according to the results of the studies, we can say that the most effective tools are in the field of education and therefore the volume of their funding should be increased. Instruments from the Employment incentives section, where Slovakia has the most funds, were found to be effective, but only on the short term, therefore we recommend reassessing the 51.80% stake in this section. The least effective instruments are in the Direct job creation section, in which Slovakia also invests the lowest amount of funds."

“就业政策制定有效吗?”欧盟国家与斯洛伐克个案研究”

“虽然大家一致认为有必要采取积极的就业政策，但对于应该使用哪些工具来实现就业政策目标，意见仍然存在分歧。本文的目的是检查欧盟国家使用LMP数据库的积极就业政策工具是否已有效建立，因为公共支出的分配与如何根据具体支持计划提供公共支出存在明显差异。结果表明，奥地利、瑞典和德国等国家是制定正确政策的例子(从资金分配到评估)。如果我们根据研究的结果评价斯洛伐克的立场，我们可以说，最有效的工具是在教育领域，因此应增加其供资的数量。斯洛伐克拥有最多资金的就业激励部分的工具被发现是有效的，但只是在短期内，因此我们建议重新评估该部分51.80%的股份。最不有效的工具是直接创造就业的部分，斯洛伐克在这部分投入的资金也最少。”

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.
