摘要

斯洛伐克是一个基本上由小城市组成的国家，本文调查了该国城市间合作的障碍。在市镇结构分散的情况下，考虑到规模经济，市镇间合作可以降低提供服务的成本，同时保持甚至提高服务质量。本研究旨在确定斯洛伐克市镇间合作的障碍。研究采用了问卷调查和定性专家意见的方法。地方公共服务的成本节约潜力被认为是开展市际合作的动力。已确定的主要障碍是交易成本（不同类型）、不存在基准（没有定期比较最佳解决方案）以及选择最佳服务提供模式的动力有限。

Barriers to inter-municipal cooperation

This article investigates barriers to inter-municipal cooperation in Slovakia, a country that is essentially formed of small municipalities. In a fragmented municipal structure, inter-municipal cooperation could be the way to achieve lower costs for service provision while maintaining or even increasing a quality service, taking into account economies of scale. The study aimed to identify the barriers to inter-municipal cooperation in Slovak conditions. The study uses a questionnaire and a qualitative expert opinions method. The potential of cost saving in local public services was identified as a motivation for inter-municipal cooperation. The main identified barriers are transaction costs (of different types), non-existent benchmarks (no regular comparisons of best solutions), and limited motivation to select the optimal mode of service provision.
