Abstract

Civic budget (participatory budget) shows us that public administration is multiform. It is a relatively new institution of direct democracy which has been implemented since 2011. It does not have a specific legal framework. For that reason, it is adapted to well-known forms, such as social consultation or – on the contrary – to other ideas. In this case, the citizens’ budget may be based on statutory tasks executed by municipalities, rules regulating public finances or social contracts. Each way allows using other features of this institution. Neither is perfect, though.
