Popis | In our research we focus on two selected Slovak accountability mechanisms – the Supreme Audit Office and the Ombudsman. The goal is to assess the potential contribution of these accountability arrangements to the anchoring of social innovation in the public sector. The theory expects that accountability mechanisms, like SAO and Ombudsman activities may create feedback loop supporting public innovations. On the base of the comprehensive set of data reviewed, interviews and the general knowledge, we can state that such feedback loop almost does not function in the Slovak reality and we also provide certain explanations why. |
