La justicia es un bien público y, en consecuencia, en el seno de la Administración Pública, el correcto funcionamiento de la Administración de Justicia tiene capital importancia para una sociedad. En la actualidad, el sistema judicial español es objeto de severas críticas, que lo califican de ineficiente y tardío. Un gran sector social y profesional de la Administración de Justicia considera que la falta de medios es la causa de su mal funcionamiento, y reclaman mayor inversión. En este trabajo analizamos si ambas aseveraciones son acertadas: si es ineficiente la Administración de Justicia española y si un mayor gasto conllevaría a la mejora de este servicio público. Aplicando la metodología de Análisis Envolvente de Datos (DEA), determinamos la eficiencia de la Administración de Justicia española en relación con otras Administraciones de Justicia europeas y, mediante el análisis tobit, relacionamos las puntuaciones DEA y el gasto público. Nuestros resultados concluyen que un mayor esfuerzo en el gasto conllevará a una mejor posición. ABSTRACTJustice is a public good. Therefore, within the core of the Public Administration, the proper functioning of the Judicial Administration is of utmost importance to society. Currently, the Spanish Judicial System is being subject to sharp criticism that qualifies it as inefficient and belated. A large social and professional sector of the Judicial Administration considers that the lack of means is the reason behind its poor functioning and so, they demand greater investment. Throughout this paper the accuracy of both assertions will be analysed: whether the Spanish Judicial Administration is inefficient and whether a greater expenditure would lead to the improvement of such public service. By applying the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) methodology, the efficiency of the Spanish Judicial Administration is determined and compared to that of other European Judicial Administrations. Through the Tobit analysis, the DEA levels are related to the public spending. Our outcomes show that a greater expenditure effort will result into a better ranking position.
