“…44 The first civic budgets began operating in Poland in 2011 and became widespread in larger cities by 2015. 45 The capital city of Warsaw first introduced the civic budget in 2015, and dog parks have been a major category of projects submitted since the first edition of the budget. Of the almost thirty dog runs operating in Warsaw at the end of 2019, two were chosen in the participatory budget for 2015, six in the budget for 2016, six for 2017, five for 2018 and one for 2019.…”

The article analyzes the emergence of dog parks in Polandi, on the basis of stories from local media, with emphasis on how dog park proponents justify the need for establishing dog runs. Even though official arguments present dog parks as an amenity that offers training opportunities for dogs, the guardians’ activism is motivated by the recognition of their dogs’ needs for off-leash play and social interaction with others dogs. The guardians often phrase the arguments using language that presents the interests of the human and the canine as inseparable, sometimes even merging the human and the dog through the use of second person plural. The article identifies this type of argumentation as an expression of more-than-human agency: the humans not only see themselves as speaking on behalf of their dogs, but see themselves as speaking with their dogs. However, the article also identifies social and cultural factors that have made dog parks a desirable amenity in Poland. These include the parks’ associations with progress, modernity and broadly understood “Western” culture. The drive to build parks is thus also tied with the desire for a spatial emblem of the recognition of the human-canine bond. These social and cultural factors also shape the hybrid agency at work in the Polish dog park debates.

“…It also bears noting that the legislative and executive authorities of local territorial governments in Poland are meant to represent the respective local communities, which is to say, to ensure the realization of the concept of direct democracy. However, for the purpose of better adjusting public services to the needs of citizens, the legislator envisaged the possibility to hold consultations with the citizens [77,78] whose main forms are the participatory budget [48,[79][80][81][82] and (only for rural areas) the Solecki fund [62,83,84]. The Solecki fund (pol.…”

How a Participatory Budget Can Support Sustainable Rural Development—Lessons From Poland

Since the announcement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the need for localization of SDGs has been emphasized. In this context, sustainable rural development is still a relatively undescribed area in the context of using the participatory budget as a tool to implement SDGs. Few countries have introduced legal regulations in practice, enabling the creation of participatory budgets (especially in rural areas), so a multifaceted analysis of a decade of Poland's experience may provide important guidelines for countries considering introducing such solutions, which we consider to be the main purpose of this study. This is the first study covering all communes where participatory budgets (Solecki Fund—FS) were created in Poland during the 2010–2018 period (up to 60% of all), covering both the analysis of the process of creating FSs, the directions of spending and the scale of spending (including regional differentiation), as well as legal regulations and the consequences of including central government support in this mechanism. On the basis of the research, it can be observed that, despite the small scale of FS spending, the number of municipalities using this form of citizen participation is increasing. At the same time, there is significant variation between regions, which indicates the flexibility of the FSs in adapting to the needs reported by residents. The analysed directions of expenditure indicate that the FSs are in line with the SDG objectives related to the improvement of residents' quality of life. It can be concluded that, despite the existing legal regulations, the introduction of the Solecki Fund undoubtedly depends on the political will of the local government's legislative authorities and the willingness of residents to participate in decisions on spending directions.

“…Di sisi lain dukungan lingkungan Guelph dan koalisi antara warga dan pemerintah membuka jalan baru untuk partisipasi warga dalam penganggaran pemerintahan. Kamrowska-Zaluska (2012:1996 dalam studi nya menemukan, peran partisipasi masyarakat dalam perencanaan menunjukkan evolusi anggaran partisipatif serta proses pelaksanaannya. Bila dilakukan dengan benar penganggaran partisipatif mungkin memiliki dampak yang nyata terhadap kebutuhan masyarakat sipil, membantu mendemokratisasi proses pengambilan keputusan, menciptakan dialog antara pejabat dan organisasi nonpemerintah (kasus negara Polandia).…”

The participatory budgeting process through social media has received attention in recent years, aims to increaseg citizen participation in government budgeting. The use of social media in many cases opposes the political practice assumptions of a budget lobbying to decide a specific budget post. Using conceptual article methods, we identified a participatory budgeting framework simulation using social media (Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, YouTube, Google+, Telegram) to provide detailed explanations of procedures or techniques, specific instructions, discuss, and describe the participatory budgeting practices determination. Therefore, it required an innovative way, academically claimed to give better budget transparency. This research resulted in some information i.e., with the participatory budgeting model through social media, the citizen can take part in the planning, decision-making, and monitoring budgets democratically. Finally, we consider the weaknesses of our knowledge, suggesting the participatory budgeting that can be tested in future research.

Penggunaan media sosial di banyak kasus menentang asumsi praktik politis anggaran dengan cara lobi untuk menentukan pos anggaran tertentu.

Oleh sebab itu diperlukan cara yang inovatif, secara akademis diklaim memberikan transparansi anggaran yang lebih baik. Penelitian ini menghasilkan beberapa informasi yaitu, dengan model penganggaran partisipatif melalui media sosial, masyarakat lebih demokratis untuk ikut dalam perencanaan, pengambilan keputusan, dan pengawasan anggaran. Terakhir, kami mempertimbangkan kelemahan pengetahuan kami, menyarankan penganggaran partisipatif yang dapat diuji dalam praktik penelitian masa depan.
