Abstract

U Republici Hrvatskoj ustrojene su ukupno 555 jedinica lokalne samouprave, i to 428 općina i 127 gradova te 20 jedinica područne (regionalne) samouprave, odnosno županija. Grad Zagreb, kao glavni grad Republike Hrvatske, ima poseban status grada i županije, tako da je u Republici Hrvatskoj sveukupno 576 jedinica lokalne i područne (regionalne) samouprave. Rad je fokusiran na temu transparentnosti i digitalizacije u lokalnim samoupravnim jedinicama Republike Hrvatske. Važno je napomenuti i istaknuti da se radi o temi koju karakterizira dugotrajni proces koji je ubrzan radi izazovnih vremena. Primjerice pojava koronavirusa ubrzala je procese stvaranja jakih podloga za pružanje digitalnih usluga. Kako se mijenjala uloga građanina tijekom povijesti tako su se i mijenjale njegove potrebe. On je sada sposoban i od njega se traži da aktivno sudjeluje u kreiranju javnih politika i da bude aktivan u praćenju i davanju povratnih informacija tijelima javne vlasti. Republika Hrvatska još je na putu koji vodi vrhu ljestvice država koje su uspješne u transparentnosti i digitalizaciji. Ona svojim strategijama i zakonodavnim okvirom jača institucije koje su za to nadležne, a također i građaninu daje širi spektar usluga koje može zatražiti online i pratiti status svog predmeta. Rad analizira prethodno stanje s onim današnjim primjenjujući podatke nekih provedenih istraživanja i navodi primjere nekih gradova koji bi trebali biti uzor daljnjem razvoju.
