Abstract (english)

The subject of this thesis is the analysis of executive bodies at the local level and the reform of local self-government, i.e. the introduction of direct election of mayor in some European countries and Croatia. Local executive bodies fulfill the important role of connecting political ideas with administrative capacities that implement those ideas . The aim of the reform is to make the executive function more influential so that it can fulfill its tasks more efficiently. In the first part of the paper various functions, types and methods of election of local executive bodies are listed. After that, the focus shifts to the introduction of direct election of mayor and the reasons that lead to its popularization and wider application on the European continent, and examples of its implementation in some European countries are given. Finally, the main focus of this paper is on the reform of Croatian local self-government. In this part of the paper, the executive bodies are analyzed before the implementation of direct elections, the expectations and reasons for its introduction are stated, and the results achieved are evaluated in the conclusion.
