    In the first, policy part of the course we introduce the students into the theoretical basics of politics,

    political-governmental decision making, as well as into the socio-political and institutional framework

    of sustainable local/urban development. We will examine the economic, political-governmental,

    institutional and cultural factors, their effect on local decision making, relations between the various

    levels of territorial/regional levels as well as examine the most important policy areas in EU context.

  • MAIN INFORMATIONS!

    Due to COVID-19 pandemic restrictions, we have to hold online classes this semester.

    Next Wednesday (September 9th), we will have a Teams meeting which starts at 10 am and lasts until 5 pm. We will have a smaller break around 12:00 and a lunch break between 2 pm and 3 pm. There will be classwork (online search), so please have a laptop available.

    However, we consider it important to have a personal meeting and get to know the planning location (Komárom town). That’s why we’re going on a bus trip next week (September 16th). Please set aside the entire day for the program.
