Book excerpt: More efficient use of school classrooms in Bulgaria's sparsely populated rural areas could free up funds to spend on other educational essentialsIn Eastern European countries in large social sectors such as education, inefficiency and technical deficiencies are the legacy of the old command economy.Bogetic and Chattophadyay examine the technical efficiency of classroom use (defined as the number of classes per classroom) in one transitional economy: Bulgaria. They examine that concept of efficiency in 199 urban and rural municipalities, using data envelopment analysis to generate efficiency scores. Those scores - discussed in terms of frequency and regional distribution - are then regressed on several socioeconomic variables.The researchers find significant relationships between the efficiency scores, on the one hand, and, on the other, the proportion of students in the population under age 20 (demand indicator), the number of teachers (variable input), the percentage of the municipal budget spent on education, and the degree of urbanization.Efficiency in the use of classrooms (in terms of classes) varies considerably among municipalities, and efficiency is highest in the capital city of Sofia. To the extent that some variation in efficiency reflects demand or demographic factors, there is little that policy can do to change the pattern. But some changes in municipal policy could increase the efficiency of classroom use without jeopardizing the fundamental learning objective. In some rural areas, for example, where there are few students and classroom utilization is low, it may be possible to consolidate several grades into multigrade classes and reduce the size of the teaching (and nonteaching) staff, while maintaining the quality of learning and maximizing the use of such fixed inputs as classrooms.To the extent that it is possible to use such classrooms more efficiently, savings could be generated in the municipalities that need them most: in demographically sparse, poor municipalities with a weak economic base. Those savings could then be reallocated to other educational essentials, such as equipment and materials.This paper - a product of the Country Operations Division, Europe and Central Asia, Country Department I - is part of a larger effort in the region to study social issues during the transition in South-Eastern European countries.

Book excerpt: February 1995 More efficient use of school classrooms in Bulgaria's sparsely populated rural areas could free up funds to spend on other educational essentials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Selected Issues paper investigates the role of debt overhang in explaining weak nonfinancial corporate (NFC) investment in Bulgaria using firm-level data. The study confirms a negative association between measures of debt overhang and investment for Bulgarian NFCs using firm-level data. Bulgaria’s NFCs are the most leveraged among new member states. The findings suggest that high NFC debt overhang could be an important drag on investment. While credit demand is likely to pick up in line with economic activity, high NFC indebtedness could continue to stand in the way of corporate credit recovery. A possible direction for future work is to investigate the existence of different investment cycles across business activities/sectors, and their role in explaining the identified negative relationship. Policies that help reduce the corporate debt overhang could help boost credit and growth. Policy initiatives such as an efficient corporate debt restructuring framework and tax measures could help corporate deleveraging. The findings suggest that high corporate debt could be an important drag on investment.

Book excerpt: The sweeping decentralization reform of the education system introduced by the Government in 2007 to promote greater school autonomy and more efficient spending produced impressive efficiency gains and set the foundation for better adjustment to local needs. Despite initial successes, lingering concerns remain about the accountability of schools to the local community. Thus, as a part of a continued engagement with the Government of Bulgaria, this study records the achievements of the reforms and highlights outstanding challenges. Its aim is to assess progress in the functioning of the model of delegated financing and governance in the education sector. The study aims to identify where the model could be strengthened to further improve the achievement of the objectives of the reform. The study focuses on four questions: (1) To what extent are the reforms leading to a more efficient system? (2) Is there any evidence that the quality of education had been impacted by these reforms? (3) What is the equity impact of the school closures? (4) How are accountability mechanisms affecting the role of the major stakeholders?

Book excerpt: This is the first public expenditure and institutional review on Bulgaria by the World Bank. The objective of this study is to outline public expenditure issues and policy directions to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of pubic expenditures in Bulgaria. It assesses fiscal sustainability and analyzes the efficiency and effectiveness of public expenditures and their institutional framework. Bulgaria has made substantial progress toward long-term macroeconomic stablility. Growth has been re-established, per capita income has improved, inflation has remained low, poverty has been reduced, and the external debt to GDP ratio has declined. Furthermore, the share of the private sector in the economy is increasing, major regulatory reform is underway, the banking sector is on more solid footing, and energy pricing reforms are improving efficiency, and reducing the fiscal burden. But challenges remain in the five sectors looked at - education, health, social protection, the state railways and energy sectors.

Download or read book An International Perspective on Economic Education written by William B. Walstad and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-01-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economics is taught in some form in the secondary schools of nations throughout the world. The subject is rarely taught in elementary schools, and while economics courses are offered in universities, the majority of students end their formal education with secondary school. Thus, the best opportunity for the economic education of the youth of a nation occurs in secondary schools. This book examines economic education at this critical level of the educational system. The teaching of economics in secondary schools varies across countries. These differences occur because of history, the structure of education, and other national factors. At the same time, there are common elements in the economic education of many countries, especially in content coverage. This contrast between the common features and the uniqueness of economic education in secondary schools of major industrial nations exemplifies the international perspective presented in this book. The international perspective is developed in the six sections of the volume. The first section discusses why nations should include economics in school curricula, and presents a framework for teaching economics that should have global appeal. Dissension and consensus on economic issues among North American and European economists are examined in the second section. The third section surveys the U.S. research literature on precollege economic education and assesses the current state of economics instruction in U.S. schools. The economics curricula and educational practices in seven other nations -- the U.K., Canada, Japan, Germany, Austria, Korea, and Australia -- are described in the fourth and fifth sections. The fifth section also presents international comparisons of economic understanding based on national testing in six of those nations. The sixth and final section explores the role of economic education in centrally planned economies, and its effects on the transition to a market economy, using Russia, Bulgaria, and China as case studies.
