Abstract

In January 2021, the Local Autonomy Act was completely amended, and the era of 'decentralization 2.0' came into operation. The core of local autonomy can be said to be resident autonomy and fiscal decentralization, and the key to securing the soundness of local autonomy can be said to reflect the preferences of the residents well. This can be shown by how satisfied the residents are with the budget organized through the resident participation in the budget making process.
 The purpose of this study is to examine the satisfaction of residents in Chungcheongnam-do with respect to the direction of fiscal expenditure and next year's investment in the Chungcheongnam-do participation budgeting. As a result of a survey on fiscal expenditure satisfaction and future investment directions for budgeting in Chungcheongnam-do, it was found that social welfare, general public administration, public order, and safety were generally dissatisfied. As a result of a survey on the direction of future fiscal expenditure investment adjustment, it was found that an increase in public order and safety and environmental fields was needed, and cuts were needed in general public administration and social welfare fields. In addition, it is also necessary to present a direction for seeking mid- to long-term and sustainable policy projects rather than one-time short-term projects in future fiscal expenditure investments.
