Abstract
The research includes the Efficiency Analysis of local governments in Junin Region (2009 - 2014 period), using the Data Envelopment Analysis - DEA method and Malmquist Index which is applied to “Identify a efficiency unit set that serve as a reference for local governments in the region, to promote compliance with the institutional mission and local government competences, and consequently, promote the integral development of its jurisdiction”. The working hypothesis was: “Local governments that report efficiency levels will reach the fulfillment of its mission and its competences as well as their duties’ performance, successfully promoting the integral development of its jurisdiction.” The achieved results, applied to three local governments competences -local public services; physical space organization and land use; local social services- indicate that Junin local governments do not reach permanent efficiency levels over time. Finally, it is not possible to identify efficiency Decision Making Units (DMU) that serve as a reference for Junin local governments, thus, limiting the fulfillment of its institutional mission and proper functions and duties’ performance, adding to the economic and social development detriment of its jurisdiction.
