The results for domestic investment are mixed and not very convincing and for the fixed effects model. 
Rezultati za domaæe investicije miješani su i nisu baš uvjerljivi za model s fiksnim uèincima.
It is significant only at the 10% level after controlling for the FDI stock variable. 
Signifikantne su samo na 10%-tnoj razini nakon što se ukljuèi varijabla stranih ulaganja.
The exports of Croatian manufacturing industry have been stagnating over the last 
Izvoz hrvatske preraðivaèke industrije u posljednjih je desetak godina stagnirao.
Over the same period there have been relatively high inflows of foreign direct investment (FDI) into industry. 
jekom istog razdoblja zabilje en je relativno visok priljev izravnih stranih ulaganja u industriju.
The aim of this paper was to examine, after controlling for other potentially significant variables, whether these inflows have had an 
Cilj ovog rada bio je ispitati je li taj priljev utjecao na kretanje izvoza, uzimajuæi u obzir kretanja drugih potencijalno signifikantnih varijabli.
After including FDI and domestic investment variables, the significance of productivity diminishes and in some models it is no longer relevant for exports. 
Dodavanjem varijabli izravnih stranih ulaganja i domaæih investicija signifikantnost produktivnosti se smanjuje i u nekim modelima prestaje biti statistièki znaèajna determinanta izvoza.
This implies that the part of productivity growth that was due to FDI and domestic investment, was relevant for export growth. 
To implicira da je onaj dio porasta produktivnosti koji je nastao zbog izravnih stranih ulaganja i domaæih investicija relevantan za porast izvoza.
The impact of FDI was relatively weak, while the results for domestic investment are mixed for the fixed effects specifications. 
Utjecaj samih stranih ulaganja relativno je slab, dok su rezultati o utjecaju domaæih investicija miješani za procjene s fiksnim efektima.
On the other hand, the results of the random effects estimations reveal a positive and significant effect of domestic investment on exports. 
U isto vrijeme rezultati modela sa sluèajnim efektima pokazuju pozitivan i signifikantan uèinak domaæih investicija na izvoz.
This effect was also relatively weak, but still somewhat stronger than for the FDI. 
Intenzitet tog utjecaja takoðer je relativno slab, ali ipak nešto snaniji nego za strana ulaganja.
This suggests that there are some constraints on export expansion, due to either limited production capacity or, more likely, the lack of modern production technology in Croatian manufacturing industry (or both). 
To upuæuje na zakljuèak da postoje neka ogranièenja za poveæanje izvoza zbog ogranièenih proizvodnih kapaciteta ili, vjerojatnije, zbog nedostatka moderne tehnologije u proizvodnji hrvatske preraðivaèke industrije (ili oboje).
A clear recommendation for economic policy is to promote investment in order to overcome the existing limitations. 
Jasna preporuka gospodarskoj politici jest promicanje investicija radi nadvladavanja postojeæih ogranièenja.
Some of the ways in which this may be accomplished are improving investment climate in the country and attracting more FDI in the manufacturing industry. 
Neki od naèina kojima se to mo e postiæi jesu npr. poboljšavanje investicijske klime u zemlji ili privlaèenje više stranih ulagaèa u sektor preraðivaèke industrije.
Lower unit labor costs also significantly contributed to promoting exports. 
Ni i jedinièni troškovi rada takoðer su signifikantno pridonijeli promicanju izvoza.
This result too is in line with expectations. 
I taj je rezultat u skladu s oèekivanjima.
Although the significance of the unit labor costs also diminishes after including the investment variables, they still remain a significant determinant of exports, with a higher coefficient than the productivity variable. 
Iako signifikantnost jediniènih troškova rada takoðer pada uvoðenjem investicijskih varijabli, oni ipak ostaju statistièki znaèajnija determinanta izvoza nego produktivnost, s dosta sna nijim utjecajem.
It has been mentioned that unit labor costs alone are probably not sufficient to explain changes of exports, due to the different cost bases of competitors in different industries. 
Spomenuto je da jedinièni troškovi rada sami po sebi vjerojatno nisu dostatni za objašnjenje kretanja izvoza zbog razlièite osnove troškova konkurenata u raznim industrijama.
Despite this fact, the results suggest that the relative level of wages is an important factor for export competitiveness. 
Usprkos toj èinjenici, rezultati upuæuju na zakljuèak da je relativna visina plaæa va an èinitelj izvozne konkurentnosti.
At the same time, it is difficult to draw clear conclusions about the role of real effective exchange rate development. 
U isto vrijeme teško je donijeti jasne zakljuèke o ulozi realnoga efektivnog teèaja.
Most specifications show positive, strong and significant impact on exports, but this is weakened after including investment variables in the model. 
Veæina specifikacija pokazuje pozitivan, sna an i signifikantan utjecaj na izvoz, ali je taj utjecaj oslabljen uvoðenjem investicijskih varijabli u model.
This may be due to loss of degrees of freedom in the specifications with more variables. 
Moguæi razlog tome je gubitak stupnjeva slobode u specifikacijama s više varijabli.
However, the effects of changes of imported input prices due to exchange rate changes may weaken the theoretically predicted influence of the exchange rate on exports. 
S druge strane, utjecaj promjena cijena uvezenih inputa zbog promjena teèaja mo e oslabiti teoretski predviðeni utjecaj teèaja na izvoz.
With respect to FDI, it has been mentioned that there is a potential for improving 
Kad je rijeè o izravnim stranim ulaganjima, veæ je spomenuto da postoji potencijal
the export performance of Croatian manufacturing industry by attracting more FDI into this sector. 
za promicanje izvoza hrvatske preraðivaèke industrije privlaèenjem više stranih ulagaèa u taj sektor.
9 This calls for more active investment-promoting policy measures. 
9 To zahtijeva aktivniji pristup promicanju ulaganja.
However, the policy makers should also try to enhance the potential positive effects of FDI by targeting specific export-oriented greenfield foreign investment, and, in addition, implement measures which should increase potential spillover effects. 
Meðutim, nositelji ekonomske politike takoðer bi trebali poveæati potencijalne pozitivne uèinke stranih ulaganja ciljajuæi na specifièna izvozno orijentirana greenfield strana ulaganja i provodeæi mjere koje poveæavaju potencijalne efekte prelijevanja.
The public administration is still inefficient and corrupt, the judiciary is slow and thus the protection of property rights is inefficient. 
Dr avna je administracija još uvijek neefikasna i korumpirana, sudstvo je sporo i stoga je i zaštita vlasnièkih prava nedostatna.
The relevant infrastructure is still underdeveloped, despite large public investment in road building. 
Relevantna infrastruktura još je uvijek nedovoljno razvijena unatoè velikim javnim ulaganjima u gradnju cesta.
The Law on Investment Promotion leaves lots of room for discretionary decisions increasing the uncertainty of potential foreign investors regarding the treatment to be expected; it discriminates between domestic and foreign enterprises as well as between small and large companies, giving domestic and larger firms certain advantages. 
Zakon o poticanju ulaganja ostavlja mnogo prostora diskrecijskim mjerama, što poveæava nesigurnost za potencijalne ulagaèe glede oèekivanog tretmana; postoji diskriminacija izmeðu domaæih i stranih ulagaèa, kao i izmeðu malih i velikih poduzeæa, pri èemu se domaæim velikim poduzeæima daju neke prednosti.
It also implies more favorable treatment of companies in certain industries, especially of labor-intensive production. 
Takoðer se omoguæuje povoljniji tretman nekih industrija, posebno radno intenzivnih.
There are no special incentives for export-oriented investment projects, from which the most spillover effects can be expected especially if they are conditional on more extensive use of domestic inputs into production. 
Nema posebnih poticaja za izvozno orijentirane ulagaèke projekte od kojih se mogu oèekivati najveæi pozitivni efekti prelijevanja, posebno ako se uvjetuju intenzivnijom uporabom domaæih inputa u proizvodnji.
Special treatment of export-oriented FDI gains even more importance for a comparatively small market such as the Croatian. 
Poseban tretman izvozno orijentiranih stranih ulaganja dobiva dodatnu va nost za relativno malo tr ište kao što je hrvatsko.
Babiæ, Pufnik and Stuèka (2001) also point out that investment promotion activity has been very low and that the Law on Investment Promotion was more “words on paper”. 
Babiæ, Pufnik i Stuèka (2001) takoðer istièu da je aktivnost vezana za promicanje ulaganja bila vrlo niska i da je zakon o promicanju ulaganja bio više “deklarativne prirode”.
In other words, they see its major purpose in gaining political points for the coalition government from 2000 to 2004, while the actual political willingness for stronger FDI promotion is lacking. 
Drugim rijeèima, oni njegovu osnovnu svrhu vide u dobivanju politièkih bodova za Vladu od 2000. do 2004. godine, dok stvarne politièke volje za privlaèenje stranih ulaganja nije bilo.
While dealing with the above problems would certainly contribute to higher FDI 
Rješavanje spomenutih problema svakako bi rezultiralo veæim priljevom stranih
Basically, host countries may condition FDI incentives on mandatory measures or use the incentives to encourage investors to behave in certain way (UNCTAD, 2003). 
U osnovi, zemlje primateljice ulaganja mogu uvjetovati poticaje za strane ulagaèe nekim obvezujuæim mjerama ili se mogu njima koristiti da bi potaknuli ulagaèe na odreðene poslovne prakse (UNCTAD, 2003).
Such performance requirements may include the export orientation of production, which has already been mentioned, but they may relate to training of local workers and technology transfers as well. 
Takvi prohtjevi mogu obuhvaæati veæ spomenutu izvoznu orijentaciju proizvodnje, ali se mogu odnositi i na edukaciju lokalnih radnika i na transfere tehnologije.
An important aspect of the host countries' policies aimed at enhancing benefits from FDI is to strengthen the host countries' own capabilities. 
Va an aspekt politike zemalja primateljica ulaganja kojom se cilja na poveæanje pozitivnih uèinaka stranih ulaganja jest jaèanje kapaciteta tih zemalja.
Only if the human capital in host countries is at a sufficiently high level regarding the relevant skills can there be increased absorptive capacity for the knowledge spillovers disseminated by the foreign investors. 
Samo ako je ljudski kapital u zemlji primateljici na dovoljno visokoj razini glede relevantnih znanja i vještina, poveæana je i moæ apsorpcije prelijevanja znanja koja dolaze sa stranim ulaganjima.

E-PUBLIC SERVICES: THE CASE OF E-TAXATION IN SLOVENIA 
ELEKTRONIČKE JAVNE USLUGE: E-OPOREZIVANJE U SLOVENIJI
It argues that although this service can be developed well, according to the many benchmarking models in the world and become very familiar to members of the public , it can also be used poorly. 
Iako je tu uslugu u javnoj upravi pojedine države moguće uspješno razviti prema jednome od brojnih postojećih model u svijetu i premda je građanima dobro poznata, ona se ipak rijetko koristi.
The empirical results in the paper prove this. 
Empirijski rezultati u članku to i dokazuju.
The case of Slovenia is presented, with a placement of Slovenia on the European map of e-government and a thorough description of the different electronic taxation services available to Slovenian citizens. 
Slovenski je primjer predstavljen u usporedbi s drugim europskim e-vlastima te s opisom različitih elektroničkih usluga oporezivanja kojima raspolažu građani Slovenije.
Slovenia ranks above the EU average in online availability and in sophistication. 
Slovenija je prema kriterijima dostupnosti online usluga i njihovoj sofisticiranosti iznad prosjeka EU.
The supply side of e-taxation services is then compared to the demand side and the results of different research studies and questionnaires are discussed and compared. 
Ponuda usluga e-oporezivanja uspoređuje se s potražnjom dotičnih usluga te se raspravlja o rezultatima raznih istraživačkih studija.
Since e-taxation services, especially concerned with personal income tax, are still to be used more widely by Slovenian citizens, different existing approaches that have tried to correct the situation are analysed and new possibilities are suggested. 
Budući da usluge e-oporezivanja, posebice poreza na dohodak, još čekaju širu primjenu u Sloveniji, analiziraju se različiti postojeći pristupi kojima se pokušava poboljšati postojeće stanje te se predlažu nove mogućnosti.
Key words: e-government, e-taxation, citizens' satisfaction, Slovenia

1 Introduction of e-government 
1. Upoznavanje elektroničke vlasti
The whole “post industrial” society of the developed world and the world in development is transforming into an information society based on e-business and electronic communications in the private sector, public sector and personal life. 
tu, tako i u zemljama u razvoju, transformira se u informacijsko društvo zasnovano na e-poslovanju i elektroničkim komunikacijama u privatnome i javnom sektoru te u osobnom životu.
E-government is a significant part of the information society since it is a part of everyday life in different fields of personal and business life. 
U razvijenom svijetu e-vlast ima ključno značenje za privatni sektor jer javni i privatni sektor uvelike međusobno komuniciraju i posluju, a za građane je to korisna novost.
In modern e-government a great deal of attention is devoted to the customer. 
U suvremenoj e-vlasti velika se pozornost pridaje korisniku.
In discussions of e-governance, the focus tends to be placed particularly on the interaction between customers and the public administration and customer orientation. 
U raspravama o e-vladavini (engl. e-governance) težište se stavlja na interakciju između korisnika i javne uprave, odnosno na orijentaciju prema kupcima/korisnicima.
According to Buckley (2003) e-government and e-public services should be identi 
Prema Buckleyu (2003), e-vlast i elektroničke javne usluge (engl. e-public services)
E-government means the provision of government information to citizens, the facilitation of active participation and consultation with citizens. 
E-vlast podrazumijeva opskrbu građana državnim informacijama, olakšavanje aktivnog sudjelovanja i konzultacije za građane.
It is often called or includes e-democracy. 
Često je sinonim za pojam e-demokracije (ili ga sadržava).
On the other hand e-public services, often called e-administration, means the delivery of public services to citizens, business partners and suppliers, and those working in the government sector by electronic media including information, communication, interaction, contracting and transaction. 
Usto, elektroničke javne usluge, koje se često nazivaju i elektroničkom upravom (engl. e-administration), podrazumijevaju isporuku javnih usluga građanima, poslovnim partnerima i dobavljačima te onima koji rade u državnom sektoru, i to uz pomoć elektroničkih medija, pri čemu se razlikuju pružanje informacija, komunikacija, interakcija, ugovaranje i provedba transakcija.
The negative consequences include, most importantly, higher costs for purchase and maintenance of ICT equipment, additional communication channels, additional knowledge requirements, the need for policies and plans. 
Najvažnije su negativne posljedice viši troškovi nabave i održavanja opreme, dodatni komunikacijski kanali, dodatna potreba obrazovanja te potreba donošenja pravila i planova.
While planning e-government, it is often envisaged that the costs involved will be limited to purchase costs for ICT equipment while the costs of maintaining and upgrading ICT, educational cost for ICT users, costs for additional human resources for management and maintenance of ICT (or outsourcing costs) are quite often forgotten. 
Pri planiranju e-vlasti, očekivani su troškovi često ograničeni na troškove nabave IT opreme, a mnogi zaboravljaju troškove njezina održavanja i dogradnje, troškove obrazovanja korisnika, troškove dodatnih ljudskih resursa za upravljanje i održavanje IT-a (ili troškove outsourcinga).
When e-government is implemented, new communication channels appear. 
Nadalje, kada se e-vlast primjenjuje, pojavljuju se novi komunikacijski kanali.
Next to existing channels like telephone, postal services and personal contact, which are not abolished, new channels like e-mail, e-forums, video conferences, electronic team work, electronic transactions and others appear. 
Uz postojeće kanale kao što su telefon, poštanske usluge i osobni kontakti, pojavljuju se novi kanali, poput elektroničke pošte, e-foruma, videokonferencija, elektroničkoga timskog rada, elektroničkih transakcija i sl.
New technology demands new knowledge on the demand (members of the public) and the supply side (public administration employees). 
Nova tehnologija zahtijeva nova znanja, kako od svojih korisnika (građana), tako i od pružatelja usluga (zaposlenika u javnoj upravi).
Education in schools may be able to educate the younger generations, though even they depend on the education system being of sufficient quality and sufficiently up-to-date. 
Obrazovanje u školama može biti dovoljno za obrazovanje mlađih generacija, iako ta činjenica ovisi o kvaliteti i razini kojom sustav obrazovanja prati suvremene trendove.
The older generations are often left behind. 
Nažalost, starije generacije često su potpuno zapostavljene.
The segment with the fewest problems is probably the private sector, which has overtaken the public sector through its search for profit. 
S najmanje problema vjerojatno će se suočavati privatni sektor, koji je zbog težnje za ostvarivanjem dobiti u uporabi elektroničkih usluga nadmašio javni sektor.
From the private sector come customers waiting for public sector e-services, ready to use them with all the technology and knowledge already in place. 
Korisnici iz privatnog sektora spremno čekaju na elektroničke javne usluge te za tu svrhu već posjeduju potrebnu tehnologiju i znanje.
E-government based on ICT usage and its advantages should also lead to changes 
E-vlast, zasnovana na uporabi IT-a i njezinih prednosti, trebala bi rezultirati i pro
in working processes and procedures. 
mjenama u radnim procesima i postupcima.
If we really want to take advantage of all the positive factors that ICT brings, we must change the processes. 
Ako zaista želimo iskoristiti prednosti svih pozitivnih čimbenika koje donosi IT, moramo promijeniti procese.
Business process reengineering is needed rather than just process automatisation. 
Reinženjering poslovnih procesa potrebniji je od njihove jednostavne automatizacije.
ICT influences or could influence the structure of public sector organisation, shaped on the basis of Weber's principles of bureaucracy theory (Weber, 1946). 
IT utječe, ili bi mo gao utjecati na strukturu organizacije javnog sektora oblikovanu prema Weberovim načelima teorije birokracije (Weber, 1946).
The rigid top-down structure prevents all the advantages offered by ICT from being utilised (Bearman, 1992). 
Kruta struktura, usmjerena odozgo prema dolje, sprečava iskorištavanje svih prednosti IT-a (Bearman, 1992).
The new possibilities of networked hierarchies and horizontal virtual organisations or working groups are new types of working environment that have many advantages but represent new and untested surroundings and new challenges in the area of public administration. 
Nove mogućnosti umreženih hijerarhija i nehijerarhijskih virtualnih organizacija ili radnih grupa novi su tipovi radnog okruženja koji imaju mnoge prednosti, ali nisu provjereni u praksi te su stoga novi izazovi u području javne uprave.
Some authors write about system-level bureaucrats and street-level bureaucrats (Snelen 1998, Reddick, 2005). 
Neki autori pišu o “sistemskoj birokraciji” (engl. system-level bureaucrats) i “direktnoj birokraciji” (engl. street-level bureaucrats) (Snelen, 1998; Reddick, 2005).
Street level bureaucrats are public servants who have direct contact with citizens and system-level bureaucrats are the information systems that have replaced street-level bureaucrats through automation of their decision-making processes (Reddick, 2005). 
Direktnu birokraciju čine službenici u javnom sektoru koji imaju izravan doticaj s građanima, a sistemsku birokraciju informacijski sustavi koji zamjenjuju članove direktne birokracije automatiziranjem njihova procesa donošenja odluka (Reddick, 2005).
Through system-level bureaucrats and e-government services, ICT therefore enables cases to be processed more quickly, improves the monitoring of processes and performance, enhances the performance of organisations and also prevents employees from manipulating the information (Snellen, 2002). 
Dakle, uz pomoć sistemske birokracije i usluga e-vlasti IT omogućuje bržu obradu slučajeva, poboljšava nadzor postupaka i djelotvornosti, povećava učinkovitost organizacija te usto sprečava zaposlenike da manipuliraju informacijama (Snellen, 2002).
The latest research and theories indicate that ideal e-government is focused on serv 
Najnovija istraživanja i teorije naznačuju da je idealna e-vlast usredotočena na usluge
ices offered through life events (such as having a baby or building a house; instead of birth certificate, health insurance, social security number for a newborn or gas permit, plumbing permit, electrical permit and others for building a house). 
usmjerene na pojedine događaje u životu (npr. na rođenje djeteta ili izgradnju kuće umjesto na ponudu pojedinačnih usluga kao što je izdavanje rodnog lista, zdravstvenoga i jedinstvenoga matičnog broja za novorođenče, dozvole za uvođenje plinskih, vodovodnih ili električnih instalacija i ostalih dozvola za izgradnju kuće).
This can be observed through many of the most developed government web portals in the world. 
To je vidljivo na mnogim web portalima najrazvijenijih država svijeta.
The users of many services are of course citizens that are not all familiar with legislation, procedures and government structure. 
Korisnici mnogih usluga su, naravno, građani koji nisu upoznati sa zakonodavstvom, postupcima i državnom strukturom.
Since government frequently makes requirements of citizens it is in the government's own interest to achieve this as fast as possible, as cheaply as possible and with a satisfied citizen at the end. 
Budući da država često nameće zahtjeve građanima, u njezinu je interesu da se ti zahtjevi ispune što je prije i jeftinije moguće i da, na kraju, rezultiraju zadovoljnim građanima.
