Political Science I / The Civil Service
Practice question · Put in order

Arrange these developments in Spanish public employment in order.

Hints
  1. The starting point is what the rules were built against.
  2. Implementation follows the statute rather than preceding it.
Show the answer
  1. A patronage-based administration changing with each government
  2. Competitive examination established as the route of entry
  3. The 2007 Basic Statute of the Public Employee
  4. Provisions for professional career progression and performance evaluation
  5. Slow and uneven implementation of those provisions
Why

The last step is the honest ending. Reforms whose costs are immediate and whose benefits are diffuse are implemented slowly everywhere, and performance evaluation in a career service is the standing example, provided for in 2007 and still applied unevenly.
