This thesis addresses the safety and protection of the population, which is one of the basic services and the role of the state and the public sector. The state may fail in this role because of insufficient coverage of the territory by units of state and municipal police, caused by lack of public resources. The aim of this work is based on the analysis of economic and legislative options, identify new alternative ways to deliver services and safety at the local level and to propose specific solutions based on public-private partnerships. The object of work is selected districts of central Slovakia and selected municipalities within those counties. The subject of research is the current system of protection and defense of secure state and local governments in the region as a public service. Within this framework, we focus on the efficiency and effectiveness of the current system.
