Centralizáltabbak

Centralizáltabbak is a Hungarian term formed from centralizált (centralized) with the comparative suffix -abb and the plural ending -ak. It refers to a group of entities that are more centralized in their structure or governance than others. The word is typically used in analytical writing to describe multiple objects, such as organizations, administrative units, or policy systems, that concentrate decision-making and authority at higher, central levels.

In political science and public administration, centralizáltabbak denote power arrangements where authority, budgeting, and policy implementation are concentrated centrally rather than devolved to regional or local levels. This can facilitate coordinated action, uniform standards, and faster decision-making, but may reduce local autonomy, local experimentation, and responsiveness to local needs. In organizational theory, centralizáltabb structures concentrate decision rights at a central headquarters, potentially improving strategic alignment and consistency but limiting initiative at lower levels.

Usage notes: the term is common in comparative and theoretical writing. It typically functions as an adjective modifying a plural noun (for example, centralizáltabb szervezetek) or appears in comparative constructions (e.g.,Az egyik rendszer centralizáltabb, mint a másik). It is less common as a stand-alone noun and usually appears within a sentence describing relative levels of centralization.

Example: A centralizáltabb szervezetek gyorsabban reagálnak a változásokra, de kevesebb autonómiát adnak a helyi egységeknek.
