 The www.localmonitoring.eu website received a 5/10 PageRank classification

We gradually worked our way up during one and a half year from a 3/10 onto the 5/10 PageRank value. In our branch only big organizations, like KSH can achieve such a great level on PageRank, while only the largest organizations can get a 6/10 classification. Our current performance due to the daily fresh news on the website, our conferences and our special products like the ‘Szemere’ index.

Our philosophy:

"The immunities of townships, which have been obtained with so much difficulty, are least of all protected against the encroachments of the supreme power. They are unable to struggle, single-handed, against a strong and enterprising government, and they cannot defend themselves with success unless they are identified with the customs of the nation and supported by public opinion. Thus until the independence of townships is amalgamated with the manners of a people, it is easily destroyed; and it is only after a long existence in the laws that it can be thus amalgamated."

 Alexis Tocqueville: De la démocracie en Amérique / Democracy in America

"Parmi toutes les libertés, celle des communes, qui s'établit si difficilement, est aussi la plus exposée aux invasions du pouvoir. Livrées à elles-même, les institutions communales ne sauraient guère lutter contre un gouvernement entreprenant et fort ; pour se défendre avec succès, il faut qu'elles aient pris tous leurs développements et qu'elles se soient mêlées aux idées et aux habitudes nationales. Ainsi, tant que la liberté communale n'est pas entrée dans les moeurs qu'après avoir longtemps subsisté dans les lois."
