Organising the Central State Administration

Public| Printed: Yes

A comparative analysis is made of the central administration of various European Union (EU) member states. Legislation, regulation and organization of various countries are examined. The main purpose of the paper is to provide orientations based on a comparative approach to policy makers on drafting legislation on the organisation and functioning of the state administration. It is therefore written in a practice oriented way, although it nevertheless attempts to draw some generalisation.
