This is an examination of administrative law and institutions in Central and Eastern Europe. In a series of case studies, discussing each country in the region in turn, it looks at the ways a range of administrative decisions are reached and at how the citizens affected by them are treated.

Following the constitutional and political reforms in Central and Eastern Europe of the 1980s, the time has now come for the whole-scale reform of public administration - the creation of a professional civil service; a clear sense of the objectives to be achieved by the administration; and the provision of adequate resources to perform the tasks of public administration. In addition, there must be a sound legal basis for public administration. Recognizing these realities, this text examines administrative law and administrative institutions in Central and Eastern Europe. In a series of case studies, discussing each country in turn, it looks at the ways in which a range of administrative decisions are reached and at how citizens affected by them are treated.
