Abstract:
Romania's integration into the European Union represents a great challenge for the local government. It is the one who must implement successful social models of Western democracies: quality public services, reduce bureaucracy, transparency and efficiency in public spending, high standards of performance for public institutions. The transition to "democratic centralism" a specific manner of organizing a totalitarian state administration, decentralization and autonomy for local decision-making, was the touchstone for the Romanian government in recent years. Are these years of accumulation sufficient for local government so that it will rise to the level of local Western democracies?
