SHORT CONSIDERATIONS REGARDING SUBSIDIARITY AS A PRINCIPLE OF DIVISION OF COMPETENCIES BETWEEN ADMINISTRATIVE ECHELONS

Summary/Abstract: In the context of the debates in the Romanian society on the need of the administrative reform by introducing the regional level, this paper aims to raise a number of issues related to the viability and pertinence of the consecration of subsidiarity as a principle to guide the administrative organization of the Romanian state. Withou offering concrete solutions we propose, mainly, to emphasize European standards in the local autonomy domain as they result from the European Charter of Local Self-Government of the Council of Europe (coercive instrument of international law into national law2) and from the role as structuring vector of debates about administrative reform in Romania that this international instrument should have it.
