Summary/Abstract: In this study the author presents the results of a complex comparative analysis of the constitutional provisions on the organization and functioning of public administrations of the Central and Eastern European Administrations. The juridical constitutional regime of the principles of democratic administration in each state is discussed following the logic of the comparative approach and allowing for the formulation of policy implications accross the European administrative area. The subsequent paper contains the conceptualisation of the analysis for the constitutional provisions of local government in Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania higlighting the diversity of democratic organization and functioning of public administrations accross the EU and the attempt for harmonisation and recognition of local selfgovernment principles mandated by the European Charther of Local Self-Government.
