Summary/Abstract: Throughout history, European States took after each other as far as administrative issues were concerned and shared certain elements characterizing those administrations; however, the existence of a European public administration does not imply imitation of a model, but some “unity in diversity”. Imitation of a model of administration would mean giving up national traditions, sweeping out cultural diversity, and denying the identity of the rule of law. One may speak about a specific form of administration at the European Union level if and only to the extent that such a set of activities and institutions are doubled by a number of mechanisms identifying the European citizens' needs, function on the basis of the same or similar principles as a national administration, adopt and apply policies satisfying the social needs, implement them, while also having at their disposal bodies and institutions that evaluate and control how these policies are applied.
