This book provides an overview of countries in transition – some are part of the EU, others are not (yet). Even if starting positions, sizes, economic capacities and political directions are quite different, there is some geographical and historical commonality. If there is one indicator to consider this book as ‘successful’, it is that peoplewill read it to know what goes on beyond the broader lines, and that this exercise will be replicated in another, let’s say, ten years. Then this study will be part of a collective scientific memory – a European memory for the future. The country studies presented in the main body of this book provide comprehensive information about public administration and public management reforms in selected states of Central and Eastern Europe. The tries to summarise the main findings and formulate some conclusions from the point of view of the main idea of this book.
