The scientific monograph on European Administrative Space (EAS) offers in-depth analyses of the respective notions, such as those elaborated from systemic, methodological, geographical and contextual aspects. It includes 14 chapters from 21 prominent scholars and practitioners from different European countries (Belarus, Belgium, Croatia, Georgia, Luxembourg, The Netherlands, Poland, Serbia, Slovenia, Sweden) and international organizations, some of which are the salient papers from the NISPAcee annual conference held in 2016 in Zagreb. Authors address the EAS as a complex concept in progress, both theoretically and practically. It is considered to be an important tool in the absence of a formal European Union (EU) acquis in the field of public administration, which leads to the necessary integration of EU values, goals, activities and methods to enable the EU political and macroeconomic goals and an effective and equitable implementation of its legal order. Consequently, this book contributes, based on the administrative science framework, as an integrative discipline, to the further evolution of the EAS and good public governance with democratic and efficient public administration worldwide.
