Chikhladze, L.T. Historical and theoretical aspects of development of local self-government and local government in the European states (part 2)

Abstract: Historical experience in the sphere of state, community and rural self-government, which has been accumulated over thousands of years of development of human society, plays a great role in understanding of the genesis of state and law as a whole. This work by L.T. Chikhladze is devoted to the issues of municipal history, and also to a lenghty and contradictory process of formation of local government and self-government of various European states, as mirrored in their modern conditions. Author also views municipal issues related to the NIS countries, as well as problems of centralization and decentralization, of concentration and deconcentration.
