PART 1: Differences between countries
> How do countries differ according to some important variables?
Chapter 2.1.1
1.1 The 2 analytical dimensions
To compare administrative systems beyond national borders, different typologies and analytical
concepts have been proposed using yardsticks.
1) Traditions & cultures focusing on legal families and administrative cultures
2) Political-institutional features highlighting the multilevel macro-structure of public administration
1) Administrative traditions & cultures
→ 2 big distinctions in Europe
“The legal tradition of a country has a significant influence on the dominant values in administrative action and the way in
which policies are implemented or legal provisions executed, as well as the relationship between politics, citizens and
administration. This also applies vice versa.”
→ determines the context in which you work as a civil servant and thus your actions
