Shaping Meso-Level Governance in Hungary

Ilona Pálné Kovács

Sažetak

The paper deals with the shaping process ofmeso-level governance ín Hungary. This process can be subdívíded into four phases: The first was the enaetment of the law on local government in 1990 whích almost completely eliminated the former territorial units, the counties. The second phase can be characterised by the correction and substitution of the missing meso level in the form of expansion ofstate administration and emerging different types of quasi organisations and tiers. The third phase after 1996 was devoted to the adaptation to European regional policy creating NUTS régions although after the accession the régions
could not become powerful actors in the management of Structural Funds, The fourth phase is just starting with the réalisation that we should follow our own model based on our own needs, The shape of the new model is still very unclear but we should take into considération that regionalism is not a question of the geographica! scale but rather of décentralisation and the culture ofcoopération refemng to the new model of »governance«.
