The book argues that differences between local government systems in Europe, typical examples of internal affairs of a State, can be smoothed away by construing a consistent system of constitutional principles to be coherently applied at domestic level across the whole European legal space. This system can be best grasped by looking at the European Charter of Local Self-Government, which embodies a concept of self-government rooted in common legal traditions, and at its subsequent practice within the Council of Europe.Studies in territorial and cultural diversity governance ;Volume 9.Local governmentLaw and legislationEuropeInternational and municipal lawEuropeConstitutional lawEuropeMunicipal governmentEuropeElectronic books.Local governmentLaw and legislationInternational and municipal lawConstitutional lawMunicipal government342.409Boggero Giovanni1067697MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910511638803321Constitutional principles of local self-government in Europe2551757UNINA
