As the contents of this book show, this is not the case. One of the main reasons is that the context in which the transformations took place in the CEE region was characterised by huge dynamics and uncertainty. This asked for flexibility in responses. The book argues further that when there is a tradition of centralised state control, trends towards decentralization are not self-evident. The case studies show that the transfer of power from national to local government is often temporary, and is sometimes reversed in the opposite direction.
