Abstract

The present article offers a brief analysis of the main juridical elements that shape the necessary framework for the organisation and coordination of public function in two administrative systems, namely Romania and France, as well as the most recent normative changes, objectives and accomplishments of public function reform in the two states. Explored mainly through qualitative methods (evaluation of specialized legislation and literature and the comparative approach), the complex topic of public function, and its newest evolutions in the countries under study, offers an interesting and rich field of research.

Similarities and differences between the two reform processes and approaches have been highlighted, together with the results attained.
