In our workshop, we scrutinize administrative values, norms and practice in the interwar period. We are interested in continuities and change in administrative culture, in terms of procedures, symbols, formal and informal rules and regulations as well as personal attitudes. The effects of administrative reforms and the role of national linguistic changes will be taken into account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
