Project Report from the year 2007 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, , language: English, abstract: Public service both national and local in Europe is characterised by a great diversity and specificity . The institution of public service itself exists in all European countries, but the regulation differs considerably. This is due to several factors which are, among others, the structure of the State, conception of the notion of general interest, impact of decentralisation movements and cultural pluralism of local authorities. The regulation depends mainly on the weighting of the public law governed career system and the civil law governed employment system of public service. Most of the European countries have chosen a hybrid model. Thus, the field of law regulating the personnel of the public service is a mixture of public and civil law. Three systems of regulation of public service can be observed across Europe, depending on the amount of implication of public law in the public service sector: the employment system (I.), the career system (II.) and hybrid systems (III.). It has to be stated though, that the realisation of pure systems do not exist and that every system is more or less hybrid.
