Abstract

The author examines the actual condition of the civil servants in Romania, both in the rights that are provided for them by the present legislation and in the perceptions of the citizens. This perspective imposed the merging of an analysis of the legislation with a sociological one. The first is based on the evidencing of the constitutional and legal provisions that protect the right of the public servants and the second one unravels the results of some sociological field researches that show the way in which the citizens regard the mayoral institution and the activity of the civil servants. In the town of Craiova, these evaluations are mostly positive, but they are correlated with certain other measures too, for the improvement of the activity of those who work for the local public administration.
