Public Administration in the Third Greek Republic in the Context of the Economic Inefficiency of the State

In his article, the author raises a variety of issues related to the Greek public adminis- tration. The characteristics of the Greek administrative model are presented taking into account the distribution of the national and local government.
Later in the article, the author points to the relationship between the poorly construct- ed (and dysfunctional) Greek model of public administration and the economic prob- lems of the state. On the basis of empirical research in the form of in-depth interviews and analysis of existing data, the author offers some conclusions concerning the Greek government, dealing with a major disability in its functioning. It also identifies various pathological phenomena that have occurred, or are taking place in the Greek govern- ment, for example: overstaffing in the public sector, excessive bureaucracy, corruption, or irresponsible financial policy. In the final part of the article, the author raised the issue of the challenges for the Greek model of public administration, from the point of view of the organisation and man- agement of this administration. In addition, the author points to the indispensability of these challenges, taking into account the efficient functioning of public administration in the future.
