Public services law.

Summary The back cover states: "The evolution of decentralization, the extent of the economic and financial crisis, and social difficulties have put public services back at the center of political and societal debates. Strongly influenced by European Union law, the definition of public services has become more complex and their legal regime has taken on a mixed form, mixing public and private law (competition law, consumer law, labor law). This book is intended for students of law, AES, political science and those preparing for administrative competitions. They will find: a renewed approach to the notion of public service, in the light of European law and particularly the Lisbon Treaty . a perspective on the management methods of public services, especially local public services, taking into account the recent laws relating to local authorities, and the consequences that these management methods may have on the principle of free administration . an in-depth study of the different laws of public service, in particular the principle of neutrality which has become the fourth fundamental law . a reflection on the situation of agents working in public services, who must adapt to the change in the management of the activity."
