Public Service Management within the Speci c Field of Archives

Abstract

This paper analyses the potential decisions to be made in order to improve the efficiency of archives management (either state or local government based versions). The  conclusion of the paper is that a central, hierarchical management system with territorial units is a better option  than a decentralised institutional solution, since the central  management could provide the same conditions and  unified directions to the professional and functional  (budgetary, maintenance and coordination work) staff.  However, with the territorial units, the organisations of the  archives could even support the local particularities to be  achieved.
