Summary/Abstract: The Politics section warns that political disputes within the Bucharest city-hall have very serious consequences for both the citizens and the credibility of the whole decentralization process. The present situation has a peculiar history of conflict along party lines, and it makes the Romanian capital virtually ungovernable. There is a way out from the current stand-off, however, and it is in the central government’s power and interest to do something about it.
