Abstract: The state is a unique institution, placed above all others organizational forms of the society. In order to exist, the state must meet three indispensable elements: territory, population and Government, which means that the state is defined as a human collectivity, permanently set on a certain territory and having a structure of sovereign institutions. The role of the state as the main institution which provides the organizational and political steer of the society is ensured by certain functions, such as: legislative, juridical, organizational, economical, social, educational-cultural, ecological, country defensive, or of organizing the collaboration with other states, and last, but not the least, the states has an administrative function, by which it provides services to the population in order to ensure the normal flow for activities such as: energy, transport and salubrity. Romania entered the European Union on the 1st of January 2007, having replaced the centrally planned economy with the market economy with convergence to the EU practices and standards. The Romanian public administration has been radically transformed during the last 20 years, from public administration specific to the totalitarian regime to one suitable for a democratic regime.
