The Local – Central Tension Redefined? Green Policies in CEE Countries

Abstract

The aim is to illustrate the responses of CEE countries - with emphasis on public, social and private actors of CEE - to challenges of green policies. Particular attention is paid to the tension between local and central levels. Therefore, a key role is played by the question whether, and if so, to what extent, the implementation of green policies influences – alongside some other tensions (e.g. the war in Ukraine, the migration crisis) – the relations between actors at both levels.
