This study assesses the growing role of municipal governments in environmental management in the formerly Communist states of Central And Eastern Europe and discusses both their challenges and their opportunities in the current transition to a market economy and a more decentralized structure of governance. The conditions and policies of the Czech Republic are used as an illustration, with the City of Decin, North Bohemia as a specific case.
