Exploring the dynamics of municipal governance within the European Union, this report examines the balance between local authority and external oversight. It questions the extent of independence municipalities possess when subjected to higher-ranking institutions' supervision and directives. The analysis suggests that such oversight may actually prevent municipalities from violating laws, thereby reinforcing the state's functionality. This investigation delves into the complexities of local governance and the implications of regulatory frameworks on municipal autonomy.
