I am grateful to the participants in these projects, in particular, Osamu Ieda, Manabu Sengoku, and Tomohiko Uyama for supplementing my knowledge of local institutions in Eastern Central Europe and Central Asia. Moreover, this paper owes much to the recent publication: Osamu Ieda (ed.). The Emerging Local Governments in Eastern Europe and Russia: Historical and Post-Communist Development (Keisuisha: Hiroshima, 2000). * Corresponding author.
