The scope of state activities, particularly of the public administration is increasing and becoming more demanding.

Contemporary approach of state administration needs to be rationalized and inclusive, due to global context, availability of information, higher level of citizen rights and increased needs and other factors. State is adopting new patterns, and one of them that enables the state to follow the social dynamic and rationalize its activities and resources is Public Private Partnership. In this paper the concept of Public Private Partnership has been presented with fundamental motives for its implementation, as well as the benefits and negative aspects, throughout the prism of three countries from Central and Eastern Europe, but practically the same geographical region and with similar political, economic and legal background: Bulgaria, Hungary and Bosnia and Herzegovina. The paper presents the legislative, political and administrative perspective of Public Private Partnership, having in mind that first two countries recently became European Union members, and are just completing the transition that the third country, Bosnia and Herzegovina is starting at the moment.
