LE AREE INTERNE PER LO SVILUPPO DEL TERRITORIO E LA COMPLEMENTARITÀ DI PROGRAMMI E STRUMENTI FRA LE POLITICHE EUROPEE DI SVILUPPO RURALE E DI COESIONE
Le Aree Interne rappresentano un tema particolarmente importante per la programmazione e la spesa dei fondi comunitari nel periodo 2014-2020 perché costituiscono il più grande esempio di complementarità fra le Politiche europee di sviluppo rurale e di coesione. Per lo sviluppo di queste Aree è stata creata una Strategia Nazionale per le Aree Interne (SNAI) che mira alla valorizzazione ed al recupero di tutti quei territori (rurali, montuosi, svantaggiati) dal carattere marginale rispetto alla disponibilità e all’offerta di servizi essenziali. La peculiarità di tale Strategia è quella di promuovere lo sviluppo di aree che sono uniformemente distribuite in tutto il comprensorio nazionale a di…
Migrant Financial Remittances—Between Development Policy and Transnational Family Care
2011
AbstractFor some time now, migrant financial remittances internationally have been the target of politics and research in many ways. However, the predominant focus of looking at remittances is from a development perspective. This article looks at this approach from a critical perspective and calls for an expansion of the discussion on remittances by linking financial remittances and transnational family care.
Gobernanza democrática para el desarrollo: Las estructuras de cooperación en los municipios en riesgo de despoblación de la Comunitat Valenciana
2020
[ES] La muerte anunciada de muchos municipios del interior montañoso y rural de España pone de relieve la catástrofe que puede suponer en términos de pérdida poblacional, patrimonial, cultural, económica y medioambiental. La toma de conciencia de ese problema obliga a poner en marcha políticas que modifiquen esta deriva. Nuestro propósito en último término es diseñar una política de desarrollo integral para estos territorios. A este fin, el objeto concreto de este trabajo es realizar un diagnóstico territorial en relación a las estructuras de cooperación existentes en los territorios en riesgo de despoblación de la Comunidad Valenciana.

Beyond Foreign Policy? EU Sanctions at the Intersection of Development, Trade, and CFSP
2022
In the wake of unsettling conflicts and democratic backsliding, states and organisations increasingly respond with sanctions. The European Union (EU) is one of them: Brussels makes use of the entire toolbox in its foreign policy, and its sanctions appear in different forms—diplomatic measures, travel bans, financial bans, or various forms of economic restrictions. Yet, there is little debate between different strands in the literature on EU sanctions, in particular concerning measures under the Common Foreign and Security Policy and those pertaining to the development and trade policy fields. Our thematic issue addresses this research gap by assembling a collection of articles investigating…
Identity, Instrumental Self-Interest and Institutional Evaluations: Explaining Public Opinion on Common European Policies in Foreign Affairs and Defe…
2008
This paper addresses public opinion on common European policies in foreign affairs and defence. It proposes three models of support for common policies in these fields. Drawing on Eurobarometer data, the analysis shows that instrumental self-interest and territorial identities contribute considerably to explaining support for common foreign affairs and defence policies. Moreover, support for common policies is strongly driven by domain-specific evaluations of the European Union's performance. These findings suggest that popular support for common European policies in foreign affairs and defence has an experiential base. Thus, elites have an incentive to respond to public opinion when makin…
Aligning Inner Peripheries with rural development in Italy: Territorial evidence to support policy contextualization
2021
Abstract Inner Peripheries is a recent concept based on both peripherality and marginality features, thus far from the commonly adopted geographical notion of periphery. Inner Peripheries are fragile territories covering rural Europe, which suffer from depopulation, low economic potential, and weak territorial cohesion. However, these territories are extremely important for the provision of goods and services, and the stewardship of natural and semi-natural environments. Such dichotomous condition poses several challenges for planning in the EU context, particularly regarding the implementation of the Rural Development Policy. Therefore, current planning needs to contextualize the policy im…
Latvia. Human Development Report 2004/2005: Human Capability in the Regions
2005
The purpose of the publication is to look at human development as the expansion of opportunities for human activities and capability. So far, the Human Development Reports of Latvia have analysed important components of this process (human security, partnership among the individual, the state and the private sector, and social cohesion) and have researched social processes (globalisation, social integration during a transition period, etc.) that significantly affect human development. This Report assesses the progress of human development in the regions.
Nordic Cooperation in the Nuclear Safety Sector: High, Low, or Differentiated Integration?
2020
Nordic cooperation has been depicted as eroding due to the increased importance of EU-related cooperation and integration. However, scholars propose that longstanding Nordic networks, grounded in professions and located in the state administration, may prove to be more robust toward external changes. This article discusses this proposal by looking at Nordic cooperation between the national radiation protection and nuclear safety authorities in Iceland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and Finland. The article maps behavioural perceptions of agency staff based on a dataset of 37 interviews to illustrate if the cooperation between the Nordic authorities is characterized by high integration, low integ…
