Mediterranean regionalism from territory to trains: spatial politics and planning of macro-regions and transport networks in Spain
2015
The contested planning of European macro-regions and Trans-European Transport Network (TEN-T) exemplifies the complexities of spatial politics, territorial and relational. What stratagems – discursive and cartographic – may regional actors employ in the process, and what can we learn from them? In context of European Union integration policies, we explore Spanish regional politics – discursive and cartographic – surrounding planning of cross-border regions and a TEN-T “Mediterranean Corridor” (and its alternatives). The contested remapping of macro-regions and transport networks reveals the role of spatial planning in the vertebracio (structuration in Catalan) of European territory in disti…
Theoretical Approach: The Situation-Structural Model as an Analytical Tool to Explain Regionalism
2017
This chapter provides the analytical framework and guiding theory for this work. Muntschick develops an innovative situation-structural model to the analysis of regionalism that goes beyond Euro-centric and classic integration theories because it takes the impact of external actors explicitly into account. This—often neglected—aspect is of crucial importance in regions with mainly developing countries that show strong and asymmetric relations to extra-regional actors. Besides offering clear-cut definitions of regions and regionalism, Muntschick draws on insights from cooperation and regime theory in order to specify assumptions and deduce hypotheses about the emergence, institutional design…
New Regionalism—Not Too Complex for the Media Watchdog
2014
As cities grow and expand, governance networks advocated by the “new regionalism” have become increasingly important for policy making in metropolitan areas. This article examines media reporting about governance networks and the effect this reporting has on democratic accountability and legitimacy. We use data from a standardized content analysis of newspaper coverage about metropolitan policy making in four European metropolitan areas (Zurich, Berlin, Paris, and London), as well as survey data on citizens’ attitudes. We find that the leading newspapers adequately cover governance processes and pay attention to both governmental and nongovernmental actors. Media content is correlated with…

Corti e lunghi circuiti politici. Il caso Nunzio Nasi
2017
This work aims to read the practices of modern politics in the conflict between the center and the periphery. The emergence of moments of conflict between the local political level and the national level allows us to observe the way of acting, the choices, the actions, the languages of the actors who move along these two dimensions. We will try to show that local situations are not exceptions to a general and abstract, universally valid and accepted norm, but more likely it is exceptional and should be considered only as an emergent effect of the irreducible multiplicity of local contexts.
Overlapping Regionalism and Security Cooperation: Power-Based Explanations of Nigeria's Forum-Shopping in the Fight against Boko Haram
2019
AbstractRegional conflicts increasingly require multilevel efforts by regional, subregional, and international actors. When states are confronted with a cooperation problem, often there are several institutions available to address this issue. Drawing on the literature of overlapping regionalism and forum-shopping, we argue that existing explanatory models benefit from adding power-based explanations. By conceptualizing an issue-specific dimension and factors specific to the national environment as additional power-based criteria for forum-shopping, we expand the existing literature. Applying our framework to the response to the Boko Haram uprising, our study examines why Nigeria preferred …

Il regionalismo differenziato di cui all'art. 116, co. 3, della Costituzione: un tentativo di inquadramento sistematico nel Titolo V della Costituzio…
2021
The paper analyzes the origins and characteristics of the differentiated re- gionalism referred to in art. 116.3 of the Constitution, highlighting the impact that its implemen- tation could have in Title V of the Constitution, in relation to both ordinary regions and regions with special status. The widespread nature of differentiated regionalism could, in particular, lead to the definitive, tough gradual, overcoming of regional uniformity, towards a model of mainly differentiable regionalism.
