Internal coordination of social security in Italy
2019
This contribution deals with the internal coordination of health care, long-term social care and social assistance schemes – covered by EU regulation no. 883/2004 – in Italy after the constitutional reform enacted in 2001, which significantly decentralised legislative and administrative machinery by strengthening the prerogatives of the Regions, especially in terms of organisation and funding of the services. This article seeks to demonstrate that, although the decentralisation of health care and long-term social care has been accompanied by mechanisms of internal coordination among the Regions (particularly in the field of inter-regional mobility), regional social assistance schemes provi…
IL CONTRATTO AZIENDALE IN TEMPI DI CRISI. Esperienze euro-mediterranee a confronto
2017
Nell’ultimo decennio il decentramento contrattuale ha conosciuto una forte accelerazione soprattutto negli Stati convenzionalmente racchiusi nel modello “euro-mediterraneo” (Italia, Francia, Grecia, Portogallo e Spagna) parallelamente all’acuirsi della crisi economico-finanziaria: il contratto aziendale può infatti derogare sempre più alle disposizioni di legge e alle clausole del contratto nazionale, venendo a incrinare il paradigma novecentesco dell’inderogabilità. In tale processo di riscrittura della contrattazione un ruolo chiave è stato giocato dalle istituzioni europee ed internazionali attraverso strumenti di harde soft law (New European Economic Governance), sulla base dell’assunto…
Pursuing decentralisation : regional cultural policies in Finland and Sweden
2021
In both Finland and Sweden, decentralisation has traditionally been an essential cultural policy aim. This article explores how, by pursuing decentralisation, the regional jurisdictions have been presented with more possibilities to fulfil their purposes and in this way, gain legitimacy in cultural policy. Based on the analysis of political, legal, and administrative documents, three main periods of regional decentralisation in cultural policies are identified: regions as vehicles of welfare policy, regionalisation, and competitive regions. In both countries, national governments have promoted the regional level’s agency, and in doing so, potential institutional change in cultural policy. H…
La contrattazione collettiva in Europa del Sud al tempo della crisi: aziendalizzazione, europeizzazione, americanizzazione
2018
Il saggio analizza i recenti sviluppi della contrattazione collettiva in Europa del Sud all’insegna del trinomio aziendalizzazione-europeizzazione-americanizzazione: nonostante le differenze strutturali, i sistemi analizzati hanno notevolmente rafforzato il ruolo del contratto aziendale nel sistema delle fonti rispetto alla legge e al contratto nazionale, oltre che funzionalizzato la rappresentanza dei lavoratori in azienda a meccanismi di verifica effettiva del consenso. Tale traiettoria, frutto della governanceeconomica europea quale risposta alla crisi, porta a una convergenza funzionale dei sistemi sud-europei verso quello statunitense, ove prevale la regolazione di prossimità. The essa…

The review analyses the recent report on "La negociación colectiva en Europa. Una perspectiva transversal", directed by prof. dr. Cruz Villalón, whose main quality lies in the trinomial europeanisation-decentralisation-liberalisation: more particularily, the report highlights the current trajectory of industrial relations within the European Union member States, and how the neo-liberal ideology and the tools of the EU economic governance have contributed to strengthen the prerogatives of company agreement in the government of the employment relationship.

A DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT APPROACH TO ASSESS HOW DECENTRALISATION POLICIES MAY REDUCE ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION FROM MINES IN ZAMBIA
The economics of pollution in general and pollution control in particular is a relatively new branch of economic science. This has brought about economic and social interest due to the fact that most of the pollution is caused by economic activity such as mining. Pollution from mining has become a world-wide problem. While environmental problems vary in detail, it is a fact that mining emits damaging pollutants, a reason this study was undertaken. As a result of this, threats to the environment and human health continue to escalate. This research aimed at investigating how a Dynamic Performance Management approach, through System Dynamics, may support policy-makers and public managers in im…
From real-life experience to map. Using landscape as a tool for decentralized urban planning
2010
International audience; The large diffusion of GIS is greatly improving the capacities of territorial analysis; yet these tools are increasing the weight of cartographic representations and the gap between the everyday's space and the space of town planning projects. GIS are certainly essential tools, but they require a reflection about their territorial effects. The maps of "intervisibility" which are produced this way are difficult to understand and address the issue of mediation. We propose to contribute to the reflection through experiments conducted in France. We successively used maps and photos within the framework of town planning projects; we are now able to propose a protocol whic…
