Abstract

Dąbrowski M. Engineering multilevel governance? Joint European Support for Sustainable Investment in City Areas (JESSICA) and the involvement of private and financial actors in urban development policy, Regional Studies . Joint European Support for Sustainable Investment in City Areas (JESSICA), one of the financial engineering instruments (FEI) within European Union cohesion policy framework in the 2007-13 period, created scope for developing cooperation between sub-national authorities and financial institutions and private investors. Anchored in the literature on multilevel governance, this paper examines how the implementation of this instrument has affected the patterns of sub-national governance in Poland and Spain. Despite stimulating learning processes and the emergence of unprecedented cross-sectoral partnerships, the implementation was hampered by numerous obstacles, underlining the limitations of multilevel governance and of FEI as tools for promoting urban development.
