Abstract

The Decree No. 7631/2017 does not represent an example of policy success because only a limited number of Local Area Plans have decided to take advantage of the opportunity of defining a new district area and move towards an aggregation. In light of the theoretical and analytical framework presented in the book, in this chapter we will try to assess and explain the conditions that have made some aggregations successful. The idea at the basis of this analysis is that there was a combination of pre-determined conditions that were fundamental to bringing about new forms of stricter and more institutionalised arrangements for inter-municipal cooperation. This empirical effort represents a useful contribution to the literature focused on the analysis of models of intermunicipal cooperation, reflecting on which are the (structural) favourable conditions that may lead towards governance changes in order to improve the degree of coordination and cooperation.
