摘要:
A central goal of the 1980s reforms gf the European Community's regional development policy was to contribute to an increase in the discretionary authority of sub-national decision-makers in the Community's member states. This article assesses the degree to which this goal was attained through comparative studies of selected French and Italian regions. It concludes that only in those regions in which timely policy entrepreneurship on the part of regional-level elected leaders coincided with the pre-existence of a territorial policy Community for economic development did the transfer of resources from the Community contribute to regional empowerment.
