La quota di forza lavoro pubblico al di sopra dei 55 anni è prossima al 45% rispetto alla media di 24% nei paesi dell'OCSE. L'Italia ha anche la quota più bassa di giovani che lavorano per il pubblico, dove solo il 2% dei lavoratori sono tra i 18 ei 34 anni. Ciò richiede una pianificazione attenta della forza lavoro, che assicurerà che la pensione di massa dei dipendenti non provocherà la perdita di memoria istituzionale e non pregiudicherà la qualità dei servizi pubblici.

Decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approachOECDregions
OECD presentation on decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approach.
About 90% of homes in the Netherlands depend on natural gas for heating. The Netherlands has made a commitment to phase out natural gas by 2050. To achieve the goal, the Netherlands has rolled out a natural gas-free pilot programme in 66 neighbourhoods. These neighbourhood pilot projects enabled municipalities to learn what it takes to start energy transition. Based on a city survey carried out across 26 local governments, key findings from this report call on national and local governments joining up their efforts to take place-based measures.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Source: Hooghe & Marks, 2016
Increased role of subnational governments
But mutual dependency across levels of government
and role of central governments remain strong

The Regional Authority
Index measures the
authority of regional
governments in 81
democracies or quasi-
democracies on an annual
basis over the period 1950-
2010
5. Why is cooperation essential in a multi-level
environment?
Mutual dependence between municipalities, regions and the central
government ⇒ requires effective cooperation mechanisms across sectors,
levels of government and jurisdictions
Cooperation does not occur spontaneously ⇒ the right instruments and
incentives need to be built
In a multi-level environment, different types of coordination gaps can impede
the effectiveness of public policies:
Unclear assignment of responsibilities
Unfunded mandates
Lack of capacities
Lack of cooperation at the relevant functional scale
6. Many countries have strengthened their tools for vertical cooperation

7. Cooperation across jurisdictions
Sub-national governments are
often fragmented and don’t
match functional areas
Administrative fragmentation is correlated with (6%) lower city productivity (and higher spatial segregation)

10. Key messages
Strengthening multi-level governance systems
Since most responsibilities are shared, it is crucial to build
adequate co-ordination mechanisms to manage these joint
responsibilities.
The way responsibilities are shared should be explicit, mutually
understood and clear for all actors
Responsibilities assigned to SNGs should be aligned with their
revenues.
It is important to ensure balance in the way various policy
functions are decentralised, to allow for complementarities
across decentralised policies and integrated policy packages, for
effective territorial development approaches
11. Key messages
Strengthening multi-level governance systems
Support cross-jurisdictional co-operation through specific
incentives
Capacity development at the subnational level must be actively
supported with resources from the centre, and require long-term
commitment.
Important to allow for pilot experiences in specific places/regions
– and permanent adjustments
Allow the possibility for asymmetric decentralisation
