En analysant vingt tentatives de réforme structurelle menées dans 10 pays de l’OCDE, ce rapport examine pourquoi certaines de ces réformes politiques sont appliquées et d'autres non. Les études de cas présentées dans l’ouvrage illustrent un large éventail de démarches visant à la réforme de trois secteurs cruciaux : ceux se rapportant aux systèmes de retraite et à la réglementation des marchés du travail et des produits. Les facteurs clés qui dans le domaine de la politique, de l’économie et dans le cadre spécifique du processus de réforme soutiennent celle-ci ou, au contraire, l’entravent sont identifiés tandis que ces résultats font l’objet d’un recoupement effectué en utilisant un ensemble relativement simple de corrélations des rangs de Spearman. La double approche analytique – à la fois quantitative et qualitative – se révèle particulièrement édifiante pour les responsables politiques qui conçoivent, adoptent et mettent en application des réformes politiques structurelles.

A trend toward decentralisation has meant that sub-national governments increasingly find themselves responsible for providing a host of public goods and services. Rarely, however, can they "go it alone". Co-ordination among levels of government is imperative. This book offers a unique analytic framework for assessing multi-level governance arrangements, which is subsequently applied to five case studies of regional development policy: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. The book reveals the importance of contractual arrangements for customised management of interdependencies, for clarifying responsibilities among actors, for dialogue, and for learning.
