Administrative reforms in the Italian National Recovery and Resilience Plan: a selective approach to bridge the capacity gap
The article investigates the impact of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, complemented by changes in the composition of government at the domestic level, on the patterns of administrative reforms in Italy. We draw on research arguments that rest on historical institutionalism, which constitutes an established approach to the study of administrative reforms. We elaborate on how history has connected well-established patterns of administrative reform to the design and governance of the NRRP measures that aim to provide better public services. We find the strongest support for the research arguments derived from the reactive approach to policy sequencing, entailing the co-existence of pre-pandemic patterns and innovative policy feature
The Draghi Government put to the Test by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan
The political and institutional trajectory of Italy was clearly punctu-
ated by the economic upheavals of the pandemic. The articles in
the special issue aim to assess the character of the institutional
change prompted by the economic response to the pandemic, and
in particular by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), in
different policy areas. Three contributions analyse the reform
dynamics related to the strategic axis of the Italian NRRP, namely
digitalization and innovation (Ottone and Barbieri), the ecological
transition (Cotta and Domorenok), and social inclusion as concerns
labour-market policies (Tassinari). Two contributions focus on two
overarching priorities of the NRRP: gender equality (Donà) and
development of southern Italy (Cerruto, Cersosimo and Raniolo).
Finally, one contribution focuses on reform of the public adminis-
tration, which has been identified as a key area, affecting horizon-
tally all missions in the NRRP (Di Mascio, Natalini and Profeti).
Overall, the articles in the special issue highlight that the pandemic
has been followed by a process of institutional change that
occurred both incrementally and unevenly, often disguising sub-
stantial continuity
Administrative reform under mutating populism in office. Insights from Italy (2018-2022)
This paper tracks the dynamics of administrative reform across two areas (civil service, simplification) in Italy, focusing on the XVIII parliamentary term, which has been characterized by the presence of populist parties in three different coalition governments (Conte I, Conte II, Draghi). The alternation in power between different governments has occurred in a context marked by the shift of the EU economic governance from a logic of conditionality to a logic of solidarity in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. After a decade of EU-led austerity, the shift of the EU economic governance was expected to support and enable administrative reform at the national level. Our findings reveal that the structural lack of time induced the Draghi government to focus administrative reforms on a limited number of domains to produce quick and relevant results. This selective approach focused on capacity building represented an improvement into patterns of administrative reform if compared with what happened under the Conte I and II government, which have displayed a marked chasm between the level of talk and the level of action. This has been due partly to populist parties having not pursued a distinctive agenda in matters of administrative reform beyond the loud tones, and partly to EU fiscal constraints
