This book measures and explains the formal authority of intermediate or regional government in 42 advanced democracies including the 27 EU member states. It tracks regional authority on an annual basis from 1950 to 2006. The measure reveals wide variation both cross - sectionally and over time. The authors examine four influences functional pressures democratization European integration and identity to explain regionalization over the past half - century. This unique and comprehensive volume will be a vital resource for students and scholars of comparative politics public administration and public management federalism democratization nationalism and multilevel governance.
