EUs roll i förvaltning och dess effekter: Från direkt styre till flernivåstyre
(2023) SGEL36 20231Department of Human Geography
- Abstract
- The EU carries out several of its’ goals through programmes. From sustainable energy, improved social welfare and regional development. One way this is done is through the financing and managing of various programmes. Some of these programmes are managed through shared management in how they function. Meaning that the EU are co-funding programmes that are in turn managed by local governments in its’ member states through EU guidelines, contrary to direct management where first party sources are the only ones involved. This essay aimed to observe how two of these programmes, one directly managed and one shared, placed in the Swedish region of Västra Götaland have been established and distributed within the region. Through this analysis I... (More)
- The EU carries out several of its’ goals through programmes. From sustainable energy, improved social welfare and regional development. One way this is done is through the financing and managing of various programmes. Some of these programmes are managed through shared management in how they function. Meaning that the EU are co-funding programmes that are in turn managed by local governments in its’ member states through EU guidelines, contrary to direct management where first party sources are the only ones involved. This essay aimed to observe how two of these programmes, one directly managed and one shared, placed in the Swedish region of Västra Götaland have been established and distributed within the region. Through this analysis I attempted to observe whether any differences could be seen in the different types of management. This was done through a quantitative comparative case study of the programmes where all of the projects within these programmes were placed on maps to observe the geographic distribution of each program. I attempted to explain these differences through multi-level governance and potential effects of the management through Campbells (1996) planner’s triangle of conflicts. These maps’ focus were on three characteristics of the projects, the focus of the projects the programmes managed, the financing and the geographic distribution. The results of the analysis were that with the programmes different sizes in mind, there was a discrepancy in the distribution of the projects within the programmes, both thematically and economically. The distribution of the directly managed program was more focused around core areas of the region and thematically less varied. This could be linked to both patterns in multi-level management and potentially create or expand conflicts within the region. (Less)
