Issues of Identity and Local Governance in Decentralized and Federalist Regions

Abstract

The aim of the panel is to discuss several issues regarding the relationship between different levels of governance from supranational (e.g EU) and (multi)national state to the sub-national (regional, local) level. What are the best solutions for a decentralized state structure to function? What if the existent structure of the governance within a state does not satisfy stakeholders with different goals? How does supranationalism relate to the autonomy of the state or its local governments?
