    La forma di governo regionale e degli enti locali nella prospettiva federalista
    in Italian Papers on Federalism , n. 1/2013 ,  2013
    This article makes the point that the reforms in local bodies and the Regions introduced in recent decades have shifted political decisions from the representative assemblies to the executive branches and in so doing they have produced a federal-oriented development in the legal order. In particular, after highlighting some shortcomings of the 1999 and 2011 constitutional reforms, whose most striking outcome is their failure to set up a second “federal” type of Chamber, it shows that as a result of the direct election of the Presidents of the executive bodes of the regions and of the local bodies, conflicting dynamics between Regions and local bodies have developed that have triggered an exacerbated and selfish localistic fragmentation.
