Decentralization is a widespread and international phenomenon in public administration. Despite the interest of public management scholars, an in-depth analysis of the interrelationship between two of its forms – deconcentration and devolution – and its impact on policy and management capacities at the local level is seldom investigated.,This article addresses this gap by examining the implementation of deconcentration and devolution processes in France and Italy in the cultural field, combining the analysis of national reform processes with in-depth analyses of two regional cases. The research is the result of document analysis, participatory observation and semi-structured interviews.,The article reconstructs the impacts of devolution and deconcentration processes on the emergence of policy and management capacity in two regions (Rhone-Alpes and Piedmont) in the cultural sector. The article shows that decentralization in the cultural sector in France and Italy is the result of different combinations of devolution and deconcentration processes, that the two processes mutually affect their effectiveness, and that this effectiveness is deeply linked to the previous policy and management capacity of the central state in a specific field/country.,The article investigates decentralization as a result of the combination of deconcentration and devolution in comparative terms and in a specific sector of implementation, highlighting the usefulness of this approach also for other sectors/countries

了解权力下放:法国和意大利文化部门的权力下放和权力下放过程

分权化是公共行政中普遍存在的国际现象。尽管有公共管理学者的兴趣,但很少深入研究其下放和下放两种形式之间的相互关系,及其对地方政策和管理能力的影响。将法国和意大利在文化领域的权力下放和权力下放过程的实施与国家改革过程的分析与对两个地区案例的深入分析相结合。该研究是文件分析,参与性观察和半结构化访谈的结果。这篇文章重构了权力下放和权力下放过程对文化部门两个地区(罗纳-阿尔卑斯和皮埃蒙特)政策和管理能力的出现的影响。该文章表明,法国和意大利文化部门的权力下放是权力下放和权力下放过程不同组合的结果,这两个过程相互影响其效力,而这种效力与该组织以前的政策和管理能力密切相关。特定领域/国家的中央国家。,本文以比较的方式和在特定的实施部门中研究了权力下放和权力下放的结果来研究权力下放,强调了这种方法对其他部门/国家的有用性
