PNRR, autonomia differenziata e divari territoriali: rischi e opportunità per la coesione nazionale

Sustainability is now a crucial issue for territorial development, especially in southern Italian regions, where environmental, social, and economic challenges are more acute. The paper reflects on the inadequacy of traditional redistributive policies and the need for place-based interventions grounded in local specificities. It also examines the relationship between the NRRP and differentiated autonomy, highlighting the strategic role of local authorities and co-governance as tools to reduce territorial disparities and promote sustainable development.
