Abstrakty

Włochy są państwem stojącym na rozdrożu federalizacji. W niniejszym artykule prześledzono ideowe i praktyczne zastosowanie procesu federalizacji we Włoszech, z perspektywy konstruktywistycznej teorii instytucjonalnej Colina Haya oraz z zastosowaniem metodologii process-tracing. Badania koncentrują się na krytycznych momentach i ideach stojących za każdym etapem federalizacji od czasu kryzysu w Tangentopoli w latach dziewięćdziesiątych. Wyniki zrealizowanych badań wskazują, że, po pierwsze, federalizacja we Włoszech jest procesem kierowanym przez elity, a interpretacja włoskiego federalizmu przez polityków wpływa na wynik zmian instytucjonalnych. Po drugie, federalizm jest ideą upolitycznioną, którą włoskie społeczeństwo i elity polityczne interpretują jako "narzędzie skutecznego rządzenia" lub "remedium na korupcję". Po trzecie, federalizm jest tematem uzupełniającym w dyskursie włoskim, z którego rodzą się idee związane z reformami gospodarczymi, społecznymi i politycznymi. Federalizm można jednak wykorzystać do wzmocnienia polityk z tych trzech warstw.(abstrakt oryginalny)

EN

Italy is a state, standing at the crossroads of federalisation. This article traces the ideational and practical application of the federalisation process in Italy, from the lenses of the constructivist institutional theory by Colin Hay and with the application of process-tracing methodology. The research is concentred on the critical junctures and the ideas behind each stage of federalisation since the Tangentopoli crisis of the 1990s. The research findings demonstrate that, firstly, federalisation in Italy is an elite-driven process, where the politicians' interpretation of Italian federalism affects the outcome of institutional change. Secondly, federalism is a politicised idea, which Italian society and political elite interpret as "the tool for efficient governance" or "the remedy for corruption". Thirdly, federalism is a supplementary topic in the Italian discourse, which yields ideas connected with economic, social, and political reforms. However, federalism can be used to reinforce the policies from these three layers.(original abstract)
