Qué entienden los ciudadanos por transparencia? El componente punitivo de la transparencia
Este trabajo arroja luz sobre los determinantes de la concepción ciudadana de la transparencia. A partir del análisis teórico y de la evidencia empírica basada en grupos de discusión y encuestas, los resultados confirman que los ciudadanos con menor nivel de confianza institucional perciben la transparencia como una política de control de los Gobiernos. La hipótesis causal de las políticas de transparencia asume que su objetivo fundamental es inc…
Women Leadership at the Apex. The Distinctiveness of Urban Women Mayors in Europe
Women occupy leadership positions at all levels of government. While the topic has been extensively investigated and referred to national legislatures, other venues remain under-researched.

The first ones acceded…
Metropolitan challenges and reform pressures across Europe – the perspectives of city mayors
Metropolitan governance arrangements and their policy purposes have been a matter of debate among researchers and practitioners around the globe. While we may trace three broad schools of metropolitan governance – reform school, public choice theory and new regionalism – with each still having its proponents, we are interested to learn whether there are assumptions on metropolitan governance that have today become general knowledge among urban po…
Dealing with Austerity
Southern countries are undergoing a severe economic crisis that has renewed debates about the available strategies to economize their public resources. Political leaders have launched a wide range of different strategies aimed at reducing spending. According to generally accepted political discourse, drastic actions should be taken to guarantee economic and financial sustainability in times of austerity. We explore the main measures adopted by Sp…
