Rediscovering governance behind right government practices. Democracy as basis, territorial development as result (original) (raw)

This paper examines the concept of governance, arguing that the current systems are inefficient and lack true democratic values, which hampers effective policy implementation. It advocates for a renewed understanding of governance that emphasizes transparency, accountability, and the need for both top-down and bottom-up strategies to enhance citizen engagement in decision-making processes. The authors propose that reinforcing democratic principles can lead to sustainable socio-economic territorial development.
