Why studying the rise of sub-national governance?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe world is facing a climate crisis and many other challenges, which nation-states were meant to solve. This Eccellenza project investigates the extent to which “the sub”, meaning sub-national entities, is rising to solve these issues.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Objectives<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThis research project aims to collect research and observe how nations are changing, why the sub is rising, and if sub-national entities can be part of the solution to address such challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our objects of analysis<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nNew actors such as\u00a0cities<\/a> rebel against the decisions of their national government. Novel forms of governance cross borders<\/a>, and unprecedented movements ask for new forms of local autonomy<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nInterested in reaching us?<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe project is located at the University of Lausanne\u2019s\u00a0Institute of Political Studies<\/a>\u00a0and directed by\u00a0Assistant Professor Sean Mueller<\/a>. On these pages, you’ll gain more information on the project\u2019s\u00a0scope<\/a>, the\u00a0team<\/a>, and latest\u00a0news<\/a>.\u00a0You can also follow us on Twitter<\/a>. Thank you for your interest!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
