The aim of the research is to study new forms of taking political decisions in economics, to verify its best political and territorial arrangement, and its democratic level both intrinsic and extrinsic. Being faded the central position of national Parliament and being verified the "crises" of the political circuit, being realized the so-called economic globalization, new types of interests emerged, claiming for representation formula far from the traditional ones, that is politico-representative's. Moreover, being overcome the direct State intervention in economics and the centralistic organization of administration, we intend to analyse new forms and means of political negotiation in economics related to multilevel governance. The more and more social complexity needs different centres
of political decision. Social pluralism, indeed, also asks for a political polycentrism that needs homogeneity in the economic and social strategies. This research aims at investigating the seats of political trend as far as economics is concerned, evaluating the new role of the State, because of the erosion of its sovereignty determined both by EU community law and by the constitutional reforms (Title V). This will allow us to examine the new trends of multilevel decision making, especially in economics, regarding community and national level, the relationships between "public" and "private", and the relationships among institutional bodies. Then, theso-called open method of coordination (OMC), subsidiarity principle and fair cooperation will be analysed verifying its concrete application in economics; further, a particular stress will be dedicated to the networks of administrations and the regulatory
authorities even trying to verify their legitimacy and efficacy. The research, moreover, will analyse the unifying factors of the new political decision negotiation system. The strength of the "counter-limits" theory, the essential level of services and the contrast between the competition principle and the guarantee of social rights and the limit of the national interest will be particularly observed. Then, we plan to explore the connotations of the "public services of general interest" (underlining telecommunications, energy and gas sectors) as an evidence of the afore mentioned theoretical basis. In conclusion, we will study the so-called economic regionalism trying to single out the "best institutional level" to assign competences necessary to develop local productive economy.
