Patto per la cura della città. Base giuridica e profili pubblicistici di un accordo negoziale tra Amministrazione e cittadini attivi

The agreement, as a negotiation tool, requires stable and normative references. Hence the need for a city council regulation to regulate the shared administration of common goods, establishing the minimum content of the negotiation agreement, its implementation and verification, both in progress and concerning the results. Even though it is a negotiation tool in which the Administration and citizens build a synallagmatic relationship on a civil plane, the pact must strengthen public powers’ centrality in building collaborative relationships with active citizens for the common good. Since it is a horizontal form of subsidiarity, recent and limitedly spread, this paper will attempt to take stock of state of the art concerning the Municipalities that have already used the agreement to grasp their characteristic traits and criticalities, including those emerging during the implementation.
