A plausible argument in favour of reforming the territorial organisation of the
public power is the demographic situation in Moldova. Currently, the Republic of Moldova
is faced with a series of demographic issues that leave their mark on many processes that
take place. Here, I refer to the natural movement of the population, the migration
phenomenon, aging and pauperization of the population. Closely related to these processes,
there are also other phenomena: depopulation, de-urbanisation, and ruralization of urban
settlements in Moldova.
These tendencies and phenomena that take place in the Republic of Moldova require
a new principled approach for the territorial organization of public power. Under the newly
created circumstances, the population of local communities that are constantly shrinking
does not have sufficient means to finance the activity of local public authorities and
therefore, not having sufficient means due to the limited tax base, cannot provide quality
public services.

U radu se izlaže prvi dio prijedloga analitičkog okvira za opće razmatranje teritorijalne osnove lokalne samouprave. Obrađene su dvije sastavnice tog okvira: 1. opća načela na kojima se treba zasnivati podjela teritorijana lokalne samoupravne jedinice i 2. uvjeti koji ograničavaju odnosno faktori koji utječu na teritorijalnu podjelu. Valjanost analitičkog instrumentarija provjerava se na komparativnom materijalu. ; The paper contains the first part of the analytical framework for theoretical analysis of the territorial basis of local self-government. Two components of the framework have been dealt with: 1) general principles on which territorial organisation should be based in any developed local self-government system, and 2) conditions that limit and factors that influence any territorial organisation. With regard to general principles, the author differentiates between the principles of the territorial basis of the whole local self-government system and the principles related to the determination of the territory of individual local self-government units, i.e., parts of local self-government system. The principles related to the whole local self-government system are coverage, stability, rationality, and organisational adequacy of the territorial division, while the principles on which the territory of local self-government units should be based are the wholeness of a self-government unit, uniformity of local selfgovernment units, financial capacity and independence, democratic quality of local governance, and accessibility of local services. Each principle has been analysed with regard to its limitations and problems concerning its implementation. The author points out contradictory implications that may arise from the implementation of certain principles related to territorial determination of local self-government units. The second component of the analytical framework deals with objective conditions and subjective factors that determine and influence territorial organisation. These conditions and factors have been grouped and systematised into eight groups according to the degree of their invariance: natural characteristics of the territory; network and types of settlements; population characteristics; administrative-territorial tradition; level of economic development; transport and communication networks; efficiency and effectiveness of local services; and political aims and interests. The validity of analytical tools has been corroborated by the examples from comparative local self-government. The second part of the analytical framework containing the main problems of any territorial division to local self-government units and their possible solutions is forthcoming.

In der politikwissenschaftlichen Föderalismusforschung spielt die Frage nach der Bedeutung und den Auswirkungen von territorialer Herrschaftsorganisation eine zentrale Rolle. Diese Fragestellung kann weiter in die Analyse der Auswirkungen von territorialer Herrschaft für die Demokratiequalität sowie den Effekten hinsichtlich der makroökonomischen Performanz von politischen Systemen unterteilt werden. In dieser Arbeit steht der letztgenannte Aspekt im Vordergrund: Ich stelle die Behauptung auf, dass für die Untersuchung der Auswirkungen von territorialer Herrschaftsorganisation zwischen den Entscheidungskompetenzen (Föderalismus) und den Implementierungskompetenzen (Dezentralisierung) unterschieden werden muss. Ich entwickele daher eine theoretische Argumentation, mit der die Effekte von unterschiedlichen Kompetenzverteilungen auf der zentralen und der subnationalen Ebene erfasst werden. Die einzelnen theoretischen Argumente werden dann anhand einer quantitativen Analyse für die OECD-Staaten getestet. Dabei ergibt sich eine eindeutige Bestätigung für die vorgeschlagene Abgrenzung von Entscheidungs- und Implementierungskompetenzen. Darüber hinaus macht die Arbeit deutlich, dass neben der Analyse von makroökonomischen Performanzeffekten die Untersuchung einzelner Politikfelder verstärkt in den Blickpunkt der Forschung rücken sollte. Abschließend gebe ich daher einen Ausblick, wie aufbauend auf den Befunden dieser Arbeit weitere Erkenntnisse zu den Auswirkungen territorialer Herrschaft gewonnen werden können.

Cette recherche, positionnée en sciences de gestion, s'appuie sur une démarche exploratoire hybride. Au regard de l'expérience du territoire du Pays d'Aix dans le portage d'un projet de territoire – le développement et la structuration d'une filière musiques actuelles locale – il est proposé ici un modèle intégrateur du leadership territorial . Ce dernier s'articule autour de trois dimensions (être au service des parties prenantes territoriales, être un transformateur local, être un leader collaboratif), interdépendantes, permettant de questionner les rôles et missions des organisations publiques dans la mise en œuvre de projets de territoire. Remarques à l'intention des praticiens Cette recherche vise à questionner la capacité d'une collectivité territoriale à s'emparer d'un leadership sur son territoire d'action. La construction théorique menée ainsi que ses implications managériales sont destinées à la fois aux élus locaux et aux managers territoriaux. Elles peuvent, indirectement, intéresser également les différentes parties prenantes territoriales qui verront là des éléments clés de compréhension des collectivités territoriales. Le leadership territorial est un processus qui se construit autour de différentes dimensions, interdépendantes et s'appuie sur des projets de territoire.

The OECD Territorial Review of the Chicago Tri-State metropolitan area, the first of its kind conducted by the OECD in the United States, assesses the region?s capacity to contribute effectively to regional and national economic performance and quality of life. The Review focuses on four thematic policy issues: i) the effectiveness and coordination of workforce development programmes in the Chicago Tri-State metro-region; ii) the metro-region?s capacity for innovation; iii) its role as a major centre for logistics in North America; and (iv) its capacity to encourage green growth over the long
