<p>Το άρθρο εξετάζει την προσέγγιση της ΕΕ στην αντιμετώπιση του κοινωνικού αποκλεισμού σε αστικές περιοχές. Εστιάζει στη μουσουλμανική μειονότητα της Κομοτηνής και στην προσπάθεια δημιουργίας τοπικών διακυβερνητικών δομών με στόχο την αντιμετώπιση του αποκλεισμού μέσω της στήριξης της συμμετοχικότητας στη λήψη των αποφάσεων. Η έννοια των «δικαιωμάτων», που καθόρισε τις πολιτικές παρέμβασης, ανέδειξε την ένταση των διακρίσεων σε βάρος της μειονότητας. Παράλληλα, η ανισότητα των σχέσεων εξουσίας ανάμεσα στους διακυβερνητικούς εταίρους, περιόρισε τις προοπτικές «ενδυνάμωσης» του μειονοτικού πληθυσμού. Αντλώντας από το διάλογο για τη στάση των πιο ευάλωτων φορέων σε διακυβερνητικές μορφές παρέμβασης, το άρθρο διαλέγεται με τις μειονοτικές επιλογές της συμμετοχής και της διεκδικητικής αντιπαράθεσης.</p>

Whilst there is ample literature on the governance and management of partnerships in welfare, particularly within mixed-economy states, much of it has focused on the governance and organisational capacity issues. This paper draws on that body of literature and evidence from health and social care partnerships, and attempts to develop the theoretical and empirical work in the area to address the issue of citizens' social rights, asking whether collaborative governance and partnerships between agencies are the solution to promoting citizens' social participation, or another state-driven method of indirectly enhancing social exclusion.

Territorial Organization

Collaborative territorial governance experiences play a fundamental role in improving public management to mitigate health and the economic crisis impacts due to COVID-19 pandemic. The Ministry of Interior (SEGOB, in Spanish) of the Mexican federal government implemented the methodology Neighborhoods Networks for Solidarity Support “Redes Vecinales de Apoyo Solidario” (REVES, in Spanish). It is a territorial organization system based on community co-responsibility that aims to improve the satisfaction of basic needs derived from the health and economic emergency caused by COVID-19, and is an example for municipalities throughout Mexico. REDES implies a collaborative territorial governance system. In this article we describe and analyze the actions carried out by seven municipalities that are executing the project.

Input Legitimacy

Abstract Participants may lose faith in collaborative governance processes if they do not perceive internal decision-making processes to be legitimate. Yet, understanding how to assess internal legitimacy and what network characteristics are associated with it has been an enduring challenge. In this article, we propose conceptualizing internal legitimacy as multi-vectored, contrasting input legitimacy—the degree of openness and access that participants experience in their attempt to offer voice—with throughput legitimacy—the quality of the decision-making process itself. Using data from a comparative case study of 18 different US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)-mandated Continuums of Care, we assess this framework with a mixed-methods approach, combining thematic analysis of interview data (n = 145) with Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA) to show (1) differences in how participants experience input and throughput legitimacy, (2) the nature of the relationship between input and throughput legitimacy, and (3) what specific network characteristics are associated with positive assessments of each. Our findings indicate that input and throughput legitimacy are distinct but related—throughput legitimacy is harder to achieve and dependent on positive assessments of input legitimacy. Some network characteristics, particularly large size and commissioner-style network management, pose challenges, but a focus on in-person engagement can help ameliorate them. We conclude that distinguishing between input and throughput legitimacy can help managers identify where and how to intervene in order to improve the legitimacy of decision-making processes in collaborative governance networks.

The Impact

This report concerns the activities developed by the Mental Health and Social Exclusion (MHSE) Network, an initiative supported by the Mental Health Europe (World Federation of Mental Health). We report some data from the preliminary survey done in five capital cities of the European Union (Madrid, Copenhagen, Brussels, Lisbon, and Rome). The main aim of this survey was to investigate, from a mostly qualitative point of view, the causal and supportive factors implicated in the situation of the homeless mentally ill in Europe. The results point out the familial and childhood roots of homelessness, the perceived causes of the situation, the relationships with the support services, and the expectations of future of the homeless mentally ill. The analysis of results has helped to identify the different variables implicated in the social rupture process that influences homelessness in major European cities. The results were used as the basis for the design of a more ambitious current research project about the impact of the medical and psychosocial interventions in the homeless. This project is being developed in 10 capital cities of the European Union with a focus on the program and outcome evaluation of the health and psychosocial services for the disadvantaged.
