LAW SCHOOL – MADRID, SPAIN JULY

In a little more than a decade, the set of public financial rules has reached a significant extension, fueled by the directly proportional relationship between the extent of the financial crises and the interventions of the EU and national regulatory powers. In particular, the 2008 global crisis and the recent crisis related to the Covid-19 pandemic (crisis aggravated by the outbreak of war in Ukraine in 2022) have had relevant impacts on the size of public spending and debt and have triggered the production of new financial rules, mainly defined by the European Union (just to mention an example, see the rules of the "Recovery and Resilience Facility").

The main objective of the Panel is to analyze how the growing increase of public finance law affected – and currently affects –the configuration of contemporary administrative systems, by shaping their characteristics on the basis of technical needs (included the principle of “financial sustainability”), not always representative of general public interests. The ultimate goal is to understand whether such a “modeling ability" has resulted in a capacity of improving the administrative system or, on the contrary, has produced negative and dysfunctional effects.

The topic is connected to the “FinPA project”, financed by the Next Generation EU program and the Italian government (Prin call 2022), and carried out by a research group made up of scholars from some Italian Universities.
