Autonomia differenziata come processo dal basso: i referendum regionali in prospettiva comparata

Abstract

In questo contributo i referendum per l’autonomia di Lombardia e Veneto vengono analizzati con riferimento a consultazioni che hanno portato alla differenziazione delle strutture di governance territoriale in altri paesi. I motivi politici alla base dei due referendum sono poi collegati agli sviluppi degli ultimi due anni. L’articolo sottolinea la presenza di una tensione territoriale esistente non soltanto fra i maggiori partiti italiani, ma anche al loro interno. Il tema del regionalismo differenziato infatti viene interpretato diversamente dai leader politici regionali e nazionali. Questa contraddizione non risparmia nessun partito, neanche la Lega, la cui nuova strategia “nazionale” appare meno compatibile con le domande di autonomia provenienti dalle sue tradizionali zone di insediamento. In un contesto in cui la dimensione politica regionale è sempre più scollegata da quella nazionale, il destino del regionalismo differenziato appare dunque alquanto incerto. In this contribution the autonomy referendums held in Lombardy and Veneto in 2017 are analysed and compared to similar experiences in other countries, which have led to the differentiation of territorial governance structures. The political motivations under-pinning the two referendums are linked to developments of the last two years. The arti-cle underlines the existence of a territorial tension not only between the main Italian political parties, but also within them. Indeed, the issue of differentiated regionalism is interpreted in different ways by regional and national political leaders. This contradic-tion affects all parties, including the League, as its new “national” strategy seems to be less compatible with the demands for more autonomy coming from its traditional strongholds. Therefore, in a context in which the regional political dimension is increas-ingly disconnected from the national one, the future of differentiated regionalism ap-pears to be uncertain.
