Abstract

Governance has been widely discussed by scholars since the nineties in the different but related fields of politics, public administration and European studies. Research and theorizing of governance has resulted in a complex, diverse and at times bewildering array of writing. Governance has been written about as a new approach by the modern state (Kickert et al. 1997). In contrast, it has also been analysed as governance without government (Peters and Pierre 1998). It has been studied in relation to regimes, law, rules, judicial decisions and administrative practices (Lynn et al. 2001). Then again, it has been studied in relation to non-state actors and policy entrepreneurs building networks (Klijn 2005; Kooiman 2005). One influential view suggested that there are a number of approaches to the concept of governance in the study of public administration, including the study of: (1) inter-jurisdictional governance, (2) extending state function by exporting it to third parties (profit or non-profit), and finally (3) non-state governance in accounting for NGO activities (Frederickson 2005).

Two metrics check the validity of the analysis: the pertinence index giving the per cent of unities that have been classified. The Khi2 index calculates a measure of distance between co-occurring terms allowing regrouping them into a class and by extension the membership to a class.

As for example factorial analysis, ascending and descending classifications, cross sort and so on.

This a strength of qualitative factorial analysis compared to quantitative one to allow the representation on the same graph of variables (key words) and variables modalities (countries).

See Appendix A for the characteristics of tools of Alceste© software.

Countries do not always belong to a single group. That means that they are less focused and cover several orientations. This is the case of Italy, Lithuania, Romania, Finland, Belgium, Malta.

Conditionality refers to the rules for application.

A pertinence index of 84 per cent means that 84 per cent of the textual units have been classified. This should be considered as a pertinence test for the representation of themes in the text. A pertinence index over 70 per cent is generally considered as a reliable result.

See Appendix B for details on the tool.

See Appendix A for a presentation of the different graphs types.

A high Kchi2 means that the word is closed to the class orientation meaning that it determines the sense of the class.

As a European official told us to explain that Europe 2020 was in a certain sense demonetized, not in the mood anymore after the definition of the ten priorities of President Juncker.

As declared by one EU official in an informal discussion.
