La tesi sostenuta è che l’adozione di un approccio burocratico-formale o di tipo ingegneristico nel ricorso ai meccanismi di P&C tende a generare effetti indesiderati. Con l’intento di delineare le logiche sottostanti alla progettazione dei sistemi in oggetto nell’azienda “Regione”, si evidenzia dapprima il concetto di sistema di P&C accolto nel presente scritto, e – in funzione di questo – si analizzano talune fisiologie e patologie riscontrate, specialmente in relazione alle esperienze sviluppate dall’autore nella Regione Sicilia.
This paper is focused on methodological and critical issues related to the design of planning and control (P&C) systems in Public Regional Governments. The thesis of the author is that the use of a formal/bureaucratic approach, or even an engineered/structured perspective, in P&C systems design may involve negative unintended consequences. The concept of P&C system is fi rstly focused, in order to outline some basic steps to follow for its implementation in Regional Public Administrations. A number of physiologies and pathologies detected by the author in the Region of Sicily are then analysed and debated.
