Multilevel governance • Gary Marks and Liesbet Hooghe, “European Integration from the 1980 s: State-Centric v. Multi-level Governance”, Journal of Common Market Studies, 1996. • Multi-level governance can be defined as an arrangement for making binding decisions that engages a multiplicity of politically independent but otherwise interdependent actors – private and public – at different levels of territorial aggregation in more-or-less continuous negotiation/deliberation/implementation, and that does not assign exclusive policy competence or assert a stable hierarchy of political authority to any of these levels • (Schmitter 2004).
