Ne wo k building is a ne e - alling adap a ion s a egy among ins i u ions. Since he inancial esou ces om

Danish and a Hunga ian one.
In oduc ion
Ne wo k building is a well known adap a ion p ocess among ins i u ions and in he quickly changing globalised
wo d i can be impo an o de elopmen o ganisa ions o hink in ne wo ks (Halkie – Sagan 2005), mainly
because wi hin he EU inancial esou ces a e less and less amoun and can be a ailable unde s ic e condi ions
(EC 2004). So building up ins i u ional ne wo ks can be a p econdi ion o using enough inancial esou ces
om he EU budge o de elopmen easons.
In he case s udies below he Danish case o de elopmen ins i u ional ne wo k is analysed i s . Some imes he
Danish poli icians said ha he e we e oo many o ganisa ions in ol ed in he de elopmen policy a ea (see
Gje ding 2005a and Halkie – Dambo g 2000). The o ganisa ions wo k in such an amoun ha hey dis u bed

domain and e i o y. And his la ge numbe could cause con usion among he ac o s o he p i a e sec o . So
he ques ion is a ising: a e he e oo many o ganisa ions on his ield? In Hunga y a s udy showed ha
some imes he e ec o an addi ional membe o a ne wo k can be nega i e (Pálné 2006). So wha eally
impo an is he clea compe encies o hese membe s in he ne wo k.
The pape is abou egional de elopmen ins i u ions and how hey build up he e ne wo ks among each o he .
One o he case s udy egions is No jylland (o No h Ju land) om he no he n pa o Denma k; he o he is
he No h G ea Plain Region o Észak-al öldi Region om Hunga y.

The esea ch in oduced below had some ea lie p elimina ies. I was p eceded by an EU p ojec (ADAPT
2003), ca ied ou in he amewo k o ADAPT 5, a hema ic pa ial esea ch en i led “Go e nance, ci izenship

esea che s

Sou h T ansdanubian Region o examine he de elopmen o mul ile el go e nance in egional poli ics (Pálné e

ques ionnai e g ea ly con ibu ed o and sped up wo k aimed a scanning he sys em o mul ile el go e nance in
he No h egion o he G ea Plain.
The esea ch me hod was compa a i e analysis o public policies. Some quan i a i e and quali a i e analysis o

The wo case s udy egions a e No jylland om he no he n pa o Denma k, and he No h G ea Plain Region
o Észak-al öldi Region om Hunga y. The eason o choosing hese wo egions was ha in bo h cases, he e

sel -go e nmen sys em o he coun y. This happened in Denma k and in Hunga y as well.
In he case o Denma k in Oc obe 2002, he cu en libe al go e nmen o med a commission ha was o
