Final report on updating the Regional Authority Index (RAI) for forty-five countries (2010-2016)

This is the final report of the project entitled "Updating, improving and expanding the Regional Authority Index for 43 democracies 1950-2016." The project was funded by the European Commission (tender: 2016.CE.16.BAT.079). This report discusses the main results of the project and presents country profiles updates for forty-five countries. These profiles discuss reforms since 2010 that have affected regions and regional tiers. Two datasets accompany this final report: one with scores at the country level, and one with scores at the regional level.
