Abstract

The system of national states as territorially organized polities remains the core of the political order, but their configuration becomes more complex, the forms and mechanisms, principles and results of interaction between territorial political units of different levels are changing. In this context, scholars focus on such phenomena as multi-level governance (MLG) and regionalism that is one of the most important factors influencing the depth of political transformations and the degree of development of MLG. Despite the large amount of studies on different issues, the relationship between regionalism and multi-level governance needs more systematic research, specifically large-N comparative studies. For the purpose of carrying out this kind of studies, the Database «Subnational Regionalism and Multi-Level Governance (REG-MLG)» has been created. This article describes the general characteristics and structure of the REG-MLG, demonstrates its differences from other databases and datasets, and presents some examples of large-N comparative studies carried out on the basis of the REG-MLG.
