Meta-governance and developing integrated territorial strategies: The case study of MIRT territorial agendas in the Randstad (Netherlands)

This paper considers the role of meta-governance in developing integrative territorial strategies at the regional level, drawing evidence from the Randstad (the Netherlands). We look at three cases of regional strategy-making within the context of a long-term national government investment programme on infrastructure and territorial development called MIRT. In terms of findings, we observe that the MIRT programme has created an institutional context which enables governmental stakeholders to effectively deal with the fragmented governance situation in their part of the Randstad. The findings fuel further reflection on the possible role of meta-governance in regional integrated strategy-making.
