摘要:AbstractThe aim of this paper is to analyze the application of Public Private Partnership (PPP) in Italy. The paper would like to study weakness and strength of these partnerships. This is a descriptive paper based on secondary data. The research defines and describes the importance of PPPs in a period of financial difficulties for national and local governments, with a special focus on Italy experiences. Partnership between public and private haven’t a large diffusion in Italy and don’t concern big or national structure but local structure like cemeteries, local stadium for swimming competition, and little harbor for private ships. PPPs in Italy context require important reflections because there isn’t a high level of collaboration between private and public actors, for many reasons. For example, one of the main causes is represented by a very low level of preparation of local offices and the consequent difficulties of public local actor to manage the partnership.
