Intergovernmental coordination is a defining feature of multi-level governance. Indeed, the ability of different levels of government to cooperate effectively has profound implications for law, policy, and the everyday lives of citizens. In moments of stability, coordination guarantees consistency and legitimacy; in times of crisis, it becomes a lifeline.
This issue of Ars æqui is devoted to the study of intergovernmental coordination, bringing together contributions from COST Action 20123 IGCOORD, which has provided a unique platform for comparative scholarship in this field.
