Le Transfert du Modèle Européen Leader entre Diffusion des Normes et Durcissement Réglementaire
The LEADER Program, introduced in 1991 as part of EU rural development policy, is a mainstay for local action in Europe. Based on local partnerships bringing together entrepreneurs, elected representatives and associations on a voluntary basis, it exemplifies the principles of cooperation and subsidiarity, and thus helps strengthen local democracy. Researchers and development practitioners agree on its innovativeness and potential for “transferability”, since each member state enjoys a degree of freedom in applying it. Not only may each EU country arrange the program’s objectives in line with its own priorities, it also has wide room for using the financial means granted to it and determining how to implement the program. This article focuses on the conditions for transferring the Leader approach (2007-2013) to all 27 EU member states. How have the latter interpreted and transposed this European model? Do the regulations for forming “project territories” and drawing up local development strategies lead to practices in compliance with the view that the EU is trying to promote?
