The theme of innovation for development is analyzed here by focusing on the institutional and government dimensions of "vast area". In relation to the European regions, the contribution focuses, first, on the relationship between the institutional reforms activated in some EU countries (to reduce the administrative fragmentation of small municipalities) and regional competitiveness, measured by the Regional Competitiveness Index (RCI). Second, the focus is on the strategic role of the government of the "vast area" that are second level institutions, characterized by the presence of a democratic deficit. It is suggested that, in this context, an innovative solution to solve the legitimacy gap can be given by the public participation practices.
Keywords: Institutional Reform, Regional Competitiveness, Public Participation
