Relationships between the public and private sectors in the strategic process of the NRRP : a state of the art on interest representation and future perspectives

The National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is Italy's strategic response to the economic and health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This essay provides an overview of the existing literature on theories on the strategic public policy process and the role of interest representation in policy formulation and the NRRP. Through an analysis of the main theories and context of the NRRP, the essay highlights the complex dynamics that characterize the interaction between public and private actors. In addition, the main implications of lobbying and its effects on public policy and public administration are analyzed. The essay's conclusions summarize the main concepts of the work and pave the way for future research that could systematically analyze external influences on the Plan and investigate whether or not a specific law on interest representation is needed in Italy.

The work can contribute to building a specific theoretical valuable framework for future studies concerning interest representation in the formulation phase of the NRRP. [Publisher's Text].
