摘要：SOLVIT represents a network for informal problem resolution in the EU, based on correspondent nodes in each national administration. SOLVIT was initially introduced into the European arena as an alternative to the formal ways (i.e. mudicial recourse) of solving cross-border problems related to the four freedoms. The network’s performance is affected by many factors: experience, political support, information campaigns etc. One key-issue, i.e. where to place the SOLVIT coordination unit in each EU member state, was left to the national authorities to decide. Various institutional solutions have emerged, according to each country’s characteristics of administrative culture. Some are more efficient than others. By developing a model in which variables such as centralization quotients or speed in solving cases are introduced, the authors aim to discover if the specific positioning of the national centers (nodes) in the SOLVIT network – as well as a potential move of a node upper/lower on the administrative hierarchy – may leverage on the network’s overall performance.
