The voting containers of a territory are merely one typology, often not matching the numerous functions within the other typologies. Under the assumption that voting containers are politically fixed, governance that adapts to the dynamics of territorial rescaling is required. This paper explores the relationship between territorial rescaling and polycentric governance in Albania. It concludes that polycentric governance can enable cooperation and efficiency throughout rescaling, assuming some conditions are in place for addressing the polycentricity gap.</p>}, number={2}, journal={European Spatial Research and Policy}, author={Shutina, Dritan and Toto, Rudina}, year={2021}, month={Dec.}, pages={103–129} }
