【 摘 要 】

Some 53 cities, 3 state governments and 2 Regional Associations—the Ruhrgebiet’s unique administrative fragmentation has increasingly come under scrutiny, as cost pressure is mounting in public administration. Both in the political and the economic sphere, there are numerous proposals to overcome this situation. Some observers advocate the identification of some selected cities to be supported as regional centers, while other proposals even envisage one big “Ruhr-City”. Based on theoretical cooperation concepts, a socio-economic review and the analyses of chosen cooperation projects, we suggest concentrating on cooperation along functional lines, initiated on a case-by-case basis. To overcome the status quo of reluctant cooperation, the right set of incentives will be needed. Specifically, we propose designing a competition offering potential cooperation partners substantial monetary benefits, if their proposal is picked as a winner.
