Abstract
The recent economic and fiscal crises provide an opportunity for learning lessons of general and practical relevance into how governments face shocks affecting their financial conditions. This article draws on the resilience concept to investigate the organizational capacities that are deployed and/or built by local governments (LGs) to respond to such shocks, looking at their combinations and interactions with environmental conditions. The paper presents the results of a multiple-case analysis of 12 European LGs across Austria, Italy and England. The analysis allows to highlight and operationalize different patterns of financial resilience, i.e. self-regulation, constrained or reactive adaptation, contented or powerless fatalism, that are the result of the interaction and development over time of different internal and external dimensions.
