Itaalia provintsid

In Italy, a province (provincia) is an administrative division of intermediate level between a municipality (comune) and a region (regione).

[edit]
In this map regions have different colors and are divided into provinces.

A province is composed of many municipalities (comune), and usually several provinces form a region. The region of Aosta Valley is the only exception being the province coincident with the region.

The three main functions devolved to provinces are:

  • Local planning and zoning
  • Provision of local police and fire services.
  • Transportation regulation (car registration, maintenance of local roads, etc.)

There are 110 provinces in Italy.[1] Lombardy has the most provinces, with 12. The number of provinces in Italy has been steadily growing in recent years, as many new ones are carved out of older ones.

Each province is headed by a President assisted by a legislative body, the Provincial Council, and an executive body, the Provincial Executive. President and members of Council are elected together by resident citizens: the coalition of the elected President (who needs an absolute majority in the first or second round of voting) gains the three fifths of the Council's seats. The Executive is chaired by the President who appoint others members, called assessori.

In each province there is also a Prefect (prefetto), a representative of central government who heads an agency called prefettura-ufficio territoriale del governo. The Questor (questore) is the head of State's Police (Polizia di Stato) in the province and his office is called questura. There is also a province's police force depending from local government, called provincial police (polizia provinciale).

The South Tyrol and Trentino are autonomous provinces: unlike all other provinces they have the same legislative powers of regions and are not subordinated to the region they are part of, namely the region of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol.

Number of provinces in Italy since 1861

In 1861, at the birth of the Kingdom of Italy, there were 59 provinces. However, at that time the national territory was smaller than the current one: regions of Veneto, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Trentino Alto Adige and Lazio were not included in the kingdom.

In 1866, following the Third Independence War, territories of Veneto, Friuli and Mantova were annexed. There were therefore 9 provinces more: Belluno, Mantova, Padova, Rovigo, Treviso, Venezia, Verona, Vicenza and Udine, all previously part of the Austrian Empire. Eventually, in 1870, following the annexion of Rooma and its province from the Papal States, provinces rose to 69.

After World War I, new territories were annexed to the country. Trento provints was created in 1920. Provinces of La Spezia, Trieste and Ionio in 1923. In 1924 the new provinces of Fiume, di Pola and Zara were created, rising the total number of provinces in Italy to 76.

Between the two World Wars

[edit]

In 1927, following a Royal charter,[Note 4] a general province rearrangement took place. 17 new provinces were created (Aosta, Vercelli, Varese, Savona, Bolzano, Gorizia, Pistoia, Pescara, Rieti, Terni, Viterbo, Frosinone, Brindisi, Matera, Ragusa, Castrogiovanni, Nuoro) and the province of Caserta was suppressed. In the same year the institution of circondari, sub-provincial wards created before the unification, was abolished.

Province of Littoria (Latina) was created in 1934 and the Province of Asti in 1935. Following the annexion of Yugoslavia in 1941, the province of Zara joins the Governatorate of Dalmatia (comprising the province of Zara, Spalato e Cattaro), while in the occupied central part of today's Slovenia was created the new Province of Lubiana.

In 1945, after the War, the province of Aosta changed name to Valle d'Aosta and Littoria to Latina; the new province of Caserta was created. With the Paris Treaties, signed on 10 February 1947, Italy lost the provinces of Istria, Carnaro and Dalmazia and part of provinces of Trieste and Gorizia. Moreover, the province of Trieste was occupied by United States and Great Britain forces. The Italian Republic had therefore 91 provinces at its birth.

Province of Ionio was renamed in Taranto in 1951, and, in 1954, the province of Trieste was returned to Italy.

Recent history

[edit]

The Province of Pordenone was founded in 1968, the province of Isernia in 1970 and the Province of Oristano in 1974. In 1992 a total of 8 provinces were created: Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, Biella, Lecco, Lodi, Rimini, Prato, Crotone, Vibo Valentia, while Forlì was renamed Forlì-Cesena.

Four new provinces were founded in Sardinia in 2001, which went effective in 2005: Olbia-Tempio, Ogliastra, Medio Campidano e Carbonia-Iglesias; in 2004 other 3 provinces were created: Monza e Brianza, Fermo andBarletta-Andria-Trani, for a total of 110 provinces.

[edit]

Controversies

[edit]

Provinces are often deemed useless, and many proposes have been made in recent years to eliminate them.[3][4][5] However, the difficulty of changing a constitutional law and the opposition of some groups and politicians halted any reform proposal.[6][7]
