Il potere sostitutivo dello Stato di fronte alla “crisi dell’autonomia”. Nota alla sentenza della Corte costituzionale n. 168/2021 sul piano di rientro sanitario della Regione Calabria

The article comments the decision of the Italian Constitutional Court no. 168 of 2021, concerning the "recovery plan" (“piano di riqualificazione e rientro”) of the Regional Healthcare Service of Calabria Region. The authors, criticizing some argumentative options adopted by the Court, focus in particular on three profiles of interest emerging from the decision, which: a) it is a new milestone along the difficult reorganization of the Regional Healthcare Service of Calabria Region; b) it seems to be a prelude to the development of a more rigorous judicial review of the legislation relating to "recovery plans" and of the contents of these acts themselves; c) it offers a framework of the substitute powers of the State within the constitutional system and a vision of regional autonomy which can pay attention because of to the novelty of some statements concerning the "potential value" of autonomy and the need for its "real testing".
