Territories are increasingly called upon to address contemporary challenges and needs with targeted investments and integrated approaches to territorial development. Among the various European implementation tools made available, the leader/ clld approach is the most present in rural territories and offers untapped potential that needs to be focused on. This contribution offers a reflection on the main operations linked to local and rural development on Italian territory, raising the question of how these are only treated from the point of view of working agendas and how the political and institutional implications they bring are neglected or poorly investigated. In this sense, the ‘local action groups’ seem to carry out a silent (and incomplete) revolution.
