Abstract

This paper discusses various ways to organize these consultations, so that a compromise agreement is reached on the solution of the (re)distribution problem. These institutionalized structures of consultation are referred to as 'matching zones' here. Practical experiences, mainly from the Netherlands, provide guidelines for the effective institutional setup of such 'matching zones'. Specifically, the design of a 'matching zone' should try to adhere to the following principles: there should be a common interest and ample incentives for consensus; there should be the prospect of long, repeated interaction; there should be a balance between representation and efficiency; the constraints should be clear from the onset of the matching zone; fairness should be strived for; IC technology should be utilized optimally; and informal contacts and an amicable atmosphere should be promoted.
