The Sardinian regional operational program 2007-2013 concerning the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) (2007-2013 ROP-ERDF) respects the rules of the ERDF on the investments for territorial cohesion since it promotes their regional geographic concentration. These investments are evenly shared between large- and medium-size urban areas, and disadvantaged zones, as defined above. This paper analyzes the investment policies implemented by the Sardinian Region through the 2000-2006 ERDF-based part of the Regional Operational Programme (2000-2006 ROP-ERDF), in order to assess their effectiveness, in terms of expense efficiency, for urban areas and disadvantaged zones. The assessment of the expenditure efficiency of the 2000-2006 ROP-ERDF is very important to address the policies of the 2007-2013 ROP-ERDF in terms of geographic concentration. This essay develops a territorial taxonomy of the Sardinian cities based on the expenditure efficiency through a data mining technique, the Rough-Set Analysis (RSA). The essay proposes an analytical and interpretive approach which could be easily exported in other public planning processes, in order to define policies for territorial cohesion.

Abstract
The Sardinian regional operational program 2007-2013 concerning the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) (2007-2013 ROP-ERDF) respects the rules of the ERDF on the investments for territorial cohesion since it promotes their regional geographic concentration. These investments are evenly shared between large- and medium-size urban areas, and disadvantaged zones, as defined above. This paper analyzes the investment policies implemented by the Sardinian Region through the 2000-2006 ERDF-based part of the Regional Operational Programme (2000-2006 ROP-ERDF), in order to assess their effectiveness, in terms of expense efficiency, for urban areas and disadvantaged zones. The assessment of the expenditure efficiency of the 2000-2006 ROP-ERDF is very important to address the policies of the 2007-2013 ROP-ERDF in terms of geographic concentration. This essay develops a territorial taxonomy of the Sardinian cities based on the expenditure efficiency through a data mining technique, the Rough-Set Analysis (RSA). The essay proposes an analytical and interpretive approach which could be easily exported in other public planning processes, in order to define policies for territorial cohesion.
