Abstract
This chapter discusses similarities and differences in agencification processes in the so-called Latin countries: Belgium, France, Italy, Portugal and Spain. This suggests that there is a homogeneous phenomenon of agencification with shared meaning among scholars and that a group of countries can be grouped under the ‘Latin’ label in an unproblematic way.
