It includes three aspects: social, economic and environmental, though, in real circunstances, frecuently Local Agenda 21 is identified with environmental policies because the own Departments of Environment have exclusive powers on this issue. Thus, in this paper, we try to demonstrate, by the use of Multivariate Analysis, more concretely, of the Correspondence Analysis, how the patterns of environmental expenditure is related to the greater or smaller impulse than the Autonomous Communities is giving to the Local Agenda 21.
