    A European Perspective on Inter-Communal Co-operation in France: Territorial Reform Remains Incomplete — This article sheds light on the specific characteristics of French inter-communal co-operation as it has developed over the past 20 years. Through a comparison of structures at municipal level in France with such structures in other European countries and a discussion of the surge of inter-municipal co-operation, the article demonstrates how the current situation is the result of a failed attempt to implement complete territorial reform. Despite of the benefits of increased inter-communal co-operation, this failure has nevertheless had a pernicious effect on the current functioning French municipalities as a whole
