    Peut-on justifier la suppression des départements français ? Une revue de la litterature
    in Revue française d'administration publique , 2015/2 (N° 154) ,  2015 ,  505 - 522
    The aim of this contribution is to review the main arguments justifying an eventual suppression of departments as local collectivities. The paper first critically analyses the reasons in favor of maintaining the departments. It then examines the simplification procedures proposed such as the increased municipalities’ autonomy, the harmonization of the departments’ legal statutes and prerogatives and finally the safeguard of the financial backing for the exercice of the departments’ social competencies.
