Territorial diplomacy and cross-border cooperation: the case of France’s border

"The study of developments since the 1980s raises questions about the role and place of territorial authorities in an international system involving diverse players, and prompts a rethinking, by means of infra-State players, of the historical roles of diplomacy: representing and negotiating." The article ["Diplomatie territoriale et coopération transfrontalière : Le cas des frontières françaises"] analyses this diplomacy in the cross-border context along France’s borders."

Article by Jean Peyrony, Director-General of the MOT, published in: "La diplomatie des collectivités territoriales des années 1980 à nos jours" [The diplomacy of territorial authorities from the 1980s to the present day], Editors Birte Wassenberg and Marion Aballéa, L'Harmattan, collection Cahiers de Fare, No. 17, 2019, pp. 75-102.
