Summary/Abstract: Cross-border cooperation of decentralized units can represent a tool for improving their functioning, especially in the border area. It appears as a certain supplement to the decentralized management system, primarily in the function of balanced development. The right to cross-border cooperation presents a standard in the institutionalization of local authorities, and therefore of higher territorial communities too. However, its framework is relatively narrow, subjected to national constraints. The process of European integration represents the most important driving force for its establishment. Sometimes the sole motive and goal of crossborder cooperation is the use of EU funds earmarked for these purposes.
