Abstract
This article describes the new geography of municipalities in Italy with particular reference to the recent and increasingly more frequent inter-municipal mergers. Furthermore, considering the main tools identified by law for the associated management of the fundamental municipal functions, the authors analyse the distribution and characterization of municipal unions and conventions, focusing on municipalities up to 5,000 inhabitants.
