Abstract
Many municiparities in prefectural border in the regional sphere have became ghost town and declined regional vitality. Therefore, 'regional linkages' among municiparities in prefectural border are drawing the attention. This study aims to show the method for regional linkages.
Necessary elements for regional linkages and its interrelation are grasped by questionnaire toward municiparities in prefectural border. And by DEMATEL (Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory), the method for regional linkages is showed in terms of a structure of municipal consciousness.
