The Faroe Islands are administratively divided in 29 municipalities (kommunur), with about 120 cities and villages. Until December 31, 2008, there were 34 municipalities, and until December 31, 2004, there were 48 municipalities. In the coming years the number of Faroese municipalities is expected to drop to somewhere between 7 and 15, as there is currently a rationale towards municipal amalgamation and a decentralization of public services. In 1998 it was suggested that no municipality should have fewer than 2,000 inhabitants, but whether this will be true is a political question. The Faroese government has furthermore decided not to conduct forced, top-down amalgamation, but to leave the process to the free will of the municipalities. In many small municipalities there is some resistance

  • Dans les îles Féroé, la commune (kommuna en féroïen, kommunur au pluriel) est une subdivision territoriale. (fr)
  • Färöarnas kommuner är den minsta administrativa indelningen på Färöarna och ögruppen indelas i 30 administrativa områden, kommuner (kommunur). Kommunerna har tillsammans cirka 120 orter. Fram till 2005 fanns det 48 kommuner, och man räknar med att siffran kommer sjunka till mellan 7 och 15 kommuner inom de kommande åren. Detta eftersom en ökande trend med centralisering av sociala tjänster samt kommunsammanslagningar. Detta går också i led med demografin då folk i ökande grad flyttar till de större orterna, framför allt huvudstadsområdet Tórshavn. Kommunerna har som grundläggande ansvar att erbjuda grundskola, förskola, primärvård, och liknande. Kommunerna väljer dock allt oftare att samarbeta om detta med grannkommunerna. (sv)

  • Le Fær Øer sono suddivise dal punto di vista amministrativo in 29 comuni comprendenti circa 120 città e villaggi. Dal 1977 a oggi il numero di comuni delle isole è sempre diminuito. La contrazione numerica è il risultato di un processo di transizione dalla suddivisione amministrativa di tipo parrocchiale elaborata nella prima metà del XX secolo e che aveva portato alla creazione di circa 50 comuni ad una suddivisione grossomodo coincidente con quella tradizionale su base regionale e circoscrizionale.Questo processo, ancora in corso si svolge tramite l'accorpamento dei comuni e la decentralizzazione dei servizi pubblici, e ha subito un'accelerazione nel 1998 quando il governo definì un limite minimo per la popolazione di un comune pari a 2.000 abitanti che avrebbe comportato la soppressione (it)
  • Wyspy Owcze liczą obecnie 30 gmin (far. komunen). Każda z nich jest najniższą jednostką administracyjną na archipelagu. Obszarem położonym wyżej w hierarchii jest region, których jest tam sześć. Parlament Wysp Owczych zapowiedział w roku 1998 zmniejszenie liczby gmin, by liczba mieszkańców w każdej z nich przekraczała tysiąc mieszkańców, jednak obecnie jedynie trzy z nich spełniają ten warunek. Doprowadzając do tego stanu zdecydowano się sukcesywnie redukować ich liczbę. (pl)
