The article is based on the theoretical presumption that the successful and balanced spatial development at all hierarchical levels (local, regional, national, international) depends on close and effective partnership, cooperation and communication of many groups of the different actors. It brings own definition of partnership for local and regional development and there is included basic categorisation of different kind of partnerships as well.
