Estonia’s Divided Border Cities – Co-operation and Conflict Within and beyond the EU Thomas Lundén Boundary Theory Aboundary is a line, usually in space, at which a certain state of affairs is terminated and replaced by another state of affairs. In nature, boundaries mark the separation of different physical states (molecular configurations), e.g. the boundary between water and air at the surface of the sea, between wood and bark in a tree stem, or bark and air in a forest. The boundaries within an organized society are of a different character. Organization means structuration and direction, i.e. individuals and power resources are directed towards a specific, defined goal. This, in turn, requires delimitations of tasks to be done, as well as of the area in which action is to take place. The organization is defined in a competition for hegemony and markets, and with the aid of technology. But this game of definition and authority is, within the limitations prescribed by nature, governed by human beings.

    Luua Metsanduskool Artiklid ja uurimised V Luua 2006 Kogumiku väljaandmist toetas: Luua Metsanduskool. Artiklid ja uurimused V Koostaja ja vastutav toimetaja Veiko Belials © Luua Metsanduskool ja autorid, 2006 ISSN 1406-8842 SISUKORD SÄÄSTEV METSANDUS EESTIS – UTOOPIA VÕI TEGELIKKUS? Külle Viks Eestlased on põline metsarahvas; pool Eestist on metsa all – need käibefraasid on kõigile pähe kulunud. Nii pole ka ime, et metsaga toimuv ühiskonnale korda läheb. Säästev metsandus – see on väljend, mida metsast rääkides aina sagedamini kohtab. Pea ükski keskkonnaministri kõnegi ei saa enam selle maagilisevõitu sõnapaarita, mis kordub kui mantra ja peab päästma Eesti metsanduse. Samas pole säästev metsandus aga midagi eraldiseisvat, vaid seda tuleks vaadata säästva arengu taustsüsteemis. Mida siis ikkagi kujutab endast säästev areng? Eesti oli Costa Rica järel üldse teine riik, kes võttis 1995. aastal vastu säästva arengu seaduse. Niisiis võiks väita, et Eesti on selles valdkonnas esirinnas ja säästev areng on juba ammu tegelikkus. Paraku tundub, et päris nii see siiski pole. Esiteks võib väita, et nimetus “säästev areng” ise on mõnevõrra eksitav. Seostub ju sõna “säästev” säästmise ehk siis kokkuhoiu mõistega. Nii ongi levimas ekslik arusaam, et säästev areng tähendab võimalikult vähest tarbimist – säästmist. Õnneks on kasutusel ka eesti keelele palju omasemad ja täpsemad sõnastused – tasakaalustatud areng ja jätkusuutlik areng. Mis on aga selle sõnapaari sisu? Säästva arengu seadus ütleb: looduskeskkonna ja loodusvarade säästliku kasutamise eesmärgiks on tagada inimesi rahuldav elukeskkond ja majanduse arenguks vajalikud ressursid looduskeskkonda oluliselt kahjustamata ning looduslikku mitmekesisust säilitades (Säästva arengu... 1995). See sõnastus põhineb 1983. aastal ÜRO Peaassamblee otsusega loodud sõltumatu Keskkonna ja Arengu Maailmakomisjoni ehk niinimetatud Brundtlandi komisjoni 1987.
