    Europ. Countrys. · 2· 2013 · p. 102-114 DOI: 10.2478/euco-2013-0007 European Countryside MENDELU CROSS-BORDER CO-OPERATION IN THE EUROREGIONS AT THE POLISH-CZECH AND POLISH-SLOVAK BORDERS Sylwia Dołzbłasz1 Received 18 January 2013; Accepted 12 April 2013 Abstract: The paper deals with border regions in Poland, which are regarded as a specific type of peripheral areas. The aim of this paper was to assess the Polish-Czech and Polish-Slovak border cooperation at the local level and to compare it to the Polish- German border. The studies were based on the analysis of the microprojects qualified for implementation under the Microprojects Fund within INTERREG IIIA programmes. Particular emphasis was put on the type characteristic of the projects and institutional structure of beneficiaries. Moreover, the relationships between analysed features were studied. The spatial distribution of projects was also examined. The role of Euroregions in the process of cross-border co-operation implementation was described. The analysis of the microprojects was carried out for the Poland’s southern border and the western one, as well as for particular Euroregions. Key Words: cross-border cooperation, border areas, Euroregions, microprojects, Interreg, peripheral areas, transborder relations Abstract: Artykuł podejmuje problematykę polskich regionów przygranicznych, które są postrzegane jako specyficzny typ obszarów peryferyjnych.

The methodological basis of the study consists of the following approaches to the study of Euroregions: geographical, political, administrative, functional. Definitions of the Euroregion as the main form of cross-border cooperation have been determined, and institutions promoting cross- border cooperation between Ukraine and Poland have been studied. The institutional support for cross-border cooperation within the framework of the “Carpathian” and “Bug” Euroregions has been examined. Features of the Ukrainian-Polish Euroregions – “Carpathian” and “Bug” have been characterized. Problematic issues concerning the Euroregion cross-border cooperation support have been identified. Moreover, recom- mendations on improving the institutional component of the Ukrainian-Polish CBC within the “Carpathian” and the “Bug” Euroregions are given herein. Key words: institutional support, cross-border cooperation, “Carpathian,” “Bug,” Ukraine, Poland eing an element of the state policy, today, cross-border cooperation B(CBC) occupies an important place in socio-economic development priorities and European integration directions.

Decentralization of Euro regional Co-operation on the Eastern Border of the European Union: Perspectives for Ukrainian Self-government Kish Yeva Doctor of Historian Science (D.Sc.) Professor, Head of the Department of Hungarian History and European Integration Uzhhorod National University, Ukraine DOI:10.13165/VPA-19-18-2-07 Abstract. The main aim of our research is to discover the core theoretical and juri- dical aspects of Euroregional co-operation on the eastern border of the European Union. The main objectives of our research are to discover the essence of the institutional system of the Carpathian Euroregion and the problems around Euroregional co-operation as related to Ukraine. By using the methodology of functional analysis and analogy, and a comparative analysis of the systematic research of Euroregional co-operation we will examine on the essence and experience of Euroregional co-operation. Decentralization is a structurally decisive factor as related to Euroregional co- operation development in Ukraine and efficiently acting Euroregions of Ukraine in the European comparative context. It means that Euroregions are built from below, based on imitative from self-government authorities; maximum involvement of co-operation of regions; delegating real competencies to self-government authorities of Ukraine. This article is focused on analyzing Euroregional co-operation. As of today Euroregional co-operation in Ukraine is a tool for the development of border regions while at the same time a factor for implementing its European integration aspirations.

  • Successes and Failures in the CBC History of East Europe (Retrospection to the Three Decades of My CBC Activities and Researches)
    Successes and Failures in the CBC History of East Europe (Retrospection to the Three Decades of My CBC Activities and Researches) István SÜLI-ZAKAR* Abstract: The idea of co-operation (mainly for security policy and economic policy reasons) came to the front in the western part of the European continent some years after the World War II. The political background of the co-operation and union were given by the German-French reconciliation. The elimination of the damage that was caused by the Second World War’s terrible destruction, the needs for the reorganization of the economy and the loss of the world market’s leading role helped and hastened the co-operation. The result of them was the birth of the first organs and institutions of the European Union. In Western Europe the internal borders between EU member states were abolished in the first half of the 1990s. By the 1990s not only in economic, but also in political and legal sense the unified Western European market came into existence. By the end of the Second World War, the region had become a crucial strategic zone for the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact as a bulwark against Western capitalism and the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. Post World War II Europe saw the integration of the region into the ‘Soviet Bloc’ and its insistence on regional security i.e. state borders were fortified and rigid with little opportunity for local cross-border co-operation and inter- regional connections. Bilateral relations between the states of the region were strictly under the control of the central governments and largely confined to inter-governmental mechanisms.

  • The Economic Development of Cross-Border Cooperation Euroregions of Romania As a Determinant of European Security
    European Integration - Realities and Perspectives. Proceedings 2020 The Economic Development of Cross-Border Cooperation Euroregions of Romania as a Determinant of European Security Emanuel –Ștefan Marinescu1, Vasile Bogdan2 Abstract: Populations of different ethnicities are forced to live within artificial borders, being separated by fences that mutilate their national feeling as well as their future prospects. In recent years, the European Union has tried to overcome the difficulties of the past, creating real bridges between neighbouring states, which divide regions on both sides of the border. The approach serves the need for balance, peace and relaxation in areas that have been in difficulty as a result of past conflicts. The initiative of the countries in Western Europe initially started in Germany, the area being hardly tried in the last world conflagration. In establishing cross-border collaborations, economic-financial support is essential for raising the standard of living and expectations of cross-border communities. In the contemporary context of cross-border cooperation, Romania presents itself as extremely open to cooperation, in its 12 Euroregions. The economic factor is the most important for the future success of the Euroregions, as a decisive parameter of real integration. Keywords: cross-border cooperation; territorial cooperation; Euroregions; transborder relations; mutual collaboration; good neighbours 1. The General Context Throughout the entire history, harsh, forceful and destructive actions took place, which blocked off the development of ethnic groups and nations in their initial areas of self-actualization. In the case of the Romanian people, we can argue that these lands’ inhabitants experienced debacles and continual interruptions in their permanence within their very space of constitution and living, their own territory being cannily paired down.

  • Euroregion As a Tool for Sustainable Development of Border Areas: the European Experience and Ukrainian Features
    DOI: 10.2478/vjbsd-2014-0011 58 Visegrad Journal on Bioeconomy and Sustainable Development 2/2014 EUROREGION AS A TOOL FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF BORDER AREAS: THE EUROPEAN EXPERIENCE AND UKRAINIAN FEATURES Yuliia Tkachenko Cherkasy State Technological University, Cherkasy, Ukraine The purpose of the research is to study the role of Euroregions in the provision of sustainable development of border regions of Ukraine on the basis of the analysis of European experience and the research of Ukrainian practice. The paper describes the development of transboundary cooperation in Europe, the peculiarities of the integration processes in the Euroregions, shows the development of Euroregions in Ukraine: „Carpatskyj“, „Bug“, „Nyzhnij Dunaj“, „Dniester“, „Verhnij Prut“, „Dnieper“, „Slobozhanshchyna“, „Yaroslavna“, defines their composition and structure, describes the basic functioning problems, such as low level of social and economic development in comparison with other (central) regions, the peripheral nature of economics, the presence of “a zone of potential political exertion“; the distance from the inner sources of regional security forms their focus on foreign economic cooperation, which makes them fragile to the dynamics of trade and economic relations of Ukraine with the neighbouring countries. The map of attraction of the regions of Ukraine into the European regions is made, in particular the regions that are proposed to be included in the composition of European regions for activation of transboundary cooperation are selected, and

  • Cross-Border Regions in Europe Significance and Drivers of Regional Cross-Border Co-Operation
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Spiral - Imperial College Digital Repository Definite version appeared in European Urban and Regional Studies 10(2): 153–171. CROSS-BORDER REGIONS IN EUROPE SIGNIFICANCE AND DRIVERS OF REGIONAL CROSS-BORDER CO-OPERATION Markus Perkmann Abstract The 1990s have seen a strong surge in the number of cross-border regions all over Western and Eastern Europe. The article analyses the emergence of these local cross-border institutions in public governance by addressing their context, dimensions and causal underpinnings. First, it offers a brief background on the history of cross-border regions in Europe and related EU policies to support them. Second, it provides a conceptual definition of crossborder regions and their various forms and positions within the wider context of other transnational regional networks. Third, it analyses the empirical dimensions of European cross-border regions, including their frequency, geographic distribution and development over time. It concludes by linking cross-border regions and their various forms to institutional conditions in specific countries as well as the effects of European regional policy. It is argued that small-scale cross-border regions have flourished in particular because of their increasingly relevant role as implementation units for European regional policy in a context of multi-level governance. KEYWORDS ; cross-border co-operation ; cross-border region; EU; Euroregions; Interreg; interregional co- operation with their cross-border counterparts, local There are more than 70 cross-border regions in and regional communities can emancipate Europe today, operating under names such as themselves vis-à-vis nation-state dominance ‘Euroregions’, ‘Euregios’ or ‘Working (Cappellin, 1992; Murphy, 1993; Gonin, 1994).
