  • A Historical Geographical Analysis of the Development of the Croatian-Hungarian Border

    A Historical Geographical Analysis of the Development of the Croatian-Hungarian Border

    2014/IV. pp. 75-92. ISSN: 2062-1655 Tvrtko Josip Čelan A Historical Geographical Analysis of the Development of the Croatian-Hungarian Border ABSTRACT This paper analyses the Croatian-Hungarian boundary and state border features and gives an overview of development stages of boundary/border through the history, including Croatian accession to the European Union (EU) in 2013. The aim of this work is to define if antecedent changes have had positive impact on the Croatian-Hungarian border area. I will examine the historical geographical background of the Mura-Drava boundary/border. Next to considering all relevant European and wider literature I will compare and if necessary confront Croatian and Hungarian scientific resources. Special focus will be on assessing the role and importance of the common border and its modifications in the past, with reflection on the current period when the Republic of Croatia is an EU Member State, aiming to join soon the Schengen Area. Although the changes in Europe have been very intensive in the last twenty-five years, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to biggest ever EU enlargement process (2004-2007), the favourable historical circumstances have not been utilised in the Croatian-Hungarian border strip. This area is still suffering from large geographical handicap, presenting strong language and transport barriers. The border zone remained a strong periphery compared to the two capitals (Zagreb, Budapest) of significantly centralised states Croatia and Hungary. Keywords: Croatian-Hungarian boundary, 900 years of joint history, old European border, geographical handicap, language and transport barriers, cross-border area, European Union. IntroDuction “Boundaries are conceived of as lines separating entities from each other.

Early burial of the volcanic centers beneath latest Miocene to Pliocene sediments preserved much of their original relief, permitting their classification into genetic types. More than two-thirds of Hungary is covered by thick Neogene and Quaternary sediments, below which buried volcanic eruptive centers and the extent of their products may only be recognized by complex geologic-geophysical methods. Our study is based on the data of several thousand wells, more than 60,000 km of seismic sections, as well as airborne and surface geophysical (gravimetric, magnetic, electromagnetic, radiometric) data. Results of chemical, mineralogical studies and K/Ar dating of deep cores were also included. The data were evaluated in terms of the regional deep structure of the Carpathian-Balkan region, the Miocene evolution of which was determined by the position, movement and welding of individual microplates. Integration of all available data reveals that the Miocene volcanic centers are concentrated near microplate boundaries.

The different use of the areas – as result of different owner status characteristics and laws – resulted diverse landscapes in Hungary and Serbia. The differences are experiancable nowadays too in many ways therefore the whole area unfortunately can not be treated as one. Because of these basic differences we did not unified the nature conservational plans written by the managing bodies of the two countries. Of course the natural characteristics – climate, geology, water regime, flora and fauna – are very similar therefore it might be possible to simplify the descriptions of the areas but we thought the picture can be complete only if we give all the informations what we have. So finally in the following chapters, in order of flowing of the Danube, we submit the shortened management plans of the Duna-Drava National Park for Karapancsa in Hungary and the same documentation of the Gornje Podunavlje for Karapandža in Serbia.
  • How to Be Successful in Tourism

    How to Be Successful in Tourism

    How to be successful in tourism Created as the part of transnational cooperation project “Tourism and LEADER knowledge exchange between Croatia and Slovak Republic” between MAS Chopok juh and LAG Baranja Data gathering paper on all relevant areas related to rural tourism development in Baranja region 1 / 160 Introduction This paper was created as the part of transnational cooperation project “Tourism and LEADER knowledge exchange between Croatia and Slovak Republic” between MAS Chopok juh and LAG Baranja. Since the main aim of the project is exchange of knowledge and LAG Baranja operates in region with success in developing rural tourism, its task is to develop this paper which compiles most of the available data from various sources on topic of tourism development. Methodology The main methodology of this data compilation is finding and presenting currently available data, information, practical examples and knowledge gathered which illustrate how Baranja region is successful in attracting new tourists and tourism development. The emphasis of the paper is the identification of the best practice examples, while also taking into account characteristics of the process, features and key factors which support or hinder tourism development activities. The paper should answer the question: “How to be successful in tourism?”. It will feature “big” state level initiated development projects and bottom-up community initiated projects appropriate for LEADER principles. This paper is continuation and progression of previous, more narrowed and focused project documents, which should expand knowledge base and give new ideas to our project partner (Mas Chopok juh) to develop their tourism further. Main methods used in this paper: 1.
