Franko, Lviv, Ukraine [email protected] Received: 16.02.2020 Abstract. The article is devoted to the study of the transport network development in Received in revised form: 08.03.2020 Transcarpathia along the border with the EU neighboring countries. The historical stages Accepted: 15.05.2020 of the Transcarpathian transport network formation are considered. The main criteria for evaluation and conformity of the transport network in Ukraine have been determined in accordance with European standards. A number of legislative, regulatory, strategic and programme documents covering the development of the national transport network and border infrastructure within the study area are analyzed. The main factors proving the foreign economic activity of the Transcarpathian region towards the EU market are considered and highlighted. The capacity of transit through Ukraine and Transcarpathia within the cross-border territories are revealed. The necessity of the transport network construction is considered due to the fact that the number of passengers and cargo flows on the state border is increasing. It is described, for example, the capacity of rail and road transport across the border of Ukraine and the borders of neighbouring countries , in particular: Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania. It is statistically concluded that the most congested is the Ukrainian-Hungarian border area. The main obstacles to the effective implementation of transport and transit work in the study area are identified and possible solution is proposed involving reconstruction of old units and construction of new checkpoints on the border area of Transcarpathia and its neighbouring countries. The dimensional picture of the border areas is presented: Ukraine - Poland; Ukraine - Slovakia; Ukraine - Hungary; Ukraine - Romania. Within each part the natural resource potential, transport load, features of tourism development, necessity for development and the existing transport network modernization are characterized. Suggestions for construction the new checkpoints as well as their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed and discussed. The priorities of Ukrainian state policy, Transcarpathia as well as the priorities of neighbouring countries in the development of the national transport network within the cross-border territories have been determined. Key words: national transport network, integration, foreign economic activity, passenger and cargo flows, checkpoints, cross-border territories Перспективи розбудови транспортної мережі Закарпатської області в межах транскор- донних територій з країнами ЄС Н.Ф.

Стаття присвячена дослідженню питань розбудови транспортної мережі Закарпатської області вздовж кордону з країнами-сусідами ЄС. Розглянуто історичні етапи формування транспортної мережі Закарпатської області. Визначено основні критерії оцінки та відповідності транспортної мережі України європейським стандартам. Проаналізовано низку законодавчих, нормативно-правових, стратегічних та програмних документів, що регулюють розвиток національної транспортної мережі та прикордонної інфраструктури в межах території дослідження. Розглянуто та виокремлено основні чинники, які доводять, що зовнішньоекономічна діяльність Закарпатської області повністю зорієнтована на ринок ЄС. Розкрито суть та потенціал транзитності території України та Закарпатської області в межах транскордонних територій. Вказано на необхідність розбу- дови транспортної мережі, оскільки навантаження пасажиро- та вантажопотоків на ділянках державного кордону зростає. Наведено, як приклад, пропускну спроможність залізничного та автомобільного транспорту через кордон України та її сусідів, зокрема: Польщі, Словаччини, Угорщини, Румунії.

    24 Carpathian Rus ' INTERETHNIC COEXISTENCE WITHOUT VIOLENCE P R M!" e phenomenon of borderlands together with the somewhat related concept of marginal- ity are topics that in recent years have become quite popular as subjects of research among humanists and social scientists. At a recent scholarly conference in the United States I was asked to provide the opening remarks for an international project concerned with “exploring the origins and manifestations of ethnic (and related forms of religious and social) violence in the borderland regions of east-central, eastern, and southeastern Europe.” 1 I felt obliged to begin with an apologetic explanation because, while the territory I was asked to speak about is certainly a borderland in the time frame under consideration—1848 to the present—it has been remarkably free of ethnic, religious, and social violence. Has there never been contro- versy in this borderland territory that was provoked by ethnic, religious, and social factors? Yes, there has been. But have these factors led to interethnic violence? e answer is no. e territory in question is Carpathian Rus ', which, as will become clear, is a land of multiple borders. Carpathian Rus ' is not, however, located in an isolated peripheral region; rather, it is located in the center of the European continent as calculated by geographers in- terested in such questions during the second half of the nineteenth century. 2 What, then, is Carpathian Rus ' and where is it located specically? Since it is not, and has never been, an independent state or even an administrative entity, one will be hard pressed to nd Carpathian Rus ' on maps of Europe.

PhD in Economics Educational and Scientific Institute of Law named after Prince Volodymyr the Great Interregional Academy of Personnel Management ECONOMIC FEATURES OF REGIONAL COOPERATION AND POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE UKRAINIAN- ROMANIAN BORDER AS THE BASIS OF COMPETITIVENESS OF TRANSBOUNDARY TERRITORIES OF THE ZAKARPATTIA REGION Summary The economic characteristics and their features of the Ukrainian- Romanian border within the cross-border territories of the Zakarpattia region as a basis for assessing the feasibility of opening promising checkpoints on this section of the state border are being researched. The existing enterprises and their capabilities, ethnic and cultural values, logistics, the existing transport system, free economic zones and parks and customs terminals of the Ukrainian-Romanian border in the cross-border areas of the Zakarpattia region are being analyzed. The characteristics of promising checkpoints on the Ukrainian-Romanian section of the state border within the cross-border territory of the Zakarpattia region are substantiated and illustrated, such as: «Khyzha – Tarna Mare», «Yablunivka – Remete (Guta)», «Tiachiv – Malyi Tiachiv» and «Bila Tserkva – Sighetu Marmației». The economic, legal, competitive, regional and cross- border components of the basis for the construction and opening of promising checkpoints on the Ukrainian-Romanian section of the state border are highlighted. Introduction The Zakarpattia region is a multinational land, which combines deep foreign economic ties, unique geographical location and favorable business climate that allows for development of the competitiveness of cross-border 381 areas of the region.

E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted 19 October, 2006 Carpathian complex prognostic poligon has being created for testing of new methods and equipment and their implementation into the practice of seismotectonic investigations in the Transcarpathians. The polygon consists of a network of regime geophysical stations (RGS). I analyzed seismicity of the Ukrainian sector of the Carpathians. It is determined by local earthquakes and strong subcrustal earthquakes of the Vrancea zone in Romania. In this paper, I estimate the most fundamental parameters describing earthquakes: seismic energy E and energy class K=log(E) in a time window of 40 years (1961-2001). Our results show that, the E 1/ 2 plot against time may be a good tool for understanding of a local earthquake activity, although the shape of the plot is strongly influenced by extreme events. Also, we have found a correlation between seismic moment M0 and energy class K of the local earthquakes for Transcarpathian region. Key words: seismicity, energy class, seismic energy, seismic moment, geodynamic polygon, catalogue INTRODUCTION The Carpathian Arc which stretches for about one and year, seismic stations register dozens of local half thousand kilometres is a fragment of the northern earthquakes with magnitude exceeding 2.5.
