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.

  • Lake Peipsi/Chudskoe Basin – Lessons Learned
    Lake Peipsi/Chudskoe Lake Peipsi/Chudskoe Basin – Lessons Learned Gulnara Roll, Aija Kosk, Estonian Agricultural University Peeter Unt, Natalia Alexeeva, Peipsi Center for Transboundary Cooperation Introduction Lake Peipsi/Chudsko-Pskovskoe, sometimes called Peipus (further Peipsi), is the fourth largest and the biggest transboundary lake in Europe. Its three names originated from three languages historically used in the region – Peipsi came from Estonian, Chudsko-Pskovskoe from Russian and Peipus has German roots. Lake Peipsi belongs to the water basin of the Narva River (or Narova), a 77 km long watercourse, which connects Lake Peipsi with the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea. Estonian and Russia share the Lake Peipsi and three countries, including Estonia, Russia and Latvia, share Narva River basin. Latvia has only 5% of the water basin and pollution from its territory is very small in the overall pollution load in the basin. What makes the Lake Peipsi specific and different from other great lakes of the world is that it is located on the future European Union border with Russia and is shared by countries in transition. Estonia regained its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. Before that Lake Peipsi was an internal big lake in the northwest of the Soviet Union where the same legislation, procedures, environmental standards were applied for the whole lake basin and therefore it is a new transboundary lake. With these radical political changes at the beginning of the 1990s, the socio-economic context of water management also changed drastically as existed earlier economic contacts across the lake were disrupted with the establishment of border customs control on the border between Russia and Estonia.

  • The Broken Axis of Juhkental: a Different Kind of Heart
    Heili Sepp Viru County Court The Broken Axis of Juhkental: A Different Kind of Heart Juhkental, Joachimstal, Joaorg – the historical district located to the south of Narva Old Town and Hermann Castle is rarely remembered when discussing Narva these days. That might be somewhat justified considering the suburb was officially united with the city only in 1917. Nevertheless, the oldest settlements of the area are located at Joaorg and there is something else at its heart that one might consider a painfully exact symbol of Narva. The whole layout of the suburb that burst into its true existence in the end of the 19th century (and was a home for ca 7000 people in the beginning of the 20th century - most of them workers at Kreenholm) had a majestic axis uniting two polarities at its core. The suburb burnt down twice (in April of 1919 and during WWII) but the axis remained, albeit today we experience it as something broken. The two places of worship – Alexander’s Cathedral (Lutheran) and The Resurrection of Christ Cathedral (Orthodox) – were designed to dominate this part of the city and to face each other in direct confrontation or dialogue. Originally everyone passing Juhkental could be overwhelmed by the experience of standing between two towering cathedrals – each one at its own end of the Church street. This historical view belongs to the past due to the architectural changes creating a strict “stonewall” to split the district apart: a kind of internal border. That is not the only way how Juhkental appears to be a place of boundaries.

Tänapäeval ei seosta Eesti kodanik nime Narva mitte ehk jõe endaga, vaid esmalt Eesti Vaba- riigi ja Venemaa piiril asuva linnaga ning Eesti 5-kroonise rahatähega, mille tagaküljel on kuju- tatud Narva ja Jaanilinna piirikindlus. Narvale kui tööstuslinnale energiat andnud võimsad veejõud suruti 20. sajandi keskpaigas elektrijaama kanalisse. Tänapäeval saavad joad vaid paar korda aastas kohiseda, meenutades aegu, mil kosealustel kärestikel kudesid lõhed ning trügisid Peipsi poole angerjad. Jõgedel on oluline koht meie asustusajaloos: nad olid liikumisteed ja nende kallastele tekkisid esimesed asulad.
