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. -

David J. Trimbach* and Shannon O’Lear Department of Geography, University of Kansas, 1475 Jayhawk Blvd., 213 Lindley Hall, Lawrence, KS 66045, USA (Received 31 May 2015; accepted 15 October 2015) Russia’s illegal annexation of Crimea and involvement in Ukrainian border regions pose serious consequences and questions. The precedence of Russian military intervention illustrates the porosity and potential for conflicts in other post-Soviet border regions. The Estonian borderland city of Narva, populated predominantly by Russian-speakers, is one such potential site of tension. Based on preliminary findings and data collected in Narva in 2013, this article provides an overview of citizenship, identity, and geographic affiliation issues among Narva’s Russian-speaking commu- nity in an effort to generate insights as to how any Russian overtures and potential intervention might be received in Narva. -

(AP Photo/Dmitri Lovetsky) By Maris Hellrand | AP April 30, 2021 at 12:27 p.m. EDT NARVA, Estonia — Two jazz musicians gave an unusual concert Friday on the Estonia-Russia border, where Estonian guitarist Jaak Sooäär and Russian saxophonist Alexey Kruglov performed from castles on the opposing banks of the river that separates their countries. The musicians combined rhythms on International Jazz Day as an act of friendship, despite the deteriorating relations between Russia and Estonia. The coronavirus pandemic has limited opportunities for cross-border contact. “As the border stayed closed, I have friends on the other side of the border with whom I wanted to play with, so we decided to do it,” Sooäär said before the concert. -
