Navigating re-borderings
Many European border regions are home to national minorities, which were divided from their kinstate through historical bordering processes. European integration has eased connections with the kinstates, especially when the Schengen regime of open borders was implemented. This article scrutinizes how borderland minorities have been coping with re-borderings in times of crisis and how the inclusion of borderland minorities in cross-border regional…

Schleswig and Non-Territorial Autonomy – The Territorial Trap
Non-territorial autonomy (NTA) is a concept to ensure political and cultural participation of national minorities in society and thus a tool to manage diversity without challenging territorial integrity. This article relates to the experience of Schleswig, which is widely perceived as a model of successful border-delineation based on national self-determination and subsequent reconciliation and accommodation of national, linguistic, and cultural …
The impact of the Corona crisis on borderland living in the Danish-German border region with a special focus on the two national minorities
In 2020, the Sars-CoV-2 (also known as the COVID-19/Coronavirus) crisis resulted in the closure of most of Europe’s borders, both external and internal. What consequences does this have for border regions as living spaces? This article uses the Danish-German border region as an example for the complex impact of the Sars-CoV-2 crisis on a European borderland. A special focus is placed on the region’s reciprocal national minorities on either side o…
The Danish–German Border in Times of Covid-19
The Danish–German border in the Schleswig region was drawn in 1920. It separated a hitherto economically and socially integrated region, taking into account the right of national self-determination. Since the late 20th century, Danish and German stakeholders have celebrated a narrative of overcoming the border. Thus, it came as a shock to local stakeholders when the border was closed in mid-March 2020 to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus. …
The So-Called 2015 Migration Crisis and Euroscepticism in Border Regions
This paper examines the role of Euroscepticism on regional cross-border cooperation between Germany and Denmark. It demonstrates that Euroscepticism, while absent from local mainstream politicians, had already caused civic unrest in the 1997 attempts to construct a return to history Euro-region Schleswig. It resulted in a re-scaling of the Euro-Region to Region and Schleswig to “Sønderjylland/Schleswig”, omitting any reference to Europe, European…
Mapping International Co-authorship Networks in Border Studies (1986–2018)
Border studies have become increasingly global over the past two decades. Yet, a network analysis of the articles published in the Journal of Borderlands Studies from 1986 to 2018 shows that less than half of them have one or more coauthors. Unlike in other scientific disciplines, where a growth of co-publications is observed, this proportion has not really changed over the last decade. Our paper also shows that major divisions can be found withi…
Secondary foreign policy
Studies on international relations increasingly focus on actors at the sub-state level. The terms para-diplomacy or proto-diplomacy are used to describe international activities of state institutions below the national level and outside the foreign services. In this special issue, we have collected seven case studies from Europe, North America and Asia, where the authors analyse recent developments of de- and re-bordering focusing on the role of …
Minorities as secondary foreign policy agents in peace-building and reconciliation? The case of Denmark and Germany
The border between Germany and Denmark is a result of the Versailles Peace Treaty implemented after the First World War. Drawn after a plebiscite in 1920, it was challenged until at least the 1950s by key actors within the respective national minorities on either side of the border and their nationalist supporters. Since the millennium, though, a narrative of reconciliation and cooperation has taken over, where national minorities’ institutions h…

(Un)Familiarity? Labor Related Cross-Border Mobility in Sønderjylland/Schleswig Since Denmark Joined the EC in 1973
This article presents an analysis of recent developments in labor-related mobility (cross-border commuting) in the Danish–German border region of Sønderjylland-Schleswig. The region had an integrated labor market, until today's German–Danish border was drawn in 1920, dividing the historic Duchy of Schleswig. Until Denmark joined the EC in 1973, the Danish–German border was practically closed to labor-related mobility. Since then, commuting remain…
Half Empty or Half Full? Over 30 Years of Regional Cross-Border Cooperation Within the EU
This article examines four cross-border regions across the Dutch–German and Danish–German border, which now have experience of over 30 years' more or less institutionalized cross-border cooperation: the Euregio Rhein–Ems–IJssel (often referred to as EUREGIO), the Ems–Dollart Region, Region Sønderjylland-Schleswig, and Fehmarn Belt Region. The focus is on evaluating barriers against and incentives for cross-border activities in connection with cro…
