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…

Impact of the Czech–Polish intergovernmental Turów dispute on mental distance and cross-border integration
The Turów lignite coalmine, a decisive economic actor and employer, is situated on the Polish side of the trilateral Euroregion Neisse–Nysa–Nisa. The decision to continue coal mining until 2044 was disputed, as Czech authorities raised concerns about its negative impact on the environment. This resulted in a Czech–Polish dispute that ended with an intergovernmental agreement in February 2022. However, during the 2 years preceding the conflict res…
Resilience of Cross-border Cooperation in the Neisse-Nisa-Nysa Euroregion after the Pandemic
The article focuses on analyzing the impact of pandemic-induced border closures on cross-border integration within the Euroregion Neisse-Nisa-Nysa (ERN) encompassing parts of Germany, Czechia, and Poland.The restrictions on border crossings significantly disrupted the flow of people and goods across the ERN, affecting the daily lives of individuals residing on both sides (or all three sides) of the borders, particularly cross-border commuters.The…
Euroregions as political actors
The article examines the role of the Euroregions in the first Covid-19 pandemic wave in Europe. The beginning of the pandemic in the spring of 2020 led to the closures of state borders. This complicated the situation of Polish cross-border commuters working in Germany and the Czech Republic. The border closure also showed the strength of Euroregions, able to react and transmit the demands of borderlanders to the Polish government. To analyse this…
Cross-border cooperation in the shadow of crisis – the Turów Coalmine case
Background: The study concerns the inter-governmental dispute between the Polish and the Czech governments on the planned Turów coalmine expansion and its impact on the cross-border cooperation between the Polish and the Czech entities, particularly in the sphere of cross-border partnerships conducting microprojects financially supported by the INTERREG Program. The conflict went before the European Court of Justice in 2021 and was the cause of h…
New re-bordering left them alone and neglected
The article focuses on the impact of the new re-bordering, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, on the functional, ideational and institutional dimension of cross-border integration, as perceived by the Czech cross-border commuters employed on the German side of the Euroregion Elbe Labe. The interviews with forty cross-commuters showed that they were left alone in these times of re-bordering and became victims of non-coordination between Czechia and …
Challenges of Pandemic-Related Border Closures for Everyday Lives of Poles and Czechs in the Divided Town of Cieszyn/Český Těšín
The article asks whether the divided town Cieszyn-Český Těšín can be considered a joint “living space” in the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic. It evaluates the impact of the pandemic on various aspects of the daily lives of the inhabitants and institutions of both parts of this divided town. Three main dimensions of cross-border integration were studied: cross-border flows, cross-border structures/institutions, and the feeling of togetherness, wh…
Five Roles of Cross-border Cooperation Against Re-bordering
The paper observes an advent of unilateralism, brought by the pandemic, which has restricted cross-border flows and co-operation in the E.U. The pandemic re-introduced borders back in the E.U. and introduced new national border policies, which have complicated the lives of the people in the border regions. This might imply the imperfect communication between local cross-border co-operation stakeholders and central governments. It is therefore pro…
Cross-border cooperation as a reconciliation tool
Cross-border co-operation (CBC) is a prominent form of secondary foreign policy, implemented by local/regional actors and serving as a tool for overcoming the barriers arising from state borders. Many borders are areas of former conflicts, including territory of Euroregion Tesin/Cieszyn Silesia. Our goal is to analyse whether this Euroregion acts as a reconciliation tool. We departed from a concept of secondary foreign policy and complemented tha…
