Die Situation der rund 25 Millionen ethnischen Russen in den nichtrussischen Nachfolgestaaten der UdSSR und die Frage des Schutzes dieser Minderheit stellt seit 1992 einen der zentralen Diskussionspunkte der Innen- und Außenpolitik der Russischen Föderation dar. Der Beitrag analysiert die tatsächliche Lage der ethnischen Russen in den einzelnen Republiken, stellt die Politik der Russischen Föderation gegenüber den Russen im "nahen Ausland" dar und diskutiert die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten zur Lösung ethnischer Konflikte im Zusammenhang mit dieser Frage.

Interreg has been the European Union (EU) initiative to support territorial cooperation and integration across borders. 30 years of Interreg, though, have not changed the fact that different barrierspersist at the inner borders of the EU, and that only a few cross-border territories have emerged as joint action spaces with in-depth political cooperation and people's interaction. While it is consensus thatcross-border economic flows are decisive for the development of functional and in the end institutionalized cross-border regions, regional econometric models demonstrate the persistence of border barrierswithin the EU, but also that the removal of these barriers greatly increases regional growth potential. In a research project focusing on the alignment of cross-border regional economic interests, cross-bordernetworks between business and politics and cross-border policies in the Danish-German cross-border region Sønderjylland-Schleswig we have discovered issues on different communication codes between businessand politics, lack of tangible cross-border development strategies and a lack of alignment of shortterm, time delimited Interreg project oriented operational programs to tangible, long-term strategies ofcross-border regional economic development. EU territorial cohesion policies could be better aligned with long-term, cross-border economic strategies to create sustainable cross-border development. It will beimportant to rethink Interreg in a less project-oriented, but more strategy-oriented direction; focusing on flows and institutional settings promoting the development of flows by reducing cross-border barriers.

Addressing and conceptualizing the changing character of borders in contemporary Europe, this book examines developments occurring in the light of European integration processes and an on-going tightening of Europe's external borders. Moreover, the book suggests new ways of investigating the nature of European borders by looking at border practices in the light of the mobility turn. It provides border scholars and researchers as well as policymakers with new empirical and theoretical evidence on the de- and re-bordering processes going on in diverse border regions in Europe, both within and ou.
