“…This industrialization replicated the Soviet model, emphasizing the heavy and armament industry, and neglecting consumer goods. 61 It was successful to a degree, changing the economy into industrial one, a copy of the Western Fordist economies of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.…”

“…The central part of the border is the line where Brandenburg State neighbors the region of Lubuskie, the latter being the historic, eastern part of Brandenburg. The state boundary follows the rivers that cut across several towns (or nowadays towns and villages), including Küstrin Kietz-Kostrzyn, Frankfurt (Oder)-Słubice and Guben-Gubin (Jajeśniak-Quast, 2000). Both sides of the border are rural, with visible forest areas.…”

The border between Germany and Poland represents one of the most interesting examples of dynamic political, economic and social transformation one can observe in post-Cold War Europe, being a very successful example of close cooperation. Ongoing debordering logics can be noticed there, but their forms and pace also reveal stagnation, or even regress in some sectors. It is claimed that the dynamic intensification of cross-border cooperation there after the collapse of the communist regimes in this part of Europe resulted from a complex set of interactions on the European, national and local levels. The key objectives there were relatively convergent which contributed to rapid debordering. They started, however, to diverge over time, differently on each of the levels. This process was contextualized in the symmetries and asymmetries existing on the border, which in many cases resulted in rebordering tendencies.

“…Conversely, few linkages across the Polish-German border survived World War II and the Cold War. In the early 1990s, there were no shared cultural traditions, no widespread language skills, and only extremely limited cross-border social networks (Jajeśniak-Quast & Stokłosa 2000). In many cases, citizens showed outright hostility: on the day the visa agreement came into force, the first Polish coaches arriving in Frankfurt on Oder on were greeted by stone-throwing neo-Nazis (Rada 2004).…”

Cross-border cooperation is recognised as an important aspect of regional development and especially EU cohesion policy. Policy effectiveness depends on how well programmes are suited to different border regional contexts. This essay analyses the factors that shape cooperation by comparing the Polish-German and Polish-Slovak border regions. Particular emphasis is placed on the cultural factors that set these two regions apart. The essay reveals that close-knit networks across the Polish-Slovak border promote successful policy definition and implementation. At the same time, the absence of such networks across the Polish-German border has led to a high degree of policy innovation. CROSS-BORDERCOOPERATION IS WIDELY RECOGNISED AS PLAYING an important role in regional development concepts. Cooperation is useful in coordinating policy and jointly exploiting common development potentials. Some border regions are seen as handicapped by their peripheral location and because national borders tend to hinder flows of trade, information and people (Anderson et al. 2003; Bufon 2003). In such a context, competent cross-border cooperation can help to create synergies, provide networking opportunities and give development impulses. It is for these reasons that cooperation is increasingly important in EU cohesion policy (Mirwaldt et al. 2009); since the start of the 2007-2013 funding period, cross-border cooperation has been funded by the EU as one of the fundamental objectives of cohesion policy, European Territorial Cooperation. Because territorial
