No. of bitstreams: 1 João_Avelar_2018.pdf: 2557228 bytes, checksum: da6799afb7449873683f4a915ad8ad9b (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-05-04 / The transboundary region of the Twin Cities (Cidades Gêmeas) consists of the areas located along the line separating the cities/territories of Foz do Iguaçu/ Brazil, Puerto Iguazú/Argentina and Ciudad del Este/Paraguay, respectively, being, nowadays, a center of great commercial flow and a touristic potential region. The objective of the research is to analyze how the Brazilian public policies developed in the Transboundary Region of the Twin Cities were perceived by the three cities and provided the opportunity to form an integrated development project. During the cited period, Brazilian government implemented relevant public policies for border areas, some of them carried out in the region under study. Concerning to Brazilian side, the research data indicate that, although those policies have occurred during a considerable socioeconomic development period of Foz do Iguaçu city, there is no sufficient evidence to considerate such policies as a result of their implementation. Moreover, there is a lack of statistical data related to the other cities involved in the study to undertake a comparative analysis. It can be said that there is an effective work of the economic and social developmental councils of each city, in an attempt to consolidate an integrated development Project. However, the results obtained until now are poor and not so relevant and the reflexes of Brazilian public policies have not been enough yet to affirm that they contribute significantly for the socioeconomic development of Ciudad del Este and Puerto Iguazú. On the other hand, the data point out that Itaipu Technological Park (PTI) is one of the main developmental agents in the regionand that local governance can make a significant contribution to promoting joint actions between the three cities. / A Região Transfronteiriça das Cidades Gêmeas consiste nas áreas localizadas ao longo da linha que separa os territórios de Foz do Iguaçu no Brasil, Puerto Iguazú na Argentina e de Ciudad del Este no Paraguai, sendo um local de grande fluxo comercial e grande potencial turístico. O objetivo da pesquisa é analisar o quanto as políticas públicas brasileiras desenvolvidas na Região Transfronteiriça das Cidades Gêmeas foram percebidas pelas três cidades e oportunizaram a formação de um projeto integrado de desenvolvimento. Neste período o governo brasileiro implantou importantes políticas públicas para a faixa de fronteira, sendo que algumas dessas políticas foram realizadas na região em estudo. Os dados da pesquisa indicam que embora tenha ocorrido no período desenvolvimento socioeconômico em Foz do Iguaçu, não há evidências que esse desenvolvimento resultou apenas do papel dessas políticas e que nas outras duas cidades a falta de dados estatísticos impossibilita uma análise comparativa. Na região há um trabalho efetivo dos conselhos de desenvolvimento econômico e social de cada cidade na tentativa de consolidar um projeto de desenvolvimento integrado, porém, os resultados obtidos ainda são pífios e os reflexos das políticas públicas brasileiras ainda não foram suficientes para contribuir de forma significativa para o desenvolvimento socioeconômico de Ciudad del Este e de Puerto Iguazú. A pesquisa indica que o Parque Tecnológico Itaipu (PTI) é um dos principais agentes de desenvolvimento na região e que a governança local pode contribuir de forma significativa para promover ações conjuntas entre as três cidades.

Gegenstand der Arbeit stellten die deutsch-polnischen und deutsch-tschechischen Euroregionen dar. Sie wurden als ein offenes System betrachtet, das sich aus den in Wechselwirkung stehenden Elementen zusammensetzt: Raum, Grenze, Netzwerk und Umfeld. Diese ganzheitliche, intertemporale Betrachtung der Euroregionen ermöglichte es, dieses komplexe Phänomen besser zur verstehen, Erkenntnisse zur Bedeutung, zum Typus und zu Perspektiven der deutsch-polnischen und deutsch-tschechischen Euroregionen zu gewinnen sowie die gestellten Hypothesen zu überprüfen und zu verifizieren. Die Untersuchungen zur Rolle der deutsch-polnischen und deutsch-tschechischen Euroregionen bezogen sich insbesondere auf die Ermittlung der Bedeutung euroregionaler Netzwerke für die Grenzräume, bei gleichzeitiger Berücksichtigung der Wechselwirkungen mit anderen Elementen des euroregionalen Systems. Hierzu wurde eine Bilanzierung und Evaluierung der bisherigen Arbeit euroregionaler Netzwerke durchgeführt und die Wechselwirkungen analysiert. Im Rahmen der typologischen Untersuchungen wurde nachgewiesen, dass die deutsch-polnischen und deutsch-tschechischen Euroregionen, trotz bestimmter Abweichungen, einen einheitlichen Typus verkörpern. Des Weiteren hat sich herausgestellt, dass die deutsch-polnischen und deutsch-tschechischen Euroregionen sich hinsichtlich der institutionellen, netzwerkrelevanten Aspekte in einer der Entwicklungsphasen westeuropäischer Euregios befinden. Nicht zutreffend ist jedoch diese Aussage in Bezug auf die räumlichen Aspekte. In Anlehnung an die Untersuchungsergebnisse zum evolutionären Charakter der euroregionalen Netzwerke und die bevorstehenden Veränderungen wurden auch die Perspektiven der deutsch-polnischen und deutsch-tschechischen Euroregionen aufgezeigt und anschließend Vorschläge zur Weiterentwicklung und Effizienzsteigerung der euroregionalen Netzwerke erarbeitet. / Theme of the work represented the German-Polish and German-Czech euroregions. They were regarded as an open system, that consists of the in an interaction standing elements: space, border, network and surroudings. All these elements are interdependent. This holistic and inter temporal consideration of the euroregion allowed a better understanding of this complex phenomenon. Besides this, knoweledge concerning importance, type and perspectives of the German-Polish and German-Czech euroregions was acquired and the thesis could be checked and verified. The research of the role of the German-Polish and German-Czech euroregions refered to the verification of importance of the euroregional networks for borderline. The interaction was regarded at the same time with other elements of euroregional system. There was conducted balancing and evaluation of actual euroregional network’s work and analysed the interaction. Following the results of basic analyses was done a typological consideration of those euroregions. It was showed due to exsiting differences and the specific charasteristics the German-Polisch and German-Czech euroregions are of a seperate type.The hypothesis claiming that the German-Polish and German-Czech euroregions represent a development’s phase of the Western European Euregios is only acceptable in the view of the institutional aspects. In the scope of this analysis it was shown that German-Polish and German-Czech. The research’s results of evolutional character of the euroregional networks and forthcoming changes were unlocked the perspectives of the German-Polish and German-Czech euroregions. The proposals for further progress and effective elevation of euroregional network were processed.

Does a border always have to be visible in order to speak of a border area or a border region? The working definitions of border areas and border regions presented in the following article also refer to other approaches. To illustrate this, I analyse the Kahlgrund as a border area neighbouring Franconia and the Low Countries. Additionally, I will analyse two other regions in a comparative but asymmetrical approach. Depending on the example, the temporal focus ranges from the late Middle Ages to about 1650. Initially, Franconia is presented as a region with border areas, but by no means as a border region, on the basis of different boundaries. In a further section, the Kahlgrund is presented as a so-called interface area – without a visible border. Finally, the situation of the Low Countries as a border region is examined.

Von historischen und kulturellen Konzeptionen strukturiert, durch politische Grenzen zerstückelt und geprägt von Kooperation und Konflikten sind Grenzräume ein komplexer Untersuchungsgegenstand. Der vorliegende Band versammelt geschichtswissenschaftliche, soziologische, ethnologische und informationswissenschaftliche Zugänge in zwölf Einzelbeiträgen und einer Schreibdiskussion. Neben theoretisch-methodischen Überlegungen stehen epochen- und auch disziplinübergreifend europäische Grenzräume im Fokus. Die Beiträge des Bandes analysieren diese Raum- und Grenzkonzeptionen empirisch fundiert mit Blick auf die soziale Konstruktion des Raums, die rechtlichen Verknüpfungen, die Alltagspraxis der Grenze, die Ausprägungen von Geschichtsbewusstsein und Geschichtskultur und die Inklusions- und Exklusionsdynamiken in verschiedenen Epochen. / Borderlands are a complex subject to study. They are structured by various historical and cultural conceptions, fragmented by political borders, and shaped by cooperation and conflict. This volume brings together different approaches from history, sociology, ethnology, and information science. It includes twelve individual contributions and a writing discussion. In addition to theoretical-methodological considerations, the volume focuses specifically on European borderlands across epochs and disciplines. The empirical contributions in this volume analyse conceptions of space and borders with special regard to the social construction of space, legal linkages, praxeology of the border, formation of historical consciousness and historical culture as well as the dynamics of inclusion and exclusion in different epochs.

Michal Zezula: Selected issues in the High Medieval transformation of the Moravian- Silesian border region (evidence from archeological sources) This study consists of three chapters and focuses on the Moravian-Silesian border region and its transformation during the High Middle Ages (in the 13th century). For most of the Early Middle Ages, this region lay on the boundary between the early Bohemian and Polish states, and after being annexed to the Přemyslid territories at the end of the 12th century it underwent fundamental changes, which are symbolized by the early emergence of institutionalized towns within the Bohemian Lands. The first chapter focuses on the Golensizi region in the Early Middle Ages, particularly on the village of Holasovice, which has attracted the attention of archeologists and historical researchers for over two centuries. Based on an assessment of older and more recent archeological discoveries and surveys, the significance of the location during the second half of the 12th century and the first half of the 13th century has been determined. Although there is at present no relevant archeological information which would provide evidence of the role played by Holasovice in the structures of the Piast state, its status as a local- level administrative centre in the Přemyslid-controlled...
