Let G be a subset of the dual of a real Banach space X and F ⊂ G. Then F is a James boundary of G if each w∗ -continuous linear functional on X attains its supremum over G on an element of the set F. We ask whether a norm bounded subset of X which is countably compact for the topology generated by F is ne- cessary sequentially compact for the topology generated by G. The main content of our work is a positive solution to this problem. As a corollary we obtain James characterization of weakly compact subsets of a real Banach space. Due to the Eberlein-Šmuljan theorem a positive solution to the so called boundary problem is shown as a special case of the affirmative answer to the question raised above. The question is further discussed for a case of Banach spaces defined over the complex field. In this case we cannot use the old definition of the James boun- dary but by a "natural" way it is possible to redefine the term James boundary and then we are able to answer our question positively again. 1
