Description
This policy analysis examines geopolitical and sociocultural bordering practices in Europe’s cross-border regions and their impact on civil society participation and governance in state peripheries. The normative hope of democratisation and the legitimisation of European politics in European Union border regions are connected with a greater degree of cross-border citizen engagement in Euroregional institutions and politics. Using the example of the European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation, this study analyses and compares four cross-border Euroregional case studies: Tyrol–South Tyrol–Trentino, Galicia–North Portugal, SaarMoselle and the planned German–Polish TransOderana EGTC.

Reviews
»The theoretical framework [...] does not only navigate through the book but may offer guidance for everyone who wants to get a basic theoretical understanding of key topics of the dissertation. Ulrich gives a strong emphasis on the conceptualization of participatory governance in the context of cross-border regions, and the readers can dive into the theory of democracy and elaborations about the meaning of civil society. Also, the debate on the evolution of cross-border regions in the EU is very illustrative and possibly helpful for students who would need a structured overview of the purpose and timeline of cross-border cooperation inside of the EU.«
