This volume investigates the complex socio-political and economic dynamics defining the borderland regions between the European Union and the Russian Federation. The editors, Heikki Eskelinen, Ilkka Liikanen, and James Wesley Scott, compile multidisciplinary research to examine how regional integration, cross-border cooperation, and local governance structures respond to the shifting geopolitical landscape of the post-Soviet era. The text argues that these borderlands function as critical arenas where national policies intersect with local socio-cultural transformations.
