Description :
The degree of openness of Poland's borders has changed fundamentally in the last seven years, as the intensity of the traffic crossing them. The aim of this study is to define the degree of advancement of the process of functional change on Poland's borders as a whole, and in reference to the sections of border with particular neigjbours. It is found that, in the 1990-96 period, the highest places were mostly taken by the German border, while the border with the Kaliningrad District was consistently the worst on average. The border improving its position as regards permeability to the greatest degree was that with Lituania. - (BJ)
