Social integration in the Italo-Slovene Gorizia transborder region

Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
This paper provides a survey of the local dimension of the problems caused by the dividing of a consolidated historical region after World War II, and the phenomenon of its persistence in the field of human relations. The analysis of the regional structure and cross-border behaviour leads to the conclusion that social and functional integration is determined less by the proximity of the border than by a common social, cultural and territorial background of the border population.
