Abstract

Granice i pograničja područja su učestalih promjena i specifičnih karakteristika, kako kroz povijest tako i u sadašnjosti, te se pristupi njihovom istraživanju u okviru geografije i multidisciplinarnom kontekstu neprestano mijenjaju i razvijaju. Zbog oblika državnog teritorija, pogranična su područja naročito rasprostranjena u Hrvatskoj, što opravdava značajan interes za njihovo istraživanje u hrvatskoj znanosti, ponajprije geografiji. Krovni predmet i cilj istraživanja u ovom diplomskom radu pogranična su područja i regije u Hrvatskoj, Europi i svijetu, odnosno jezgrovita usporedba različitih aspekata njihovih identiteta analizirajući stavove ispitanika iz tih područja. Koristeći kvalitativni pristup, 23 intervjua provedena su uživo, online i telefonskim putem, a ispitanici su odgovarali su na pitanja o motivima koje vežu uz svoju i prekograničnu regiju, razini povezanosti pograničnih regija, utjecaju same granice na svakodnevni život i identitet stanovništva te stavu o prekograničnoj suradnji. Naposljetku, njihovi su stavovi analizirani, čineći osnovu za kategorizaciju prekogranične povezanosti te tipova granica prema propusnosti. Usto, učinjena je prilagodba modela o prekograničnom osjećaju povezanosti i zajedništva s ciljem omogućavanja usporedbe međusobne povezanosti pograničnih regija te dubljeg razumijevanja njihovih odnosa.

Abstract (english)

Borders and borderlands are areas of frequent changes and specific characteristics, both throughout history and in the present, with ever-changing and evolving approaches to their research within the framework of geography and multidisciplinary context. Due to the shape of the national territory, border areas are especially prevalent in Croatia, which justifies significant interest in their research in Croatian science, primarily geography. The overarching subject and the aim of the research in this Master’s thesis are borderland areas and regions in Croatia, Europe, and the world, i.e., a thorough comparison of different aspects of their identities by analysing the responses of persons from borderland regions. Using a qualitative research approach, a set of 23 interviews were conducted in person, online and by telephone, with respondents answering questions about: motives related to their region and the one across the border, perceived connection between the regions, the effect of borders on the everyday life and identity of the population, as well as their thoughts on current and future cross-border cooperation. Finally, the responses were analysed, forming a base for the categorization of cross-border connection types and border types. In addition, a cross-border sense of commonness model from literature was adapted with the aim of enabling comparisons of mutual sense of connection between different border regions and achieving a better understanding of their relations.
