Narod, država in identitete v obmejnih prostorih
Vida Rožac-Darovec, 2010, original scientific article

Abstract: Borders have been subject to various types of inquiry in the social sciences and humanities, spanning the fields of the political geographical, social anthropological, sociological, as well as political and cultural history. This paper focuses on the theoretical aspects of investigating borderness and outlines the development of the area which has emerged in the last decades in the field of social studies and the humanities, the so-called "border studies", with a special emphasis on historiography. Border studies open new questions of identity and cultural policy. The aim of the paper is to apply the theoretical findings of political geographers, anthropologists and sociologists to historiographical exploration of border areas, including the Upper Adriatic. In the case of the Upper Adriatic, it is possible to fully appreciate how dramatically the changing borders can affect the lives of the local population. The new political border set after World War II not only divided the territory between two states but also sharply delineated identities. Therefore, in our opinion, the investigation of borders not only deals with the political aspect of their creation and change but necessitates that historians expand their focus to investigating the social and cultural aspects of borderness which manifest the multi-faceted nature of this phenomenon
