Theme of the Conference
As the recent developments in Ukraine
demonstrate, the issue of borders, their functions and changing significance and symbolism presently looms larger than at any time
since the end of the Cold War. The commonplace of global de-bordering, supported by
optimistic notions of globalization and a new
post-Cold War world order, has arguably
succumbed to the reality of increasing complexity and instability in the world system.
We can recognize global megatrends that are
changing the nature of borders while, at the
same time, there are obviously different regional responses and counter tendencies to
these trends that we need to pay attention
in our work.
Global trends – regional responses
Globalization can be understood as unprecedented expansion and transformation of
the global economy and concurrent fluidity
of people and goods, which in a context of
increased securitization, is being identified
clearly as a pressing issue by social scientists, policy makers, and political actors who
have put borders on the agenda. Despite
normative ideas in border studies that favor
a broad cultural, economic and complex governance view of borders and borderlands, a
strict top down international relations view
of borders continue to dominate policymaking. This current era of heightened globalization and geopolitical tension requires that
we pay more attention to changes in the governance of borders and border regions, and
the regional responses that are linked to
such development.
During this post-Cold War era, the nature
of borders has been changing and it is important to understand the complex roles
and realities of borders in the 21st century and thus deal with changing borders and
their strategic, economic, cultural implications. These concerns are partly reflected by
the contemporary state of the art in borders
studies; state borders are commonly understood as multifaceted social institutions
rather than solely as formal political markers of sovereignty. On this view, borders
help condition how societies and individuals shape their strategies and identities. At
the same time, borders themselves can be
seen as products of a social and political negotiation of space; they frame social and political action and are constructed through
institutional and discursive practices at different levels and by different actors. Thus,
through regional responses to globalization,
borders are often reproduced, as in the case
of Ukraine, in situations of conflict where
historical memories are mobilized to support territorial claims, to address past injustices or to strengthen group identity – often
by perpetuating negative stereotypes of the
“other”. At the same time it is, however, important to remember that through new institutional and discursive practices contested
borders can also be transformed into symbols of co-operation and of common historical heritage.
ABS World: Making a
Worldwide Border Studies
Community
The Association for Borderlands Studies
(ABS) is the premiere scholarly association focusing exclusively on border issues.
Formed in 1976 with an emphasis on the
United States-Mexico borderlands, the ABS
has become an association truly global in its
scope and its membership. As an association
devoted to the greater understanding of borders, ABS embraces multidisciplinary approaches and perspectives from all border
researchers worldwide.
Already more than half of the ABS membership lives in one of thirty different countries outside of the United States. As the ABS
grows to meet the challenge of accommodating the ever more international and diverse membership, it has become necessary
to renew some of the traditional logistical
and organizational practices in order to better match the new circumstances. Despite its
Post-Cold War Borders | Global Trends and Regional Responses
5
internationalization, the ABS needs to continue to retain its original emphasis on the
study of the United States-Mexico borderlands region as of its key focal areas.
What is needed is cooperation, not competition, with other relevant border studies
networks. In order to foster greater linkages
and more intensive dialogue between various
networks and organization focusing on border issues ABS is eager to find a new role in
facilitating this dialogue.
As a practical manifestation of this pursuit, the initiative to launch a new working
mode by organizing ABS world conferences every fourth or fifth year was accepted at
the 2012 ABS annual meeting in Houston. It
was here, where the University of Eastern
Finland offered to take charge of organizing the first ever ABS World Conference in
Joensuu, Finland, and St. Petersburg, Russia,
in the summer of 2014.
The ABS World Conference does not aim
to initiate yet another competing border conference series among dozens of established
and high profile events. On the contrary, the
idea is that by offering a forum for a regular global gathering of border scholars, it will
help structure the field and facilitate the development of more thematically and/or geographically specific meetings and conferences and, in this way, strengthening the overall
profile of border studies internationally.
The Association for Borderlands Studies
aims to provide important linkages among
scholars around the globe. The ABS world
conference is a practical example of working towards this goal. Having a broader conference not tied to any specific country or
continent is expected to bring new possibilities also to those living outside the United
States, where the ABS Annual Meetings are
held. While the ABS Annual Meetings held in
6
conjunction with the Western Social Science
Association’s annual conference will remain
as the main gathering of the association, having a broader forum for border dialogue circulating in various different locations all
around the world is very much needed in order to broaden the both the traditional geographical and disciplinary borders of the
association itself, foster its global reach by
encouraging participation from all corners
of the world and in pushing forward the 21st
century scholarship on borders and borderlands. The ABS World aims to bring together various border studies networks to discuss issues of common concern. Welcome is
by no means limited to academics only; the
world conference, as well as the association
as a whole, is open to policymakers, diplomats, law enforcements agencies, non-state
actors, artists and many others alike.
This first ever ABS World Conference is the
first truly globally oriented event sponsored
by the Association for Borderlands Studies.
Scholars from 64 different countries send in
their proposals. The conference is organized
by the VERA Centre for Russian and Border
Studies at the University of Eastern Finland in
cooperation with the Centre for Independent
Social Research and the European University
at St. Petersburg, Russia. Significant financial and scientific contribution has also
been received from ABORNE – The African
Borderlands Research Network, the Finnish
Association for Russian and East European
Studies (FAREES) and the Federation of
Finnish Learned Societies. Among other interesting side events, a pre-conference Round
Table “Co-operation between research community and regional actors in CBC” will also
be organized in cooperation with Association
of European Border Regions (AEBR).
Post-Cold War Borders | Global Trends and Regional Responses
Welcome to our
World Conference!
The Association for Borderlands Studies and
the University of Eastern Finland thank all
our partners that have made this event possible and wish all participants most warmly welcome to the opening sessions of the
conference in Joensuu, the capital of North
Karelia. The first conference days will take
place in the easternmost region of the continental European Union and only 60 kilometers from the Finnish-Russian border. The
North-Karelian region has been actively involved in cooperation with Russian partners
for more than two decades and has also been
the backdrop for numerous academic and official events that have brought border region
issues to public attention. North Karelia, like
much of the European North, is far from the
major urban centers of Europe, but here you
will discover a fascinating and very hospitable region with vast areas of natural beauty.
Our conference is indeed a major international event – and it is a sizable one with over
450 participants. We very much hope you
will enjoy the coming days as the ABS World
Conference takes you from Joensuu through
Eastern Finland to the Russian metropolis of
Saint Petersburg. In the process you will see
different borderlands, each with its own specific history. Together with our Russian and
local Finnish partners we here in Joensuu
are proud to be able to host you and accompany you at this binational academic event.
Warm regards,
Jussi Laine

Presidents Welcome
Dear colleagues
and friends.
It is with great pleasure, that I welcome you
to the first ABS-World
Conference in Joensuu
and St. Petersburg.
What better place than
the Finnish-Russian border region could
have been the location of this meeting? The
ABS is very grateful that the Vera Centre for
Russian and Border Studies at the University
of Eastern Finland in cooperation with the
Centre for Independent Social Research and
the European University at St. Petersburg
has taken the initiative to organize this
meeting. The huge number of participants is
a clear expression of the fact that the ABS
is growing into the premier global discussion forum for border scholars. Although the
central theme of the conference, Post-Cold
War Borders: Global Trends and Regional
Responses, was already appropriately conceived about two years ago, the current global developments make this meeting even
more in touch with the those that are making the headlines. The interpretation of national and regional borders seems currently
being redefined.

The organizers have been able to set up a
great set of panels, which of course only has
been possible because you have responded
massively to the call for participation. As you
will see, the program offers a great combination of parallel sessions, plenaries and excursions. I am sure it offers something for
everyone engaged in border studies.
Of course I also encourage you to keep being involved with the ABS. One way of doing
this is to join the association. Benefits include
access to the Journal of Borderlands Studies
and the online newsletter, La Frontera.
I wish you a great and inspiring conference,
Martin van der Velde

Post-Cold War Borders | Global Trends and Regional Responses
The Association for
Borderlands Studies
The Association for borderlands Studies is
the leading international scholarly association dedicated exclusively to the systematic
interchange of ideas and information relating to international border areas and issues.
Founded in 1976, with an original emphasis
on the study of the United States-Mexico
borderlands region, the ABS has always attracted participation from scholars in other
world regions at its annual conference linked
to the Western Social Science Association in
the U.S., and publication in the Journal of
Borderlands Studies which is now approaching its 30th anniversary as the scholarly journal devoted exclusively to border studies.
During the last decade, the ABS has grown to
represent border regions and border scholarship worldwide, and this representation is
growing stronger every year. Also, after almost 40 years since the ABS was founded,
the association has a rapidly growing membership that is truly interdisciplinary and
representative of hundreds of academic institutions, government agencies and NGOs
from the Americas, Asia, Africa, Australia
and Europe.
The comparative study of international
boundaries and border regions has gained
new urgency and vitality in the post-Cold
War era and the years subsequent to the
events of 9/11 in the beginning of the 21st
century. In this era, as nation-states grapple with the flows and currents of globalization across and between bounded territories that appear to have potentially fewer
and certainly more contested relationships,
borders emerge as more problematic and
borderlands appear more visible and real
in our world. Contemporary issues related to borders and borderlands proliferate in
all world regions and the oceans. These issues include regional economic integration,
emergence of new nation states, expansion
of ethnic conflicts, migrations and diaspora across boundaries, security versus openness of borders, bordering the human body,
identity politics across borders, and much
more. The need to institutionalize management of trans-boundary problems ranging
from immigration to shared environments
to trade to community vitality and even to
public health, has led researchers and policy
developers to view and operationalize border studies in thematic clusters ranging from
people and goods flows, to security, governance, sustainability and culture. There is also
a renewed interest in the history and emergence of borders and borderlands.
The ABS has emerged as a vibrant and flexible association of scholars and other border
specialists who are committed to evaluating border dynamics and sharing knowledge
about borders and borderlands through a
combination of traditional approaches and
the exploration of new directions in border
studies. All of these build on the international relationships and interchange now possible among border specialists in our contemporary global networks. The ABS is emerging
in this network exchange as the viable linkpoint and catalyst for border studies interests, initiatives, projects and organizations. Its journal, the Journal of Borderlands
Studies, is the international forum and record for border research. Currently, the ABS
offers a growing range of services that include communication, networking, information dispersal and support for border studies meetings. Whereas, the ABS will continue
to convene its traditional annual conference
in North America, there will be a growing
ABS presence and linkage with border studies conferences worldwide, and a recognition that border studies is a composite of issue-related, region-specific, policy-linked
and experience-rich engagements among
border studies specialists.
The first ABS World Conference of Border
Studies is a milestone in this growth and integration of border studies. Not only does
ABS World convene the largest and most
representative gathering of border specialists from around the globe, but also this first
Post-Cold War Borders | Global Trends and Regional Responses
11
international conference of its kind establishes a benchmark for the development and
integration of border studies. With the World
conference, border studies have achieved a
new level of expression and interaction. The
challenge now is to take border studies to
greater heights of understanding, knowledge
and policy impact.
VERA Centre for Russian and
Border Studies
The VERA Centre for
Russian and Border
Studies (www.uef.fi/
vera) coordinates and
promotes research
and education programs on Russian and border studies at the University of Eastern
Finland (UEF). It strengthens the strategy of
the University and corresponds to the need
for increasing multi-disciplinary research on
borders and border areas in Russia and
Europe.
The VERA Centre involves researchers
from history, human geography, anthropology, social policy and sociology, political science, cultural studies and linguistics, as well
as business and tourism studies. A special
focal point of the activities of the Centre has
been international cooperation and active
engagement in promoting global networks
in the field of border studies.
The VERA Centre has five inter-disciplinary areas of expertise: Power, institutions and beliefs in Russia and bordering
lands; European borders and neighborhood; Transitions in border regions; Crossborder cultural interaction: tendencies, ideas and concepts on the move; and Tourism,
business and Russia. The project supporting
the establishment of the VERA Centre at the
University of Eastern Finland has been supported by:

The African Borderlands
Research Network
The African Borderlands
Research Network (www.
ABORNE.org) is an interdisciplinary network of
researchers interested in
all aspects of international borders and
trans-boundary phenomena in Africa.
ABORNE is primarily a forum
for academic researchers aiming for a better understanding of Afri­can borderlands, but it also welcomes
individual members and institutions whose
work is of a more applied nature.
ABORNE aims to provide a lively platform
for debate, the sharing of knowledge and the
co-ordination of research activity, conferences and publications.
ABORNE seeks to integrate insights derived from different sub-fields of knowledge
- including history, anthropology, sociology, political science, geography, development
studies, migration studies and refugee studies- that have tended to produce a fractured
body of knowledge about African borderlands.
ABORNE seeks to engage with scholars
and policy-makers working on other parts of
the world and to bring new insights to bear
on borderlands studies in general, both at
the conceptual and the empirical levels.

FAREES is a scientific association established in
1989. The association aims to promote and
publicize research on Russia and Eastern
Europe in Finland and to support international cooperation in the field. FAREES is a
Post-Cold War Borders | Global Trends and Regional Responses
member of the Federation of Finnish
Learned Societies (TSV) and the
International Council for Central and East
European Studies (ICCEES).
FAREES promotes and publicizes Russian
and Eastern European Studies conducted in
Finland. The association is in contact with
domestic and foreign researchers in the field
and invites them for lecture and round-table discussions. It may award grants for researchers and students as well as awards for
distinguished research, teaching or publishing. The most important activities of the association are the Finnish-language scientific journal Idäntutkimus, a newsletter and
the annual conference of Russian and East
European Studies VIEPÄ.
European University at
Saint Petersburg
The European University at
St. Petersburg (www.eu.spb.
ru) was founded in 1994
with the active involvement
of the then city mayor,
Anatoly Sobchak. The
founding members of the University were:
Committee for Real Estate Management,
Government of St. Petersburg; St. Petersburg
Institute for Economics and Mathematics
(Russian Academy of Science); St. Petersburg
branch of Sociology Institute (Russian
Academy of Science); and St. Petersburg
Association of Scientists and Scholars.
Since 1996, EUSP functioned as a research university for the humanities and social sciences, successfully integrating taught
courses with a strong research element. The
university has five departments, eleven research centers, nine Russian-language and
three international Master’s programs in social sciences and humanities. Soon it opens
three PhD programs in anthropology, history,
and political science and sociology.
Apart from its well-known academics,
EUSP is particularly pride of its success
in the third state mega-grant competition
where the university became one of the 42
institutions receiving this major grant. The
71 million ruble grant awarded in sociology category was further significant as it was
one of only six in social sciences, and second
granted for private universities to win in the
history of the competition. In all 720 applications participated in the competition.
Centre for Independent
Social Research CISR
The Centre for Independent Social Research
CISR (www.cisr.ru) was established in 1991
by Viktor Voronkov and Oleg Vite who, still
employees of the Institute of Sociology of the
Russian Academy of Sciences, started to carry out independent research projects on the
rapid social and political changes that were
taking place in the country. The Centre was
to create a flexible and democratic research
institution that would be able to respond to
the demands of a quickly changing Russian
society and, simultaneously, to promote the
integration of Russian sociologists into the
international sociological community. It was
also tasked with becoming an intellectual
and resource center for social scientists and
nongovernmental Russian and international
organizations
Since the 1990’s, the Centre’s research reflects a broad spectrum of sociological interests. However, the majority of studies
conducted by the Centre deal with social
movements, civil society and social structure as well as Soviet institutes and practices and their transformation in the post-Soviet context. Currently, the main research
groups of the Centre are: Migration, ethnicity, nationalism; Law & society; Borders
& frontier communities; Urban studies,
Gender studies; Social studies of economy; and Environmental sociology. In 2011,
the Institute opened the educational center
“the Institute for Advanced Social Research
Technologies”.
