dc.description.abstractBorder regions are formed in different spatiotemporal continua and under different initial conditions, where historical factors play the most important role. As a result, these territories are not homogeneous in terms of their character, essence, self-identification, and aspirations. The features of modern border regions have evolved under the influence of geographic, economic, and political factors, as well as migration processes. In this study, attempts were made to classify border regions and to ana-lyze the history and development prospects of these areas as constituent elements of sovereign states. In the group of the examined factors, the main focus was placed on the historical discourse concerning the formation of these territories, their present development, the influence exerted by their respective states, and the interactions with these states. The novelty of the presented research stems from the fact that it classifies modern border regions into three types. The first type includes self-sufficient regions which fostered the development of political nations with a high economic potential, symbolic capital, and stable political institutions. These territories could probably evolve into independent states and, under favorable economic and political conditions, could destabilize their respective countries. The second category of border regions are monoethnic regions with a strong ethnic and religious identity. Due to resource scarcity, these areas are dependent on external funding (both from their respective countries and other states) and could become hotbeds of international conflict. The third type of border regions are territories situated along geographic boundaries, where ethnic or civic identity has not evolved. These areas are vulnerable to external influence, and they are regarded as risk zones that are unable to achieve independence, but can destabilize states whose boundaries overlap these territories.en_US
