According to Ryan Griffiths, we’re in the “Age of Secession”. The characteristics of spatial effects typical of European separatism are consistently examined in this paper. The effects of diffusion, proximity, fragmentation, and scale are given special consideration. The space is not homogeneous; separatism erupts with the most vulnerable territori...
The monograph examines the combination of ethnopolitical, migration and electoral processes in contemporary European countries. The authors use both qualitative and quantitative research methods within the framework of a political science approach. The paper analyzes the attempts of European Union institutions and member-states to address various c...
The significance of economic factors in the emergence and development of “de facto states” remains insufficiently studied and debatable. This article deals with the case of South Ossetia, one of the six unrecognized republics that emerged in the post-Soviet space. Based on the study of statistical data, secondary sources and expert interviews with...
В статье авторы обращаются к феномену локализма как одного из проявлений процесса фрагментации политического пространства – важной особенности культурно-политической динамики в современном мире. В Европе это проявляется в заметном росте значимости локальных политических движений, что отчасти связано с динамикой мировой экономики, которая в значител...
Авторы преследуют две цели. Во-первых, выявить оптимальный метод оценки проницаемости границ в разделенных городах. Во-вторых, оценить проницаемость внутри трех пар поселений на молдо-приднестровской линии разграничения (Бендеры — Варница, Дубоссары — Коржево — Кочиеры, Рыбница Резина). Опираясь на дихотомию концептов debordering и rebordering, мы...
The following case study of the de facto border between the Republic of Moldova and breakaway Transnistria examines how de facto borders affect the daily life of the population living on both sides of the divided territory. We consider the complexities of a legally unrecognised state border that nevertheless acts as a de facto border.

The uncontrolled territories (UT) attract the attention of an increasing number of researchers; however, most publications are devoted to only one type of UTs – unrecognized states. The objective of this paper is to assess and analyze changes in territory and population of all UTs in different macro-regions of the world through 2006–2010 and 2014–2...
In the early 21st century, many European countries saw an increased influence of political parties relying on localized communities. Many new regional parties (RPs) emerged, which put the scientific community in need of understanding the reasons behind their strengthening positions in Europe. The present research provides a critical review of the R...
Новые институциональные условия функционирования территориально-политической системы Сербии берут свой отсчет с 2006 года, когда была принята действующая Конституция. Социокультурное разделение сербского общества преобразуется в раскол усилиями политических акторов (партии, движения и др.), которые артикулируют требования этноконфессиональных и рег...

В статье рассмотрена специфика трансграничных связей, существующих в разделенных псевдогосударственной границей городах Бендеры и Дубоссары. Несмотря на повсеместное утверждение официальных лиц Молдовы и Приднестровья о том, что такого рода взаимодействие сейчас практически отсутствует, в реальности оно широко распространено на низовом уровне - в б...

Limology focuses on the consideration of state borders, administrative barriers, socio-cultural and mental frontiers. However, geographical limology gives its insufficient attention to study of borders of de facto states. In this regard authors propose to introduce...
