“…The administrations in both regions realized the role of the border as a regional resource for development. Przemysl is exploiting the cross-border trade and the proximity to Ukraine to attract investments and tourists (Brym, 2013), Szczecin and the German suburbs seek to create a transnational metropolitan region. Communes like Löcknitz and Gartz are aware that the proximity to Szczecin and the creation of a cross-border suburbia is their only chance for local development and are securing their infrastructure and relevance (Kamola-Cieślik, 2015).…”

Krzysztof is leaving every morning at 8:00 the German border town Löcknitz. At that time his children are already at the local school. His wife will take the train to Szczecin, since her work starts later. On his way across the border Krzysztof is in the middle of a steady stream of commuters like him. Things got better after Poland joined Schengen, since no control jeopardizes his commute. Although Szczecin is just 30 kilometers away, Krzysztof and his family moved to Germany, as the real estate prices in the Polish suburbs became too high (Malkowska et al., 2016). For German towns like Löcknitz or Gartz, which had been faced with declining population, the cross-border suburbanization came as a savior and for commuters like Krzysztof, the border in its physical form is becoming less relevant for their everyday life and "… sleeping abroad but work at home" became convenient (Balogh, 2013).Capricious pathways -a comparative analysis of local identity building in bo...

“…Moreover, cross-border regions are considered as the result of the process of "glocalization" (globalization of localization), characteristic of the modern historical period (Fehervolgyi et al 2012). Particular attention to tourism and recreation is paid in the studies of the institutionalized cross-border regions which are formed in the EU and on its borders (Brym 2013;Grama 2011;Kovacs 2011;Gal 2009;Scott and Laine 2012;Mezhevich 2009;Fedorov 2020;Małkowska and Nowaczyk 2016). Of particular interest are the works devoted to the analysis of the results of this process and possible scenarios for the long term, for example, on the German-Polish border by E. Opilowska (2017).…”

The Baltic Sea Region There are different approaches to the definition of the Baltic region. They depend on the objectives of the study. We will consider the Baltic region as the territory of countries with access to the Baltic Sea. Sustainable Tourism There are different approaches toward the definition of the term "sustainable tourism." The most commonly used is close to the general definition of the sustainable development but applying not to all the population, but just to visitors who must respect and preserve the environment in the destination for future travelers. However, 1 day each of us becomes "a visitor." Another approach defining it stresses the triangular essence of the term, based on economic, social, and environmental impacts, arising during travel "addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities" (Making Tourism More Sustainable: A Guide for Policy Makers 2005). So, it is possible to underline that there are two sides of the sustainability as far as tourism is concerned: internal sustainability, connected to tourist himself (his/her feeling, behavior, attitude, etc.) and external (connected to the socioeconomic, political consequence of travel). Transborder or Transboundary Tourist-Recreational Region It could be considered as the compactly located territories of neighboring regions of neighboring countries that have a common tourist resource that ensures the functioning of territorial combinations of economic entities united by substantial ties (Kropinova 2016, 2020a).

“…Border scholars occasionally also create their own visual data on border issues. One popular approach is to make images of the two sides of a (political) border for comparison (Brym 2013;Gerst and Klessmann 2015). This approach leads to uncovering otherwise unnoticeable patterns of how the two sides are managed culturally, linguistically, ethnically, politically and economically, and how they differ or are similar to each other.…”
