“…The concept of "spatial integration" is generally used to refer to the interactions between different territories, whether these relations are international (Dabinett and Richardson 2005), interregional (Armstrong and Vickerman 1995;Anderson and Wever 2003), between cities (Cheshire 1999;van Oort, Burger, and Raspe 2010), or intra-metropolitan (Hansen and Serin 2007;Sohn, Reitel, and Walther 2009). Spatial integration thus reflects "the creation and maintenance of intense and diverse patterns of interaction and control between formerly separate social spaces" (Lee 2009, 398).…”

This article analyses the process of spatial integration in ten European cross-border metropolitan regions by comparing three indicators, relating to flows of cross-border commuters, differentials of gross domestic product per capita and residents' citizenship. Our results allow, firstly, confirmation of the hypothesis that the greater the economic disparities, the greater the level of interactions measured by cross-border commuting. Our work also allows confirmation of the hypothesis that strong economic interactions have an impact on the cross-border integration of communities, measured by the proportion of residents based on the other side of the border. Finally, this article leads to a typology based on three models of cross-border integration being proposed: by specialization, by polarization and by osmosis.

“…In the context of southern Europe, they have argued that alongside the ESDP, INTERREG has generated changes in the domestic patterns of spatial planning and regional policies, both in terms of approaches and of institutional capacity (Janin Rivolin, 2003;Böhme et al, 2004;Giannakourou, 2005;Pedrazzini, 2005;Janin Rivolin & Faludi, 2005). In the North Sea region, Dabinett and Richardson (2005) and Dabinett (2006) suggest that INTERREG has contributed to the diffusion of spatial ideas such as polycentric development. However, to date only two studies have attempted to conceptualize the learning processes at stake in INTERREG projects (Böhme et al, 2003;Lähteenmäki-Smith & Dubois, 2006).…”

“…Existing research tends to suggest that INTERREG has contributed to the emergence of transnational spatial planning practices and the diffusion of certain spatial ideas across European regions (Janin Rivolin, 2003;Pedrazzini, 2005;Giannakourou, 2005;Dabinett & Richardson, 2005;Dabinett, 2006), thereby contributing to the 'Europeanization of spatial planning'. However, very few studies have actually proposed a concrete methodological approach to substantiate this claim with empirical evidence.…”

“…In other words, for some groups of citizens, transport and communications infrastructures are designed, and urban and regional maps are drawn to fit with the planners' and policy-makers' imaginaries of how these particular groups of citizens will want to move in time and space. Looking at European corridors, this entails a rescaling of levels of governance and of what can be thought of as urban (Brenner, 2004;Dabinett and Richardson, 2005).…”

This paper investigates the changing relations between citizens and Europe's internal borders by seeing these relations as objects of governmentality of mobilities. It focuses on the particular discursive space of one transnational 'corridor in the making', studying how, through practices of visioning and strategy-making, governmental actors make new transnational governmental territories by breathing life into the imagined mobile subjects of these future territories. These mobile subjects play a central part in the politics of emergent transnational governmentalities and in legitimising potential border-crossing infrastructures. In a case study of the COINCO project (Corridor of Innovation and Co-operation), linking Oslo, Gothenburg, Copenhagen, Malmö and Berlin, it is shown how deconstructing imagined mobile subjects reveals the will to power over mobility and sheds light on how governmental practices are remaking European borders.
