Abstract: „This article deals with border-crossing and the experiences of “temporal otherness” of residential migrants who move their home from Luxembourg to the German side of the River Moselle. Research on temporal borders is highly influenced by a particular spatio-political relation: the West creating its underdeveloped other and coping with this other by controlling border-crossing, which in turn results in maintaining the idea of the other’s temporal remoteness. The Luxembourgish–German border region offers a complement to this perspective; here, one encounters migrants who move in the opposite temporal direction and appreciate certain forms of “being behind” in their new place of residence. These migrants must cope with divergences, i.e., with the fact that economic and socio-cultural conditions within their new socio-spatial universe, the cross-border region, have evolved differently. This article argues that the analysis of migrants’ memories is illuminating with respect to the question of the moral legitimacy of moving, and thus regarding the conception and everyday construction of cross-border communities. It sheds light on the fact that borderland research—by focusing on national differences and related conceptions of cross-border mobility and exchange—tends to ignore borderlanders’ notions of (regional) unity and related claims for convergence.“

Abstract: „Die Schengener Abkommen haben viele europäische Grenzen geöffnet und Grenzkontrollen verschwinden lassen. Der Effekt dieser Öffnung lässt sich besonders gut am Beispiel des deutsch-luxemburgischen Grenzraums beleuchten. Dort haben die nationalstaatlichen Grenzen ihre trennende Wirkung weitgehend eingebüßt, was sich u.a. in der sehr ausgeprägten Alltags- und Wohnmobilität widerspiegelt. Der Beitrag zeigt, dass die vielfältigen grenzüberschreitenden Praktiken die nationalen Grenzen zwar relativiert haben, diese aber in Form neuer Grenzziehungen fortbestehen. Dieser Zusammenhang von Aulösung und gleichzeitigem Fortbestand, wie er in der Denkigur der Phantomgrenze prgnant gefasst wird, soll am Beispiel der grenzüberschreitenden Wohnmigration untersucht werden. Die Zahl der Luxemburger, die ihren Wohnsitz in die deutschen Bundesländer Saarland und Rheinland-Pfalz verlagern, ist in den vergangenen Jahren deutlich gestiegen. Der Beitrag basiert auf Daten aus vier im saarländischen und rheinland-pfälzischen Grenzraum durchgeführten empirischen Studien, die sich auf methodisch unterschiedliche Art und Weise mit dieser Entwicklung befassen. Die Ergebnisse stimmen grundlegend darin überein, dass die massive Wohnmigration sowohl auf lokaler als auch auf regionaler Ebene neue räumliche Differenzierungen und soziale Grenzziehungen mit sich gebracht hat. Diese materialisieren und manifestieren sich in unterschiedlicher Weise: verkehrsgünstige vs. verkehrsungünstige Lage von Gemeinden, Neubaugebiete vs. Ortskerne, Autochthone vs. Allochthone, Luxemburger vs. Nicht-Luxemburger. In allen diesen Abgrenzungsvorgängen kommt die Persistenz nationaler Ordnungskategorien zum Ausdruck, und sie weisen somit auf das phantomhafte Fortbestehen der territorialen Grenzen im Allgemeinen sowie auf eine klare Inkongruenz von territorialen Grenzen und sozialen Grenzziehungen im Kontext von Wohnmigration im Besonderen hin. The Schengen Agreement have opened many European borders and allowed border controls to virtually disappear. The effect of this opening can be illustrated especially well with the example of the German-Luxembourgish border region. Here, national borders have largely lost their dividing effect, which is relected, amongst other things, in the very intensive daily mobility and residential mobility. This article shows that the diversity of the cross-border practices has relativised the national borders, which, however, persist in the form of new demarcations. This relationship of dissolvement and simultaneous continuity, as it is concisely described with the igure of thought phantom borders, will be examined by using example of cross-border residential migration. The number of Luxembourgers who recolate their residence to the German federal states of Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate has risen signiicantly in recent years. This article is based on data from four different empirical studies, which, using a variety of methods, were concerned with the developments of residential mobility in the border regions of Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate. The results are fundamentally in agreement that the massive residential migration has brought with it spatial differentiations and social demarcations on a local as well as on a regional level. These materialise and manifest themselves in different ways: easily accessible by public or private transport vs. not easily accessible; new residential developments vs. town and village centres, autochthonous vs. allochthonous, Luxembourgers vs. non-Luxembourgers. In all of these demarcation processes, the persistence of national categories is expressed, and they thus refer to the phantom-like continuity of territorial borders in general, as well as a clear incongruity of territorial borders and social demarcations in the context of residential migration in particular.“

Abstract: „Studies on the connection between migration and urbanity are usually concerned with conditions and developments in cities. The presence of ‘urbanity’ in rural space is the topic of the present contribution. It will be discussed using the example of residential migration in the Greater Region SaarLorLux. The massive influx of residential migrants from Luxembourg into the border regions of the neighbouring countries is a relatively recent phenomenon, the main cause of which lies in the developments in the real-estate market in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. This phenomenon is of special interest for the topic of migration in rural areas in two regards: because of the important demographic changes produced by the residential migrants in individual border villages and because of the complex composition of the group of residential migrants, which is extremely differentiated regarding the dimension rural—urban. Central to the article is the question, whether urban attitudes and practices become visible in German border villages, and, if so, how the migratory movement from Luxembourg influences this ‘rural urbanity’. Furthermore, taking the everyday practices of the residential migrants as starting point, it asks in how far the dichotomy urbanity—rurality presents a conceptual approach for the examination of individual and structural integration processes.“
