Abstract: „Increasing processes of globalization, which reach people’s everyday life more and more, make new and individual scopes of action possible and real. The latter bring about configurations of the social and territorial dimensions of human action which break up the traditional comprehension of societal spaces. The concept of the transnational social space is helpful to overcome the unity of territorial and social space and to study social figurations anchored in different national states. The present article aims at the specific context of border regions, respectively crossborder labour markets, with special focus on the construction of a transnational social space. Hence, following the social geography centred on subjects and actions, some conditions and impacts of the cross-border commuter phenomenon in the Greater Region SaarLorLux, widely based on the empiric research of the author, will be discussed.“

Abstract: „Along the Dutch-Belgian and Dutch-German border a new and interesting kind of transmigration is developing, that is migration over only a few kilometres across the border. The main characteristic of these Dutch short-distance transmigrants is that they have their houses in Belgium/Germany, but their social and working life still takes place in the Netherlands. Their transmigration is hence very elastic. This elasticity invokes the interesting question: what kind of (trans)national identity these Dutch are displaying and to what extent the Dutch desire to be and/or are socially provoked to be integrated in the neighbouring Belgian/German society. These cross-border spaces in which the short-distance migrants have their residences could very well be interesting micro-scale laboratories of the future of the nation-state in the European Union.“

Abstract: „Parts of Belgium, France, Germany and Luxembourg which comprise the Great Region have witnessed an increase in the mobility of workers and in the degree of political collaboration. Nevertheless, this evolution does not seem to have had an impact on the consumption habits of workers who tend to remain quite different in Arlon, Luxembourg and Metz. In contrast, people with less mobility but more time available, such as the retired and young, seem to exhibit the same pattern of consumption.“

Abstract: „This article addresses the European Union's claim to establish transnational spaces through co-operation across its internal borders. Focusing on the Dutch–German borderland as an example, people's practices towards this border and their perceptions of it are introduced. It is underscored that these practices are influenced by popular representations, which (re)produce bounded spaces and the barrier effect of the border, thus making it difficult to imagine a transnational space. This observation is complemented by the phenomenon that—due to a housing shortage in the Netherlands—Dutch people have recently begun to move to German places directly on the border, although they maintain their jobs in the Netherlands. Concentrating specifically on one of these German villages, Kranenburg, the emergence of a community of transmigrants is highlighted in order to reflect upon the question of whether this form of frequent short-distance border crossing fosters a European transnational sphere.“

Abstract: „This contribution elaborates on European Union (E.U.) geopolitical discourses, which attempt to overcome the ‘insignificance’ of state‐borders through the establishment of cross‐border regions. Drawing on the nonexisting Dutch‐German transnational labor market as an example, the observed ‘non‐practice’ of border crossing is introduced. ‘Significant boundaries’ and their meanings, on the other hand, are constructed by narratives and images that are not only representations, but also actively shape people's everyday life. The effects of these boundary narratives are analyzed in terms of ‘cognitive distance’, defined both as the creation of a barrier effect and the ignorance of what lies beyond, expressed as a boundary in people's minds.“
