Abstract

The article shows the phenomenon of cities divided by a state border. The multidimensionality of this issue makes the authors not only try to systematize definitions such as „divided cities”, „twin cities” or „paired cities”, „city-pair”, but also to show the politological, sociological, economic or anthropological interdisciplinarity of this phenomenon. The article presents the origin and typology of divided cities in Central and Eastern Europe, the conditions of their debordering, and limitations hindering the processes of reintegration of mentioned cities in formal, legal, cultural, ideological, economic, social or infrastructural aspect.

Keywords:

divided cities, border, debordering, cross-border cooperation, double cities, integration, reintegration
