• Description:
  Changes in Central and Eastern Europe have an impact on regional devel-opment in border areas and on cross-national cooperation in favour of these areas. The German-Polish border area illustrates the complexity of regional (re)development, which is related to the interplay between endogenous regional forces and external influences. This paper discusses the German-Polish border area with regard to its adaptability to post-revolutionary socio-economic processes. At the same time it pays attention to the influence of local, regional and national authorities. Finally, it discusses some develop-ment opportunities on the basis of the `Oderlandplan'. We may conclude that the context for regional development in the Polish-German border region is not unfavourable.
