This paper examines the relations (especially economic and social) that were established after the end of the Second World War in a region divided by national borders. Defining the border in an area inhabited by a population that identified itself ethnically and linguistically differently, was extremely complex. Changing political circumstances or regimes have ulteriorly complicated the situation. The question was therefore not only the one of survival on a everyday level, but also of adapting to the new political circumstances.
The paper, which primarily dealt with everyday survival strategies and experiences in the border area, showed one perspective or approach to studying the topic. The central question was how the borderline, which physically and ideologically divided the space, affected the local population along the Yugoslav-Italian border in Istria. The research focused on the population on the eastern side of the former border. In order to gain a broader and better understanding of the relations and interactions between the inhabitants of the border area, similar research should be carried out with the population on the western side of the then »new« border.
