Eurasianism has proved to be an unexpectedly diverse and highly self-reflexive concept. By transforming the way we describe the Eurasian landmass, it also resignifies our field of studies and its disciplinary boundaries. In this process, Eurasianism itself is subject to a constant resignification. The present volume builds on this notion while pursuing an innovative approach ...

Korneev O., Geddes A., , in: Handbook of the International Political Economy of Migration.: Cheltenham: Edward Elgar Publishing, 2015. P. 54–73.
The chapter develops an approach that has two key elements. The first is a focus on states as the key locations for the regulation of migration. However, rather than seeing international migration as a challenge to these states (as some kind of external threat or challenge), this chapter explores the ways in which states, relationships ...

This study pursues two main objectives—to identify the optimal method for estimating the permeability of a border between divided cities; and to assess the connectivity of three settlement areas on the Moldovan-Transnistria border (Bender—Varnița, Dubossary—Corjova—Cocieri, and Rybnitsa—Rezina). Using the dichotomy of “debordering” and “rebordering”, an attempt was made to identify whether the Moldovan-Transnistrian border is ...

In this regard, Soviet Armenian statesman, Anastas Ivanovich Mikoyan, a close Khrushchev ally, played an indispensable role in shaping and defining the nationality policy during the crucial years following the ...

Korneev O., Weinar A., Makaryan S. et al., / Series Migration Policy Centre Research Report "RSC Research Reports". 2012. No. 1.
This report asks one overarching question: “What impact would liberalisation of the visa regime
produce on actual migratory movements between Ukraine and Moldova, and the EU?”. Therefore, we
are not interested in assessing the mobility of tourists, but rather of migrants who work in the EU. This
gives our study a specific perspective that looks at the Schengen ...
