Abstract:
Border and administrative divisions usually have considerable severe impacts on the economic growth and sustainable management of natural and human on both sides of the border. Schengen border regions mostly perform less well economically in comparison to non-border regions, and the citizens and businesses are facing all sorts of barriers on a day-to-day basis when crossing EU Schengen borders. Therefore, the research is focused on the resilience of the frontier areas of Slovakia and Ukraine, both experiencing rising out-migration, demographic ageing and, therefore, less resistance to threats. The proposed Regional Resilience Index (RRI) is based on three resilience capacity domains: (1) The entrepreneurial domain containing partial indicators of industrial diversity, entrepreneurial activity, unemployment and the possibilities to save money; (2) the socio-demographic domain, whose partial indicators are ageing and the health status of the population, and (3) the domain of interconnectedness of communities with its partial indicators of public infrastructure and settlement stability. By calculating RRI, the overall resilience capacity of the monitored districts of Slovakia and Ukraine is estimated. The index shows that the border factor is significant in explaining the differences in each of the index’s three domains. In addition, migration for work is shown to be a key factor increasing vulnerability and is therefore studied in more detail. The prediction and evaluation of risks associated with strategic and territorial planning is a necessary approach in relation to extraordinary events and minimization of consequences.

Abstract:
AbstractThe resilience of a region may affect how it reacts to economic crises and exogenous shocks. In a complex study, it is not sufficient merely to have knowledge of all the macro-indices of the regions, but it is also necessary to study internal micro-structures. This study introduces the regional homogeneity index, using a novel approach and as yet unused indicators by means of the example of two neighbouring NUTS 2 statistical regions. The results can be useful for understanding the regions’ economic development. The methodology and indicators created may also be suitable for European regional pilot research projects.1

Abstract:
Abstract TPPA faced turbulence and uncertainty among its members when the newly-elected President of the United States, Mr. Donald Trumps abandoned the trade deal. Now, the so-called TPP11 or TPP 12 minus one becomes talk of the town especially to the remaining countries with hopes that the trade deal can be salvage and turn into a reality. Malaysia has another option to rely on in case the trade deal faced the dead end. This paper discuss the possible steps and mitigations for Malaysia and also local SMEs in dealing with the future of TPP11 with the alternative economic deal such as Asean Economic Community (AEC) and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP). Local SMEs can enhance their products and services by focusing on domestic market as well as looking for opportunity in the international market as another way to survive in the red ocean market. The introduction of the Digital Free Trade Zone (DFTZ) creates another opportunity for Malaysian SMEs to optimise the emerging growth of the Internet economy and cross border e-commerce activities. In addition, the DFTZ would enhanced local SMEs in terms of export capabilities in the digital market particularly with China. Local SMEs should remain proactive, resilience and versatile in facing the world’s economic uncertainty particularly the TPP for the sustainability of their business livelihood. Thus, this paper will review the next step for Malaysian SMEs in dealing with the uncertain future of the TPPA minus 1.

ABSTRACTSThis study aimed to determined the implementation, constraints and assesed the impact of the cabotage principle and sea toll program on regional resilience in Anambas until the beginning of 2019. Archipelagic districts that had 238 islands in the border region needed ships to supported the development of other sectors and connectivity of disadvantaged, remote, outermost, and border areas (3TP).This study used qualitative descriptive methods in the form of maps, tables and graphs. Data was obtained through observation, in-depth interviews and documentation in Tarempa, Matak Base, sea toll vessels and the Directorate of Sea Traffic and Freight, including literature studies and internet data. The result of this studi showed that cabotage principle succeeded in increasing the number of national commercial fleets fivefold since 2005-2018. The upstream oil and gas company at Anambas complied with cabotage and was not subject to operational disruption.The existence of national ships in Indonesian waters contributed to the aspect of defense security as a source of information. The implementation of the sea toll route to Anambas until the fourth year had not succeeded in reducing the price of goods but maintaining the stock of logistics, especially during extreme weather, supporting food security. Cabotage was important for economies and defense security meanwhile sea tolls contributed to inter-regional connectivity to supported the development of remote, frontier, disadvantaged and borderareas (3TP). Both were encouraging national sea freight to dominated the domestic market share.ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui implementasi, kendala dan mengkaji dampak implementasi asas cabotage dan program tol laut terhadap ketahanan wilayah di Anambas hingga awal tahun 2019. Kabupaten kepulauan yang memiliki 238 pulau di wilayah perbatasan membutuhkankapal untuk menunjang pembangunan sektor lain dan konektivitas daerah tertinggal, terpencil, terluar, dan perbatasan (3TP).Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif dalam bentuk peta, tabel dan grafik. Data diperoleh melalui observasi, wawancara mendalam dan dokumentasi di Tarempa, Matak Base, kapal tol laut dan Direktorat Lalu Lintas Angkutan Laut dilengkapi studi pustaka dan data internet.Hasil penelitian menunjukkan implementasi asas cabotage berhasil meningkatkan jumlah armada niaga nasional 356 persen pada tahun 2005-2018. Perusahaan hulu migas di Anambas mematuhi cabotage dan tidak terganggu operasionalnya. Keberadaan kapal nasional di perairan Indonesia mendukung aspek pertahanan dan keamanan sebagai salah satu sumber informasi. Implementasi tol laut trayek Anambas hingga awal tahun 2019 belum berhasil menurunkan harga barang tetapi menjaga stok logistik terutama saat cuaca ekstrim, mendukung ketahanan pangan. Cabotage penting bagi perkonomian dan pertahanan keamanan di laut sedangkan tol laut berkontribusi pada konektivitas antarwilayah mendukung pembangunan daerah 3TP. Keduanya mendorong kapal nasional mendominasi angkutan laut dalam negeri.

AbstractIntroductionThis research aimed to learn from the experiences of leaders of well-developed, disaster preparedness-focused health care coalitions (HCCs), both the challenges and the successes, for the purposes of identifying common areas for improvement and sharing “promising practices.”Hypothesis/ProblemLittle data have been collected regarding the successes and challenges of disaster preparedness-focused HCCs in augmenting health care system preparedness for disasters.MethodsSemi-structured interviews were conducted with a sample of nine HCC leaders. Transcripts were analyzed qualitatively.ResultsThe commonly noted benefits of HCCs were: community-wide and regional partnership building, providing an impartial forum for capacity building, sharing of education and training opportunities, staff- and resource-sharing, incentivizing the participation of clinical partners in preparedness activities, better communication with the public, and the ability to surge. Frequently noted challenges included: stakeholder engagement, staffing, funding, rural needs, cross-border partnerships, education and training, and grant requirements. Promising practices addressed: stakeholder engagement, communicating value and purpose, simplifying processes, formalizing connections, and incentivizing participation.ConclusionsStrengthening HCCs and their underlying systems could lead to improved national resilience to disasters. However, despite many successes, coalition leaders are faced with obstacles that may preclude optimal system functioning. Additional research could: provide further insight regarding the benefit of HCCs to local communities, uncover obstacles that prohibit local disaster-response capacity building, and identify opportunities for an improved system capacity to respond to, and recover from, disasters.WalshL, CraddockH, GulleyK, Strauss-RiggsK, SchorKW.

Abstract:
The 2004 South-East Asia earthquake and tsunami as well as the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquakes and tsunamis caused the greatest economic losses and challenged the continuity of business operations across the continents. Thereafter, regions most at risk when the 2016 Kaohsiung earthquake shook an electronics hub in Southern Taiwan, where lies at the heart of Apple’s supply chain. The large-scale disasters demonstrate the fragility of supply chains and the importance of enhancing disaster resilience through innovative technology and keen collaboration on information sharing/dissemination, resources allocations and risks communication/awareness across borders. With review of the global and regional lessons learn from the large-scale disasters, the increasing threats from devastating earthquakes and extreme weather call for the actions to enhance economic security. Base on the practical experience of DRR project implementations in decades, APEC identifies several key factors to promote disaster resilience in business sectors while the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction (SFDRR) declared to promote the disaster risk governance and encourages innovation, science and technology DRR approaches on raising the risk awareness and level of preparedness. At regional level of disaster risk management, empowering the cross-cutting collaborations on science and technology as well as enabling the inter-disciplinary information intelligence platform for communications are keys to resilient society and human well-being. This paper aims to identify conceptual model for enhancing regional resilience and connectivity through public-private partnership. The country-level case studies and comprehensive regional reviews for promoting inclusive and disaster resilient development will be cover.

Abstract:
In line with the EU2020 strategy, sustainable development has been a high priority in the EU. Implementing a sustainable strategy in any organization is a complex, value-based multi-dimensional process where sustainability is translated and adapted in the regional context. Implementation of a sustainability strategy requires defining a vision, developing sustainable strategies, assessing the current state of arts, monitoring the process and providing the platform for all actors involved to implement the vision.The aim of the article is to offer a conceptual basis for building a sustainable strategy in the state border guard organization. This involves rethinking, repositioning the current strategy and formulating a future-oriented perspective in order to enhance awareness of the complexity, accept the dynamic nature of corporate sustainability and to adopt a proactive behavior towards sustainability issues. The paper presents a case study on challenges that the State Border Guard organization is facing for implementing a sustainability strategy. The research study presents a qualitative study for a deeper understanding of the process of conceptualizing and implementing a sustainability strategy in Latgale region. The methodology employed in the study is semi-structured interviews with the representatives of administration on the process and the challenges of implementing sustainability strategy.

Abstract:
When the COVID-19 pandemic hit Europe in the beginning of 2020, a majority of countries reacted by closing their state borders. By drawing on concepts of border studies and border regional resilience, this thesis aims to examine the impact of the (im)mobility shock caused by the pandemic on two border twin cities in Europe. Through a qualitative approach, conducting semi-structured expert interviews and content analyses, the thesis attempts to identify (1) Which factors facilitated/obstructed the coping/adapting strategies to the problems caused by the pandemic induced state border closures; and (2) Which long-term effects the COVID-19 crisis will have on the future development of the border twin cities and whether their development path will transform into a more resilient one. The main finding of this thesis is that the crisis management on the local level was considerably limited by the restrictions enacted at the national level. To be better prepared for similar shocks, the border twin cities have already made plans based on their experience. However, it remains to be seen whether these strategies can contribute to the resilience of the cities. Nevertheless, coordination between the local, regional and national level is essential to plan and establish resilient border twin cities.

Abstract:
This book presents the history of southern Iberia and the western Maghrib, and the Strait of Gibraltar between them, as a single bicontinental borderland, from roughly 1850 to 1970. Drawing on primary and secondary sources from several countries, it posits a long historical arc of transformation from a remote and hostile religious frontier into a multilaterally managed regional order. By the nineteenth century, the Strait of Gibraltar was becoming a dynamic focus of imperial positioning, migration, brigandage, and exchange. As a consequence, coastal outposts like Tangier, Gibraltar, and Melilla became centers of an emerging bicontinental society bringing together a kaleidoscope of ethno-religious groups. These developments produced conflict but also drew sovereign powers together to confront common challenges, such as controlling epidemic disease, defeating warlords, and managing borders. Thus, over the course of a century, despite periods of considerable violence, an international order gradually emerged in the western Mediterranean. As European empire withdrew in the late twentieth century, the region did not revert to the hostile frontier of earlier times but inherited the legacy of a relatively stable and resilient regional order. Conceptualizing the borderland in this way provides a single transnational framework to explore connections between Mediterranean geopolitics, colonialism, border formation, smuggling and brigandage, and the civil and international violence of the twentieth century. It also addresses the role of mobility in international relations, the dynamics of Muslim-Jewish relations in the context of European empire, and the ongoing controversies over Gibraltar, Ceuta, and Melilla.

Abstract:
This book examines the complexities of Fannie Barrier Williams's life and how she developed intellectual insights into the intersectionality of privilege, race, labor, and gender by crossing regional borders. It explores how Barrier Williams's emergence as an activist influenced the Progressive Era, the women's club movement, the social and economic impact of industrialization on the black community, and the contours of the challenges to racism and discrimination. It shows how Barrier Williams successfully navigated between black and white worlds by gaining a reputation among blacks as a champion of black rights and among whites as a resilient and cooperative leader. It also considers how Barrier Williams' progressive accomplishments in Chicago and her personal connections in both the Northeast and the South endeared her to the national community of black women. The book argues that Barrier Williams' cross-regional mobility enabled her to determine how she lived, as well as the ways she engaged with the black and white communities and how she formulated her ideas.

AbstractThe Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), while primarily a security organisation, has always included economic and human baskets or dimensions. Currently, the Office of the Co-ordinator of OSCE Economic and Environmental Activities operates in four main areas: (1) good governance and anti-corruption, (2) money laundering and financing of terrorism, (3) transport, trade and border-crossing facilitation, and (4) labour migration. This chapter addresses developments in Central Asia since the dissolution of the Soviet Union that are relevant to the third area of OSCE operations. The chapter’s focus is on the potential for the landlocked Central Asian countries to become land-linked, using improved transport connections between East Asia and Europe to promote economic development through export diversification and growth. Rail services across Central Asia improved considerably during the 2010s. They have been resilient, despite strained political relations between Russia and the EU since 2014, and rail traffic between Europe and China continued to increase in 2020 despite the shock of COVID-19. Further infrastructure improvements are promised under China’s Belt and Road Initiative. However, the expanded network has been little used by Central Asian producers to create new international trade, and the improved infrastructure represents a potential opportunity rather than a past benefit. If the Central Asian economies are successful in taking advantage of the opportunity, it will stimulate their trade across the Eurasian region and help economic diversification. The main determinant of success will be national policies and national economic development. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the role of multilateral institutions and, in particular, the prospects for OSCE collaboration with existing fora to promote cooperation and economic development in Central Asia.

Abstract:
Health commodity supply chains are vital to a well-functioning health system and advancing national and regional health security goals. This study describes impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on these chains, learnings from it and the challenges faced by countries. It also provides futuristic strategic recommendations for the building of the supply chain to manage the impacts and guide pandemic responsiveness. We used the PRISMA guideline for systematic review to collate relevant information from both published and unpublished literature. Out of 622 screened records, 38 were included in the review. Major impacts were innovation, collaboration, increased technology, research and development, increased prices and shortage of health products, depletion of supply chain personnel. Challenges were lack of visibility, coordination, resilience and strategy for pandemics, potential substandard medicines epidemic, travel restrictions and inadequate scientific knowledge. The studies recommended increased local production and resilience of supply chains. The pandemic disrupted national and international supply chain systems of medical devices, essential medicines and pharmaceutical products due to border closures, transportation and international trade restrictions. It however exposed hidden potentials in Sub-Saharan Africa. There is need to develop supply chain strategy for emergencies, increase local production and talent pool for supply chain management particularly in Africa.

Abstract:
Arid lands throughout the world are often degraded or increasingly at risk of degradation. These lands, including those at the border of arid regions, commonly exhibit accelerated soil erosion, losses of productivity, and impaired economic potential to support human populations. Human history is replete with the collapse of great civilizations of the hot and dry subtropics that suffered severe soil resource depletions in their midst or at their margins. Given that over 1 billion people currently inhabit the arid lands of the world, it is critical that we have the knowledge and resulting technologies to mitigate our impacts and improve environmental conditions of these lands and their resources. This book describes our understanding of basic processes of arid ecosystems resulting from nearly a century of research in one desert locale, the Jornada Basin of southern New Mexico. Much of our understanding comes from both extensive and intensive studies in a landscape that has drastically changed over that time. The loss of ecological, economic, and social capital is called “desertification” (Dregne et al. 1991). The 1992 United Nations Desertification Convention defined desertification as “land degradation in arid, semiarid and dry subhumid areas resulting from various factors, including climatic variations and human activities.” In the future, we can expect that the shifting border between arid and semiarid lands will be one of the most sensitive indicators of global change. Desertification involves human and environmental drivers of change but is a regional symptom that emerges from degradation at finer spatial scales (Reynolds and Stafford Smith 2002). Desertification does not describe cyclic phenomena, as when decadal variations of precipitation lead to periods of drought and to losses of vegetation cover that are fully restored when rains return (Tucker et al. 1994). An updated and revised desertification paradigm has been developed by Reynolds et al. (2003; table 1-1). An important feature of this conceptual model is that both biophysical and socioeconomic factors are jointly involved in desertification. This paradigm clearly recognizes critical points, or thresholds, in system dynamics, yet these points may be manageable for increasing system resilience.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the fate of trans-Gibraltar region during Spanish Civil War and the early stages of World War II. Although the insurgent army of Francisco Franco quickly took control of northern Morocco and southern Spain and invited its Nazi and Fascist allies to the strategically crucial region, the Entente order of 1904 proved resilient. New evidence is introduced detailing the Franco movement’s success in marshaling anti-French, anti-Semitic, and pro-German sentiments to recruit Muslim support, promising the construction of a new Hispano-Moroccan bulwark in the western Mediterranean. Other new documents indicate how quickly this enthusiasm cooled, however, as it became clear that Nazi agents were preparing to seize a position in northwest Africa without giving consideration for Spanish interests, while the British and much of the Jewish community of Tangier remained supportive of Spanish interests in Morocco.

Abstract:
The benefits of crossborder cooperation for regional development have been widely accepted. The progress towards open borders and increased interaction across the border is, thus, seen as a beneficial process for crossborder regions. This process does not, however, proceed in a linear fashion from low to high crossborder integration. Rather, at times the barrier effect of the border is decreased (debordering) and at times increased (rebordering). These changes in the permeability of the border are many times caused by external shocks. However, the crossborder regions need to find ways to cope with these external shocks in order to maintain their current level or to transform themselves into a higher level of crossborder cooperation. This discussion resonates with the concept of regional resilience. Here the concept is applied in a crossborder context to formally define a novel approach, namely crossborder regional resilience, to address the issues of: 1) how resilient are crossborder regions against rebordering and 2) how robust are crossborder cooperation networks against failures in crossborder connectivity. Existing empirical studies along the Finnish Russian border point towards a conclusion that crossborder cooperation in the area is not particularly vulnerable to network failures and that regional actors are constantly trying to cope with recent debordering developments to maintain crossborder cooperation. These findings and the discussion on the theoretical backgrounds of the concept point towards a promising avenue for further research. The issue has also started to attract the attention of policymakers, which further underlines the topicality of addressing resilience in crossborder contexts.

<p>This paper introduces the seismic design conducted for the railway viaducts in a highly seismic region in Metro Manila, Philippines, in accordance with the local bridge seismic design standard (DPWH-BSDS, 2013), AASHTO Guide Specifications for Load Resistance Factor Design Seismic Bridge Design (LRFD-S) and the Japanese Seismic Design Standard for Railway Structures and Commentary (JDSRS) for making reference to the anti-derailment check under Level 1 Earthquakes (1:100 return period).</p><p>The authors concluded that for level 1 earthquakes the seismic design for short piers (h&lt;10m) and piers located in stiff soils, the seismic design was governed by the DPWH-BSDS and AASHTO LRFD-S due to its larger seismic coefficient for structures with short natural periods. Therefore, the initial structural sizes, reinforcement arrangement and number of piles did not need to be modified. On the other hand however, tall piers (h&gt;10m) located in soft soils, the design is governed by the JDSRS due to its stipulated larger seismic coefficients for structures with a longer natural periods. In this regard, in order to limit the transverse natural period requirements of the JDSRS as part of the anti-derailment check, the sub-structural members needed to be increased in size by approximately 20% - 50%, re-arrange the pier steel reinforcement, and to increase the number of bored piles.</p>

Abstract:
The Nordic thematic group for innovative and resilient regions 2017–2020 (TG2) was established by the Nordic Council of Ministers and is a part of the Nordic Co-operation Programme for Regional Development and Planning 2017–2020. Three Nordicthematic groups were established for the four-year period: Innovative and resilient regions, Sustainable rural development, and Sustainable cities and urban development. The thematic groups have been organised under the Nordic Council of Ministers’ Committee of Civil Servants for Regional Affairs, and Nordregio has acted as the secretariat for the thematic groups. This report summarises the work and results of the Nordic thematic group for innovative and resilient regions (TG2) in 2017–2020. The thematic group has not only produced high-quality research on innovative and resilient regions in the Nordic countries but also contributed to public policy with the latest knowledge on the creation and development of innovative and resilient regions across the nordic countries, with focus on smart specialisation, digitalisation, regional resilience, and skills policies. TG2 has also contributed to research on innovative and resilient regions in the Nordic cross-border context.

Abstract:
Re-building cross-border collaboration will be vital after the COVID-19 crisis to secure resilient border communities and Nordic collaboration. The measures to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus were disproportionally damaging for border communities. Healing the wounds inflicted on society, business and institutions demand coordinated actions at local, national, and Nordic levels. This policy brief gives a brief overview of the impact of border restrictions on border communities during the first nine months of the COVID-19 pandemic. The social and economic implications of closed borders have exposed the fragility of Nordic co-operation. The ability of border areas to exist side-by-side in an integrated, seamless way corresponds to the Nordic vision of being the most integrated region in the world, but the situation that unfolded shows a different story.
