More DescriptionThese proceedings are the result of a symposion that has been organised for three motives: The European Union's eastern enlargement had started ten years before, and it was interesting to look at its effects from a geographical perspective.

A second motive was the completion of the Atlas of Eastern and Southeastern Europe, a long-term project from 1989 to 2014.
