New Eastern Europe Magazine 1 (I) - 2011 Edición anterior

Europe With(out) Borders

The very first issue of New Eastern Europe examines the meaning of Eastern Europe from various perspectives. Martin Pollack provides a critical view of how Western Europeans imagine the borders to their East, even if some of them have already disappeared. Filip Florian contemplates Romanian intellectuals’ role in Europe and what real changes have occurred as a result of its membership in the European Union. Vesna Goldsworthy shares her experiences and reflections as she returns to her native Balkan region. Olena Betliy draws from the writings of Havel, Miłosz, and Konrád in her question to answer the question as to whether the countries of Eastern Europe are truly free.
Kataryzna Pełczyńska-Nałęcz analyses the limitations of the Eastern Parntership, while Damon Wilson, of the Atlantic Council, discusses security in Eastern Europe and calls the Eastern Partnership, “the best chance for changing the debate about Eastern Europe”.

These and other interesting texts, including book, film and art reviews are also found in the issue.
