The Evolution of the Palestinian Diaspora in Germany
The Palestinian diaspora primarily originated with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; before 1948, Palestinians did not leave the country in significant numbers. As a result of the conflict, huge waves of people left the Palestinian Territory, especially in 1948 and, to a lesser extent, also in 1967. Even though Palestinian communities were established throughout Western Europe and the United States as a result of this emigration, the majority live in the Arab countries (Di Bartolomeo, Jaulin, & Perrin, 2011).

Summary/Abstract |
Recent geopolitical changes and the strengthening of the security/economy nexus have multiplied the types and functions of territorial borders in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR). These borders have been insufficiently addressed in previous research even though macro-regions cross over multiple borders, which are highly affected by geopolitical events and conflicts. This paper contributes to the debate about multiple borders with particular emphasis on the question how de- and re-bordering affect the regionalisation process in practice and how it influences the cooperation within the BSR. The results, which are based on a discourse analysis of a corpus of documents, show that the region-building process in the BSR itself creates new borders, which define the level of the member state’s political participation in the region. The governance of macro-regions would benefit from the development of such analytical frameworks that take into account the impact of the multitude of borders on the practical level.
