The research had two goals. First, it sought to establish the impact of Slovenia’s accession to the Schengen area on the people living on both sides of the border. Second, it aimed to explore new opportunities and the untapped potential arising from the abolition of border controls on the Slovene-Italian border. Data was collected in a survey.
