Eurolimes – End of the Road or a Necessary Reset
Eurolimes – End of the Road or a Necessary Reset

Summary/Abstract: On the 15th anniversary of the first issue of Eurolimes and 30 issues, we aim, on one hand, to make a retrospection of the conception and direction of research of the authors that have published in the journal. Thus, these have evolved from a balanced optimism – specific of the years before the European economic boom and the ending of Enlargement – to a moderate optimism – developed in the context of economic crisis and the period after (2012–2019). On the other hand, in recent years and particularly, in the context of Crimea annexation and the war in Donbas, the refugees‟ crisis and the assault on the EU external borders, it can be noticed a slight shift to pessimism in approaching the issue of European borders. The pessimistic approach is increasing in the last 2 years with the effects of pandemic crisis on the internal and external borders and we are in the situation to ask is our perspective about EU borders is at the end of the road or to keep still an optimistic perspective, our approach must be reset.
