MIGRATION IN THE CONTEXT OF GLOBALISATION. SOCIAL ASPECTS AND DIFFICULTIES IN THE BIHAR-HAJDU BIHAR BORDER AREA

Summary/Abstract: The article starts from a diagnostic study carried out by the Department of Sociology and Social Assistance in 2020, regarding the phenomenon of migration in the Bihor - Hajdu-Bihar cross-border region. The research that is the basis of this article is a group interview conducted with people in high positions of the institutions involved in the management of the phenomenon of migration at the western border of Romania. From this research, data was obtained related to a series of problems that appear as a result of efforts to secure the border: the situation of illegal migration and human trafficking in the cross-border area; the situation of cross-border transit; social phenomena involved in the cross-border traffic; movement of labor force and migration. In this context, we aim to describe and explain aspects related to the phenomenon of regionalization and the construction of European identity. We want to show whether the existence of borders in the European Union represents a positive, negative or neutral phenomenon in the context of efforts to build European identity. This identity represents the main landmark in the relationship between citizens and the community space, a fact that contributes very strongly to the future of the European Union and to the predictability of this global society development.
