Summary/Abstract: Establishing Euroregions as cross-border institutions in neighbouring regions of different states is an effective form of trans-border multitude activity and requires appropriate coordination of joint efforts. While the level of integration differs from one cross-border region to another, the organisational sets and the creation of Euroregional institutions stay the key aspect of forthcoming political, economic, cultural common policy for all of them. The case of Carpathian Euroregion which face the need to become a “bridge structure” and to intensify cross-border dialogue, shows that institutional development has to promote the elimination of barriers between bordering areas, to foster cross-border cooperation and, with this aim, to establish opportunities for political actors of different authority levels to affect decision-making
