Summary/Abstract: Joseph Roth blurred the border between journalism and literature in his feuilletons. In this article I want to show the motif of international borders in his printed texts in the press. They were written in the 1920s, just after the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Roth, born on the border between states and cultures, in multi-ethnic Brody, from the very beginning of his creative work, opposed the collapse of the empire, but also the bureaucracy prevailing at border crossings. In this article, therefore, I will present his most important columns in which he described this problem.
