Resumo(s)
Inner Scandinavia is one of the Swedish-Norwegian
INTERRE G-A three sub-programmes, and has been working in operationalizing
cross-border projects in the border area since 1994.
To date, several cross-border strategies have been implemented,
one for each programming period of the INTERRE G-A programme.
This article investigates whether these strategies can be
regarded as a type of cross-border planning mechanism in promoting
territorial development of the border region. It does so by
developing a typology, which captures the essentials of spatial
planning, against the background of which the article also analyses
Inner Scandinavia governance structures, which involves a
whole set of interconnected territorial partnerships between five
border counties: Hedmark, Østfold, Akershus (Norway), Värmland
and Dalarna (Sweden). Here, the main goal is to see if the Inner
Scandinavia governance structure, which was recently altered by
the inclusion of the Hedmark–Dalarna cross-border committee,
also known as TRU ST, is favourable to the implementation of a
genuine and long-term cross-border spatial plan, with the ultimate
goal of reducing the barrier effect and improving the territorial capital
along the cross-border region. Project dokuments and interviews
indicate that the existing cross-border governance model in
Inner Scandinavia, led by the INTERRE G-A Steering Committee,
produced substantial progresses in reducing the barrier effect, in
all its dimensions, and in supporting the territorial development
across the border area. Consequently, the role of other cross-border
governance structures should be confined to promoting the active
involvement and mobilization of local and regional actors in
the cross-border cooperation process, and in implementing several
cross-border projects with local/regional significance.
