Sažetak
Everyday practices in shaping borders are rapidly changing over the past few years. Ongoing processes of militarization and hardening of border regimes worldwide overcome the forces of fluidity and de- territorialization. The refugee crisis in Europe showed that forces that shape borders have changed its direction. Militarization and hardening of the regimes of border security due to the crisis influenced all types of migrations. Shift in those trends in Europe did not happen evenly or territorially similar. There are clear geopolitical patterns of borders and border concepts in Europe. Nevertheless, some parts and regions did not undergo through all the phases of contemporary border concepts change due to due to security issues, challenges or frozen conflicts. One of such examples is border between Serbia and Kosovo. This paper will analyze this case study trough geopolitical, legal and security aspects not only borders on the national level, but micro-level ethnic border issues as well. Field observation method will be used to show curiosities and divisions in town Mitrovica, as a micro-level internal borders due to ethnic divisions. Border management and mismanagement on national level will be analyzed trough economic as well as legal issues and practice.
