The regions of the German-Polish border area studied in this paper encounter different development paths of coal and renewable energy sources. One emblematic recent case in this context, is the legal dispute over the closure of the Tur{\´o}w coal mine. The authors investigate to what extent these energy spaces develop between European frameworks, nation-state policies as well as regional and local implementations. The analysis is based on regional discourses of German and Polish newspapers with the highest circulation in the border area. The combination of a discourse analysis and a multidimensional, space-theoretical approach overcomes a simplification of socio-spatial strategies and enables a differentiation of the borderlands. Additionally, the examination of the discursive practices provides insights on scaling and network activities as well as on strategies of place-protection in socio-material energy spaces in the German-Polish borderland.}, language = {en} } @misc{EichenauerGailing, author = {Eichenauer, Eva and Gailing, Ludger}, title = {What Triggers Protest? - Understanding Local Conflict Dynamics in Renewable Energy Development}, series = {Land}, volume = {11}, journal = {Land}, number = {10}, issn = {2073-445X}, doi = {10.3390/land11101700}, pages = {1 -- 26}, abstract = {The expansion of renewable energy infrastructure comes with increasing conflicts at local level that significantly impede the expansion of renewable energy in Germany and impact the realization of national and international climate goals. In some conflicts, rural communities are torn apart and social relations strained beyond the energy conflict. Other projects are realized with no or only minor disruption. To researchers, project developers and local politicians alike, it seems unpredictable as to which way local energy conflicts evolve. Thus, the paper aims to shed light on conflict dynamics and identifies a number of aspects that influence local energy conflicts. The paper applies a conflict theoretical perspective on local energy conflicts. Rather than identifying energy conflicts as a sign of dysfunctionality, conflicts are seen as an important element of a democratic society struggling to find the best way through the transformation towards decarbonization. Based on qualitative research on local energy conflicts in five German municipalities the paper analyzes aspects that encourage constructive conflicts and aspects that impede such developments. With reference to Dahrendorf's conditions of conflict the categories of energy conflicts are systematized within an analytical framework according to conditions of organization, conflict and change. These categories and aspects are embedded in specific local conditions, making conflicts on the one hand typical and on the other very specific. They are also entry points for dealing constructively with the conflicts.}, language = {en} } @misc{KruegerEichenauerGailing, author = {Kr{\"u}ger, Timmo and Eichenauer, Eva and Gailing, Ludger}, title = {Whose future is it anyway?

We ask, firstly, how an emergent collaborative regional governance network can be institutionalized in the long term based on participatory mechanisms on several levels as well as between actors with different goals and values. Secondly, how an organizationally thin, rural context influences the governance network in steering the social innovation promotion and what kind of development for whom do different governance networks mobilize. Research was conducted as a qualitative comparative case study with semi-structured expert interviews. The findings highlight that the institutionalization of collaborative governance is supported by funding and policies from upper scales and the model of regional development agency enhances the learning of collaborative governance between public institutions. However, the goal and beneficiaries of the development are mainly the classic economic actors, whereas transformative grassroots movements enhancing social innovation are largely ignored by public-driven collaborative governance.}, language = {en} } @techreport{EichenauerGailing, author = {Eichenauer, Eva and Gailing, Ludger}, title = {Mehr Akzeptanz durch verpflichtende finanzielle Beteiligung an Windenergieanlagen.

With the help of Border Studies and a borderlands systematics, upheavals in energy production and related negotiation processes can be ana-lysed and classified. Our paper focuses on the border regions of SaarLorLux (Germany-France-Luxembourg) and Saxony-Lower Silesia (Germany-Poland). We classify the French nuclear power plant Cattenom on the border to Germany and Luxembourg and the Polish opencast mine Tur{\´o}w on the border to Germany and the Czech Republic as conflictual examples, while the hydrogen initiative Grande Region Hydrogen and the twin city of G{\"o}rlitz-Zgorzelec can be considered interlinked areas. With the help of borderlands systematics light can be shed on comparable energy paths in the two border regions.
