The Baltic Sea Region and Estonian Seascapes

Listen to a podcast that uncovers the different layers of the Estonian coastline from a human geography perspective.

Regionalisation and the Baltic Sea Region

Listen to a podcast about when and why states in and around the Baltic Sea have worked together for economic, social or geopolitical reasons, with a focus on Poland.  After the end of the Cold War, regional initiatives like the Council of the Baltic Sea States sprung up to keep Russia around the table and as a vehicle to work collectively towards common aims, inspired at least in part by Nordic regional institutions. But are such initiatives still as important now Russia no longer plays a part in them?  Nicola Witcombe, editor of nordics.info, talks to researchers Damian Szacawa and Jakub Olchowski [https://nordics.info/show/artikel/podcast-regionalisation-and-the-baltic-sea-region] political scientists at the Department of International Relations, Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, Poland.
