ABSTRACT:
The development of cross-border cooperation is an effective factor in overcoming of the social and economic problems caused by the presence of the Polish-Ukrainian border. Regardless of the level of economic development, the border areas and frontier territories of any state remain at the periphery of its economic priorities. Business tends to the capital, large economic and logistic centers, while in the peripheral regions, the structure of the economy is objectively deformed with depressive trends, which is the result of objective processes in a competitive market economy. The Polish-Ukrainian border has a number of specific features that are not inherent in other regions. Existing borders were formed only in the middle of the 20th century and cross-border cooperation aimed at preserving and restoring Ukrainian and Polish cultural heritage and supporting the development of transboundary economic forms would help to overcome the existing problems of the border areas.
