In 1972, the Second Statute of Autonomy came into force as the central constitutional foundation of South Tyrol's autonomy and thus of the protection of the German and Ladin minorities in South Tyrol. With reference to selected areas, such as competences, financial autonomy, language use, education and relations with other autonomies, this book shows how the Statute has proved itself in practice. Legal solutions for the rapidly changing requirements in law and society, for example through digitalisation, are also examined, as are South Tyrol's relations with the region of Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol, municipalities and Europe. With contributions by Andrea Ambrosi | Siegfried Brugger | Paolo Coppola | Matteo Cosulich | Elena D'Orlando | Sigrun Falkensteiner | Martha Gärber | Esther Happacher | Thomas Mathà | Walter Obwexer | Gianfranco Postal | Martha Stocker | Helmut Tichy | Roberto Toniatti | Alice Valdesalici | Karl Zeller.

This book examines the rapidly expanding EU agency's distinct role in EU border control, showing that Frontex is a prominent border control actor that reshapes the EU borders by promoting a new border control culture. Bringing culture into the analysis of Frontex, this book offers an alternative in-depth understanding of the agency's function, focusing on the production and diffusion of border control assumptions and practices within a border control community. Based on data drawn from primary research at Frontex and two EU external borders, namely Lampedusa and Evros, this book examines Frontex's contribution to the emergence of a new border control culture in Europe, replacing the pre-existing Schengen culture. Compared with the existing literature on Frontex, this novel account takes into consideration the evolving nature of borders and border control, discussing three contemporary challenges for the established border control regime: Brexit, the COVID-19 pandemic, and hard security preoccupations, such as the fall-out from the Russian invasion in Ukraine and the weaponisation of migration at the Greek-Turkish land border. Frontex and the Rising of a New Border Control Culture in Europe will appeal to scholars and students of border management, EU studies, migration, geography, international relations, and security, along with policymakers and practitioners with an interest in EU border control and Frontex.
