The principal aim of this volume is to inform the reader about recent developments in a new branch of language research called ``Eurolinguistics''. In the days of eastward enlargement of the European Union, the integration of linguistic research across national borders is running parallel with political integration. In linguistics as in politics, Europe constitutes a unity not divided by national borders. This is the second volume in The Studies in Eurolinguistics, a collection of papers presented at three different symposia in the period between 2001 and 2003.
This integration of European language research has given rise to several new terms: for example, `Eurolinguistics North' in this volume by N. Scandinavia (Winsa and Laurén) and `Eurolinguistics West' comprising here the Isle of Skye (M üller); North Frisland (Hey); S. Germany (Meng); N. Germany (Kremer); Alsatia (Ph. Elsass) and Switzerland (Albrecht).
Contributions on Russia (Voronkova); the Baltic States (Balode, Protassova, Ureland and Voronkova); Ingermanland (De Geer); Karelia and the Ukraine (Pugh) and the Volga-Kama area (Deltcheva-Kampf) rank as `Eurolinguistics East' and `Eurolinguistics North East' respectively. Contributions from south of the Alps are `Eurolinguistics South' -- South Tyrol (Bernard) -- and Adriatic Sea Region (Browne, Kusmenko, Bro v{zovic-Roncevic, Skracic, Filipi, Muljacic, Jutronic, Socanac, Muhvic-Dimanovski) and `Eurolinguistics South-East' respectively.
