The Border between the Republics of Croatia and Slovenia on the Dragonja River

• In Event: The Process of the Liberation of Croatia since 1945

Abstract

Integrally connected with the concept of the liberation of a country and its independence is the question of what comprises the territory of the state. In this paper we will examine the continued dispute between Slovenia and Croatia over the proper placement of the border between them in Istria and the Dragonja River and how its ultimate resolution will be necessary for each state to feel liberated and to strengthen regional security.
