Following the establishment of the European Single Market, cross-border economic cooperation is increasingly vital, impacting financial, commodity, and labor markets. Although the freedoms of movement and establishment have laid the groundwork for cross-border labor markets, regional obstacles persist, hindering development potential. This situation has prompted collaboration among academics and practitioners to address research gaps and explore political solutions. The focus is on how transnational cooperation and cross-border mobility can enhance employment and regional development opportunities. The text examines the role of knowledge exchange in active labor market policies for neighboring countries and how improved cross-border cooperation can reduce unemployment. Targeted at economists, social scientists, regional scientists, and practitioners, the book covers various topics, including the migration of labor within the EU, labor market integration, and the impact of mobility on regional development. It also discusses the influence of borders on economic internationalization and the challenges of cross-border mobility, particularly in Dutch-German border regions. Additionally, it highlights the value of cross-border job market relations for European integration and coordination in border areas, drawing lessons from specific projects.
