      abstract = {The paper reviews the main criteria for classifying the  eastern Polish border region as a peripheral area. Apart  from geographical location there are also economic, social  and cultural criteria. The article refers to the economic,  social and cultural conditions of local development. The  main direction of development of the Polish region of  eastern is agriculture. The area is also characterised by  low population density. This hinders the development of the  area. It can also be an advantage, especially in a  situation of tourism development. The paper discusses  selected factors determining the local development of  Eastern Poland. The emphasis is put on their diversity and  the fact that the interpretation of their real impact  remains inconclusive as it is in the case of the border  itself. The boundary state can be both a barrier and a  factor stimulating the development of the areas. The  analysis justifi es the conclusion that each of these  factors contributes to the development of border areas.  Strength of their impact depends on the strategy of  development. The article uses an analysis of source  materials, as well as the author’s own observations arising  from years of the research conducted in this area.},
