In-Between Europe
The intention to disentangle the geographical reference from the normative
connotations of the Central European paradigm led to a number of conceptual
solutions. One of the most popular is ‘in-between Europe’ (Köztes-Európa), which
was obviously rooted in an attempt to emancipate the geographical terminology of
its pathos, but to retain its reference to a regional entity between the two (i.e.,
German and Russian) geopolitical zones of influence.

The term Zwischeneuropa, literally "In-Between Europe," as Pándi points out, is in itself politically motivated and serves to define these small states as a buffer zone between Russia and Europe. What is characteristic of the whole area is multi-ethnicity, fragmentation, a state of amalgam. Apart from short periods, it was mostly directed from the outside, from Vienna, Berlin, St. Petersburg, and Constantinople, but the small nations, striving to become nation-states, always protested against this fact.
