Although Turkey has a long-held aspiration for European Union membership and has been a candidate for more than a decade, relations between the EU and Turkey have not received the attention it deserves from non-Turkish researchers thus far, and consequently the international literature on EU-Turkey relations is rather limited. In light of recent global economic and political challenges for the EU and Turkey, a need has emerged for an interdisciplinary approach to study EU-Turkey relations within the wider international political and economic context.

Zemljepisna imena so pomembna kulturna dediščina vsakega naroda. So temeljni gradnik vseh civilizacij oziroma kultur, saj prostor polnijo s pomeni in razvijajo prostorske identitete. Zemljepisna imena v jezikih z malo govorci, kakršna je slovenščina, so pogosto ogrožena, še bolj pa to velja za zemljepisna imena narodnih manjšin, kamor spadajo tudi porabski Slovenci, najmanjša slovenska manjšina v zamejstvu. Skrajni zahodni rob Madžarske, umeščen med Slovenijo in Avstrijo, imenujemo Slovensko Porabje. Obsega 7 naselij, kjer je prisotna uradna dvojezičnost. Zunanji simbol te dvojezičnosti so dvojezične obcestne table z imeni naselij. Osrednji predmet naše raziskave pa so bila ledinska imena. Rezultat raziskave, monografija z zemljevidom in slovarjem, temelji na obsežnem terenskem delu in pregledu arhivskih virov. Upamo, da bodo rezultati prispevali k ohranitvi ledinskih imen v zavesti ljudi. Poleg obširne monografije je bil kot projektni rezultat objavljen tudi zemljevid ledinskih imen.
