Obwohl sogenannte Ehrenmorde nur einen kleinen Teil der Tötungsdelikte hierzulande ausmachen, erschüttern sie uns besonders, wir sind kaum in der Lage, sie rational und emotional zu verstehen. Der Gedanke, einen womöglich sogar nahestehenden Menschen zu ermorden, nur um die vermeintliche Familienehre zu erhalten oder wiederherzustellen, macht uns rat- und fassungslos.

Enormous legal cross-border flows of people, goods, and finance are embedded in the region's history and prompted by the need to respond to new opportunities and challenges that originate on the other side.
