cross-frontier contacts
definition: Cross-frontier contacts are relevant to situations in which members of the same national, ethnic, religious, linguistic, or cultural group are separated by international boundaries. Groups like these, which are often referred to as transfrontier minorities, are a by-product of nation-state formation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Race, Ethnicity, and Society; Cross-Frontier Contacts]
