This phrase tortured me for a while in the past, it is kind of a abstract structure and really sounds stilted. After confused by it several times, I realized that it simply means 'of' in most of the cases. So just replace it with 'of'. Only when 'of' doesn't function well occasionally, then regard it as "在...那一边". Yet the situation of latter is very scarce and rare.
