| Summary: | From a geographical and a geopolitical point of view the Danubian cooperation has taken place in an eventful context linked to the economic and political mutations in Central and Eastern European Countries and to the eastwards enlargement of the European Union. The residents living near the Danube consider it simultaneously as a common resource, a border, a waterway and a source of risks inherent in human activities and climatic vagaries. These factors have created possibilities for new modalities of Danubian cooperation such as the emergence of the regional scale in the cooperation process, and the build up of the environmental discourse as an argument used to promote that process.
