3 Theories of Conflict and Cooperation Over …
between riparian states with different religious backgrounds and/or where the river
concerned is embroiled in identity concerns (e.g. cooperation over the Ganges by
Hindu India and Islamic Bangladesh) (Elhance 1999). On the other hand, cultural
similarities can be a major facilitator of cross-border water cooperation. Thus, the
highly sophisticated system of transboundary water cooperation in the European
Union is attributed to a long history of cooperation, high degree of cultural homogeneity among the countries and widely shared ecological consciousness (McCaffrey
2015).
