Abstract

Transboundary river management is a pivotal topic of international cooperation. There is no doubt that the international management of the Rhine river basin is one of the most successful case. Nevertheless, only a few of the former studies of the Rhine river cooperation applied International Relation theories to the case study. This article intends to compare three different theories in the case and argue that Constructivism better explains the case of cooperation around the Rhine River than realism or liberalism. To do that, this article examines the historical background of the International Commission for the Protection of the Rhine (ICPR) from the year 1950 to 2000. It shows that the success and improvement have made the water resources utilized and preserved effectively and adequately.
