Chapter 5
By Brains: Conclusion and Discussion

5.1 Introduction

Chapter five gives the conclusion and a broad discussion on the research. In the conclusion the main factors for East-East cooperation are mentioned and the hypotheses are evaluated. To know the main factors having a role in East-East cooperation is very important for the people who want to promote East-East cooperation. At first this is of course the interest of the RECs Earmarked Grants Team, but other funding organizations like EPCE might use the information as well. At second the environmental NGOs in Central Europe might like to use this conclusion for comparing their approach of and experience with East-East cooperation with mine. At third Western NGOs and individual activists can profit, since they have an important role in stimulating East-East cooperation, because of network activities and/or personal contacts. The main factors for East-East cooperation are given in 5.2. The next paragraph, 5.3, discusses the used theory and methods. Finally in 5.4 some outlines for future research on the highly interesting topic of East-East cooperation are suggested.
