The signing of the Convention on the protection of the Alps (Alpine
Convention) by the Alpine States in 1991 heralded new practices and
perspectives. This transnational project is intended to solve
important challenges faced by the Alpine population. Convinced that
the Alpine Convention should fulfil its potential, some
non-governmental organizations and some active persons created
networks of local political actors to connect local
representatives, researchers, managers of protected areas and
ecological associations. These were designed to realize a
sustainable pan-Alpine region. This book endeavours to understand
how and why local political actors, organized in pan-Alpine
networks, chose to take mountain regions in general, and the Alps
in particular, as the shared frame of reference for their
involvement. It explores if and how a pan-Alpine identity detached
from and/or combined with the more "traditional" national
identities is developing among and enacted by local political
actors engaged for the Alpine Convention. It also analyzes the
socio-political significance of local political actors' involvement
in the newly constituted pan-Alpine networks.
