| Abstract: | In 2001 and 2004 we launched and relaunched a project to study the structure and mechanism of scientific collaboration among 15 member countries of European Union (EU-15) using bibliometric data (1994-2003). This paper presents the basic ideas, methods, and part of the findings. In scientific collaboration EU-15 gets more open over the past decade. The proportion of the collaboration within EU countries is decreasing, while the proportion of the collaboration of EU countries with also the co-authors from non-EU countries is increasing. There exist geographical and lingual preferences in EU-15 scientific collaboration. When the geographical proximity of the collaborative countries gets smaller, the collaborative strength negative-exponentially declines. When the lingual proximity of the collaborative countries gets smaller, the collaborative strength negative-exponentially declines, as well |
