About this book deutschenglish

Water is one of the most important natural resources on this planet. Several regions already face enormous challenges with regard to water. Water scarcity, pollution and unsustainable use are only a few of the pressing issues. Transboundary rivers play an prominent role in the context. Societies use them in different ways: as freshwater source, for energy production, for transportation or for agricultural irrigation purposes. Since transnational rivers pass more than one country the question of their governance as well as management are of high relevance. How do states deal politically with this interdependence? What is the design of governance systems on a global and regional level? Which factors are decisive for the sustainable governance of this natural resource? This book gives answers to these questions based on the analysis of the global and regional level. The case studies on the regional level take a close look at the Danube as well as the Nile river basin.
