Description

Can River Basin Organisations (RBOs) actually improve water governance? RBOs are frequently layered on top of existing governmental organisations, which are often reluctant to share their power. This, in turn, can affect their performance. The Politics of River Basin Organisations addresses this issue by exploring the subject on a global level. With the use of case studies from such diverse countries as Mongolia, Afghanistan and South Africa, the expert contributors to The Politics of River Basin Organisations provide a comprehensive assessment of the performance of eleven RBOs around the world. They develop a typology that works to characterize the institutional design of these organizations whilst distinguishing between them. This unique book will appeal to those involved in environmental and water policy and governance. It will also be of interest to practitioners of water management looking to improve their approach to the field. Contributors: D. Benson, C. Bernhardt, A. Guerreiro de Brito, D. Calvert, D. Connell, H. Cook, I. Dombrowsky, N. Funke, S. Ganjanapan, J. Gupta, N. Hagemann, L. Horlemann, A. Houdret, F. Hüesker, D. Huitema, F. Jaspers, A. Inman, D. Lach, L. Lebel, M. Leidel, R. de Loë, S. Meijerink, R. Meissner, M. Morris, A. Ross, A. Thiel, V. Thomas, J. Warner
