Description

As international tensions rise in volatile regions, the management of water resources has become a global flashpoint. Blue Gold: The Battle Against Corporate Theft of the World's Water examines the dangerous policy trends currently being imposed on governments worldwide. This Routledge publication explores how passing control of water to private interests often leads to increased inequality and deprivation rather than solving scarcity. Through an analysis of real-world crises in California, China, South Africa, and Mexico, this book reveals the scale of the global water problem. It examines the risks associated with privatization and presents a necessary alternative: the recognition of water access as a fundamental human right. Instead of a system based on the ability to pay, the text argues for a framework that protects this essential resource for all people. This is an essential read for those studying international law, business, and global resource management.
