Routledge Transboundary Water Politics in Developing World - Earthscan

This Routledge book examines the political economy governing international transboundary river basin management in developing nations. Shared rivers serve as sites for irrigation, hydropower, flood management and water transfer projects, each carrying profound political, socio-economic and environmental consequences. The text explores how these engineering initiatives reshape river basins whilst highlighting the complex challenges of sustainable development, water allocation and resource utilisation between sovereign states. By advancing conceptual thinking on transboundary water governance, the work provides essential insight into the negotiation and management of shared water resources across borders, making it invaluable for scholars, policymakers and professionals engaged with environmental law, water resource management and international development.
