International Water Scarcity and Variability : Managing Resource Use Across Political Boundaries Paperback / softback
by Shlomi Dinar, Ariel Dinar
Paperback / softback
Description
International Water Scarcity and Variability considers international water management challenges created by water scarcity and environmental change.
Although media coverage and some scholars tend to cast natural resource shortages as leading inexorably toward armed conflict and war, Shlomi Dinar and Ariel Dinar demonstrate that there are many examples of and mechanisms for more peaceful dispute resolution regarding natural resources, even in the face of water paucity and climate change.
The authors base these arguments on both global empirical analyses and case studies.
Using numerous examples that focus on North America, Europe, Central Asia, and the Middle East, this book considers strategies and incentives that help lessen conflict and motivate cooperation under scarcity and increased variability of water resources.
