This book analyzes water policies in South Asia from the
perspective of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). It
seeks to address the problems of water scarcity, conflict and
pollution resulting from the gross mismanagement and
over-exploitation of this finite resource. Highlighting the need
for IWRM in mitigating abuse and ensuring sustainable use, it
discusses issues relating to groundwater management; inter-state
water conflicts; peri-urban water use; local traditional water
management practices; coordination between water users and uses;
and water integration at the grassroots level. With case studies
from India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, and Nepal, the innovative,
painstaking and transnational researches presented in the volume
deal with questions of equity, gender, sustainability, and
democratic governance in water policy interventions. It will
interest researchers and students of development studies,
environmental studies, natural resource management, water
governance, and public administration, as also water sector
professionals, policymakers, civil society activists and
governmental and nongovernmental organizations.
