Although water is nature's most important molecule; its regulation
and management are the most challenging public policy issues for
any society. Water is the common denominator of all life on earth.
Public water policies then become the fundamental foundations of
community formation anywhere. Cities exist in their places based on
the local access to adequate amounts of fresh water. Without fair,
workable, and transparent public water policy any society is
threatened with socio-economic destruction, especially in the arid
areas living under severe drought and the threat of warming trends
worldwide. Public Water Policies: The Ultimate Weapons of Social
Control *Provides an interdisciplinary view of water policies
worldwide *Critically analyzes the consequences of water policies
around the world, many that are not only overlooked, but that have
never been considered *Analyzes the conflicts in social values of
any society that demand hard choices between population growth,
economic growth, and the environment *Provides a new perspective on
the overall long-reaching economic consequences of water policy.
*Offers four new terms to describe public water policies in
relation to social control: due process social control, deceptive
social control, diplomatic social control, and destructive social
control *Compares and contrasts water policies in key places in the
world using the new terms of social control to enlighten the public
and especially those water policymakers worldwide
