This book argues that river basins represent a particular
structural setting in international relations with the potential
for generating a dynamic of cooperation among the involved
countries. The volume applies the concept of regional cooperation
to international river basins to highlight their relevance as a
particular space in international relations, emphasising both the
inter-connectivity and transnationalism of international river
basins. It addresses the challenges related to resource
distribution between up and down stream countries, showcasing a
variety of examples of cooperation and conflictual relations within
various international river basins. Case studies are drawn from
across the globe and include the Mekong, the Indus, the
Euphrates-Tigris and the Danube international river basins. Each
chapter outlines the different aspects which support or undermine
cooperation in each case, taking into consideration key areas
surrounding resource sharing, national development, environmental
considerations and national security. This book will be of great
interest to students and scholars with an interest in international
river basins, regional cooperation, water resource competition,
international relations and environmental politics.
