According to recent estimates, around 6,000 people - mostly
children under five - die every day from diseases caused by
inappropriate water and sanitation (WS) services. Much of the
academic and political debate surrounding this issue has focused on
private sector participation. By shifting the attention towards the
influence of governance, Krause examines the political and sectoral
institutions that are essential for the provision of WS services.
Utilizing data from sixty-nine developing countries, Matthias
Krause demonstrates that the level of democracy has a statistically
significant positive impact on access to WS services and that
low-quality governance of sub-national governments compromises the
internal efficiency of providers and the widespread access to
services. This book makes a critical contribution to the water and
sanitation research and will help academics and policy-makers to
rethink the way in which they deal with water issues.
