Exploring water scarcity issues in light of the growing crisis in
global water management, this book examines the applicability of
water markets. It provides an overview and understanding of the
presence of water markets across the globe, analysing the ways in
which different countries and regions are grappling with water
scarcity. This timely book offers an insight into the benefits of
water markets, and their identified market failures. A water market
framework is applied to key case studies, highlighting that the
majority of regions have not had sufficient water reforms to allow
for the introduction of water markets without negative social
consequences. The book addresses existing hydrological and
institutional capacity across countries and areas where water
reform is needed, and lessons are provided for future water
markets, taking into account these limitations. The case studies of
different countries tackling water scarcity issues and reform will
make this an essential read for scholars of environmental studies,
water economics, sustainability management and environmental
policies. It will also be an invigorating book for water
policy-makers interested in lessons for change, and in how to
better implement reforms for water markets to help address both
water scarcity and improve productivity.
