This groundbreaking book provides a comparative perspective on
water management and federalism across multiple countries. Through
a collection of case studies, this book explores the water
management experiences and lessons learned in nine federal
countries and China. The territorial division of power in
federations, plus the interconnected politics at the national and
regional levels, present a classic governance test for waters
shared across multiple political jurisdictions. This is
increasingly important as democratic transitions have introduced or
invigorated federalism across diverse contexts affecting more than
300 major river basins.Federal Rivers examines both the successes
and failures of federal regimes in resolving water conflicts and
achieving sustainable water management, particularly within river
basins. Case studies across the Americas, Asia, Africa, Europe and
Australia highlight the extent and diversity of federal rivers,
identifying alternative pathways to sharerisks and make tradeoffs
across political jurisdictions.This book will appeal not only to
scholars of resource management and of federalism, but also to
practitioners in government, the private sector and international
networks with interests in water policy and federalism.
