The right to clean water has been adopted by the United Nations as a basic human right. Yet how such universal calls for a right to water are understood, negotiated, experienced and struggled over remain key challenges. The Right to Water elucidates how universal calls for rights articulate with local historical geographical contexts, governance, politics and social struggles, thereby highlighting the challenges and the possibilities that exist. Bringing together a unique range of academics, policy-makers and activists, the book analyzes how struggles for the right to water have attempted to translate moral arguments over access to safe water into workable claims. This book is an intervention at a crucial moment into the shape and future direction of struggles for the right to water in a range of political, geographic and socio-economics contexts, seeking to be pro-active in defining what this struggle could mean and how it might be taken forward in a far broader transformative politics. The Right to Water engages with a range of approaches that focus on philosophical, legal and governance perspectives before seeking to apply these more abstract arguments to an array of concrete struggles and case studies. In so doing, the book builds on empirical examples from Africa, Asia, Oceania, Latin America, the Middle East, North America and the European Union.

Water Politics - Governance, Justice and the Right to Water (Hardcover): Farhana Sultana, Alex Loftus Water Politics - Governance, Justice and the Right to Water (Hardcover)

R3,881 Discovery Miles 38 810 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Scholarship on the right to water has proliferated in interesting and unexpected ways in recent years. This book broadens existing discussions on the right to water in order to shed critical light on the pathways, pitfalls, prospects, and constraints that exist in achieving global goals, as well as advancing debates around water governance and water justice. The book shows how both discourses and struggles around the right to water have opened new perspectives, and possibilities in water governance, fostering new collective and moral claims for water justice, while effecting changes in laws and policies around the world. In light of the 2010 UN ratification on the human right to water and sanitation, shifts have taken place in policy, legal frameworks, local implementation, as well as in national dialogues. Chapters in the book illustrate the novel ways in which the right to water has been taken up in locations drawn globally, highlighting the material politics that are enabled and negotiated through this framework in order to address ongoing water insecurities. This book reflects the urgent need to take stock of debates in light of new concerns around post-neoliberal political developments, the challenges of the Anthropocene and climate change, the transition from the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as the mobilizations around the right to water in the global North. This book is essential reading for scholars and students of water governance, environmental policy, politics, geography, and law. It will be of great interest to policymakers and practitioners working in water governance, as well as the human right to water and sanitation.

Modified release dosage forms offer definite advantages over conventional release formulation of the same drug.The three-layered matrix system overcomes inherent disadvantages of non-linearity associated with the core, covered by two additional layers, each with different rates of swelling, gelling and erosion, is what accounts for the rate of drug release. When the tablet is first swallowed, the drug concentration is high but the surface area is small. As time goes by and the core swells, the surface area expands to compensate for the decrease in drug concentration. Based on these theoretical considerations the three-layered tablets were designed and Diclofenac Sodium, a weakly acidic drug and widely used NSAID, was taken as the model drug to evaluate the comparative release characteristics from different polymer matrices with different amount with the variation in the outer layers as well as in the core.Then the percent release from different batches of Diclofenac Sodium was plotted against time to get the zero order plots. In the zero order plots no true straight lines were obtained but statistically significant differences were found among the release profile.
