Contemporary Water Governance in the Global South (Electronic book text)

This book focuses on three major concepts and approaches that have gained currency in policy and governance circles, both globally and regionallyscarcity and crisis, marketization and privatization, and participation. It provides a historical and contextual overview of each of these ideas as they have emerged in global and regional policy and governance circles and pairs these with in-depth case studies that examine manifestations and contestations of water governance internationally.
