Liquid Relations: Contested Water Rights and Legal Complexity
Eleven case studies in "Liquid Relations" examine laws, distribution, and irrigation in regions around the world. In each case, problems are shown to be both ecological and human-made. The essays also consider the ways that gender, ethnicity, and class differences influence water rights and control. By showing how issues like water scarcity and competition are embedded in specific resource use and management histories, this volume highlights the need for analyses and solutions that are context-specific rather than universal.
