Community-of-Interests as a Theory of International Water Law dives deep into Community-of-Interests as a Theory framing international water law. The Theory emerges from the physical unity of a basin, interconnecting countries to safeguard their shared aspirations through close cooperation. Taking the reader through case studies and across continents and legal fields, the book explores global and regional state interests and analyses in detail treaty- and case-law and recent developments on the law of transboundary basins. The book moves the needle on persisting debates and misunderstandings through well-founded positions when painting a detailed picture of the Theory and its normative elements, functions and status.
