Water Conflicts
Analysis for Transformation
AvJeroen Warner,Naho Mirumachim. fl.
E-bok
Engelska, 2020
923 kr
Läs direkt efter köp
Water Conflicts applies cutting-edge thinking to identify pathways that can transform complex water conflicts. It challenges existing power-blind and politics-lite analysis that is very deeply-held and recurring in debates that suggest causal links between scarcity and violence-or peace. This book presents a much needed revision of transboundary water analysis, leading to a rethink on the way water is used and contested, with a focus on harm experienced both by the most vulnerable water users and the environment. Recognizing that conflicts are never static, Mark Zeitoun, Naho Mirumachi, and Jeroen Warner''s "transformative analysis" provides multi-disciplinary tools and perspectives to understand and address the complexities involved. The approach is stress-tested through dozens of examples around the globe, and it incorporates collective evidence and knowledge of the London Water Research Group. The insights on water diplomacy will be most welcome by analysts, activists, diplomats, and all others tackling water conflicts. Seeking to motivate improvement of transboundary water arrangements towards further equity and sustainability as a practical agenda, the book is a fresh antidote to the detached role that researchers and policymakers often play.

Multi-Stakeholder Platforms for Integrated Water Management

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
As they provide a negotiating space for a diversity of interests, Multi-Stakeholder Platforms (MSPs) are an increasingly popular mode of involving civil society in resource management decisions. This book focuses on water management to take a positive, if critical, look at this phenomenon. Illustrated by a wide geographical range of case studies from both developed and developing worlds, it recognizes that MSPs will neither automatically break down divides nor bring actors to the table on an equal footing, and argues that MSPs may in some cases do more harm than good. The volume then examines how MSPs can make a difference and how they might successfully co-opt the public, private and civil-society sectors. The book highlights the particular difficulties of MSPs when dealing with integrated water management programmes, explaining how MSPs are most successful at a less complex and more local level. It finally questions whether MSPs are - or can be - sustainable, and puts forward suggestions for improving their durability.
Flood Planning
The Politics of Water Security

Läs direkt efter köp
Floods are amongst the most common and devastating natural disasters. In the wake of such an event, the pressure to initiate flood protection schemes that will provide security is enormous, and politicians promise quick solutions in the national interest. Jeroen Warner examines a number of such projects from around the world - the Middle East, South Asia and Western Europe - aimed at the prevention of serious flooding. Each provoked a level of controversy unforeseen by its initiators, with the result that schemes were shelved, were not completed, or simply failed. The author shows how such projects inevitably become politicized as different stakeholders seek to promote their interests.

Drylands Facing Change

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This edited volume examines the changes that arise from the entanglement of global interests and narratives with the local struggles that have always existed in the drylands of Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia/Inner Asia.Changes in drylands are happening in an overwhelming manner. Climate change, growing political instability, and increasing enclosures of large expanses of often common land are some of the changes with far-reaching consequences for those who make their living in the drylands. At the same time, powerful narratives about the drylands as ‘wastelands’ and their ‘backward’ inhabitants continue to hold sway, legitimizing interventions for development, security, and conservation, informing re-emerging frontiers of investment (for agriculture, extraction, infrastructure), and shaping new dryland identities. The chapters in this volume discuss the politics of change triggered by forces as diverse as the global land and resource rush, the expansion of new Information and Communication Technologies, urbanization, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the spread of violent extremism. While recognizing that changes are co-produced by differently positioned actors from within and outside the drylands, this volume presents the dryland’s point of view. It therefore takes the views, experiences, and agencies of dryland dwellers as the point of departure to not only understand the changes that are transforming their lives, livelihoods, and future aspirations, but also to highlight the unexpected spaces of contestation and innovation that have hitherto remained understudied.This edited volume will be of much interest to students, researchers, and scholars of natural resource management, land and resource grabbing, political ecology, sustainable development, and drylands in general.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.

Handbook of Land and Water Grabs in Africa
Foreign direct investment and food and water security
AvJeroen Warner,Suvi Sojamom. fl.
E-bok
Engelska, 2012
1 002 kr
Läs direkt efter köp
According to estimates by the International Land Coalition based at the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), 57 million hectares of land have been leased to foreign investors since 2007. Current research has focused on human rights issues related to inward investment in land but has been ignorant of water resource issues and the challenges of managing scarce water. This handbook will be the first to address inward investment in land and its impact on water resources in Africa.
The geographical scope of this book will be the African continent, where land has attracted the attention of risk-taking investors because much land is under-utilised marginalized land, with associated water resources and rapidly growing domestic food markets. The successful implementation of investment strategies in African agriculture could determine the future of more than one billion people. An important factor to note is that Sub-Saharan Africa will, of all the continents, be hit hardest by climate change, population growth and food insecurity. Sensible investment in agriculture is therefore needed, however, at what costs and at whose expense?
The book will also address the livelihoods theme and provide a holistic analysis of land and water grabbing in Sub-Saharan Africa. Four other themes will addressed: politics, economics, environment and the history of land investments in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The editors have involved a highly diverse group of around 25 expert researchers, who will review the pro and anti-investment arguments, geopolitics, the role of capitalist investors, the environmental contexts and the political implications of, and reasons for, leasing millions of hectares in Sub-Saharan Africa. To date, there has been no attempt to review land investments through a suite of different lenses, thus this handbook will differ significantly from existing research and publication.
The editors are Tony Allan, (Professor Emeritus, Department of Geography, School of Oriental and African Studies and King’s College London); Jeroen Warner (Assistant Professor, Disaster Studies, University of Wageningen); Suvi Sojamo (PhD Researcher, Water and Development Research Group, Aalto University); and Martin Keulertz (PhD Researcher, Department of Geography, London Water Group, King’s College London).

WORLD SCIENTIFIC HANDBOOK OF TRANSBOUNDARY WATER MANAGEMENT: SCIENCE, ECONOMICS, POLICY AND POLITICS (IN 4 VOLUMES)

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
The impacts of population growth, climate change, and water scarcity and variability on a country's economy or society, in addition to the sheer need to harness international rivers for domestic and regional purposes, have made the management of transboundary freshwater a subject of great import. Over the past several decades, research in various disciplines utilizing a variety of methodologies has explored these issues, focusing on freshwater's strategic importance as well as conflict, cooperation, and negotiation over shared water bodies (rivers, lakes, aquifers).This multi-volume set seeks to contribute to this still burgeoning body of literature by focusing on several key themes that can help explain and recognize successes and failures in transboundary freshwater management. In particular, the set seeks to bring together original scholarship focusing on international law, technology, institutions (formal and informal), and the interplay of domestic and international affairs. Each edited volume in the set aims to build on extant research while also fostering new paths of inquiry. Overall, the set seeks to become a guide for both academics and practitioners hoping to better understand the joint management of this precious natural resource from socio-political, legal, economic, and technological perspectives.Volume 1 explores international law for shared freshwater resources — both surface and subsurface waters — from a multidisciplinary perspective. It explains the role of international water law (IWL) (and/or specific norms) within particular contexts/case studies and critically examines that role and its relative success (or failure) in achieving the intended objectives.Volume 2 explores the roles of, and limitations of, technologies and their applications in the management of transboundary water and wastewater. It presents case studies and legal, and political analyses that focus on the potential or actual roles and implications of the technologies in transboundary policy and management, rather than detailed explications of the technologies themselves.Volume 3 contributes to the growing literature seeking to understand how, when, and if institutions (broadly defined) impact states' abilities to address their joint water disputes. The volume presents a combination of single, comparative, and empirical analyses of cases across the world about the role of institutions in facilitating collaboration over transboundary water resources and mitigating conflict.Volume 4 seeks to make sense of the interplay of domestic, transnational, and international dynamics in explaining conflict and cooperation over water through single or comparative case studies as well as analyses of on-the-ground transboundary water management experiences arising from these complex political dimensions.
