Özet:
A. Dinar (U. of California-Riverside), S. Dinar (Florida International U.), McCaffrey (U. of the Pacific, US), and McKinney (U. of Texas-Austin) present a textbook for graduate students in economics engineering, water law, and international relations and for practitioners in water resource management, international water, and water policy. Contrary to warning headlines, they say, examples of governments cooperating about water far out number examples of conflict. They update the 2008 first edition to incorporate recent developments in the Nile, the Indus, and the Columbia basins. Among the topics are the development and applications of international water law, cooperative game theory and water resources, hydropolitics and international relations, and the use of river basic modeling as a tool to assess conflict and potential cooperation. The Middle East is not mentioned. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) There simply is no other book on the subject of shared waters that is as carefully tailored for its multiple audiences as this. Scholars will appreciate its up-to-date survey of cutting edge research (to which the authors themselves contribute regularly); policymakers will be grateful for its accessible and applied nature; and teachers and students will value the design specifically for a 13-week semester, with careful progression from the basics out to the frontiers of the field. Not only is the multidisciplinary approach effective and well-integrated, the text is also readable and thoughtful, with the supplementary material and models adding tremendous value. This second edition, enhanced as it is with coverage of important advances in governance and treaty studies, simulations and optimization, game theoretical approaches, as well as updates to the basins which are covered, keep this on the must-have list for those in the field.
