The area was essentially unoccupied until the end of the last Ice Age when the melting of huge ice sheets left behind a fresh, barren land surface, which was eventually covered by flora and fauna. The first humans did not arrive until sometime after 13,500 BCE. The prehistoric remains of human activity in Scandinavia - much of it remarkably preserved in its bogs, lakes, and fjords - have given archaeologists a richly detailed portrai 606 $aPrehistoric peoples$zScandinavia 606 $aAntiquities, Prehistoric$zScandinavia 606 $aSocial archaeology$zScandinavia 607 $aScandinavia$xAntiquities 607 $aScandinavia$xHistory$yTo 1397 615 0$aPrehistoric peoples 615 0$aAntiquities, Prehistoric 615 0$aSocial archaeology 676 $a936.8 686 $aHIS044000$2bisacsh 700 $aPrice$b T.

In the backdrop of the gravity of groundwater crisis that threatens to engulf the country, the book examines the correlation between the imperfections in the law and water crisis and advocates a reform agenda to overhaul the legal framework. It accomplishes this objective by examining how some of the States and Union Territories regulate and manage groundwater through the legal instrumentality against the backdrop of the two conflicting paradigms: the ?elitist? and the ?egalitarian.? The book?s fundamental premise is that despite being an extraordinarily critical resource that supports India?s burgeoning population?s ever-increasing water demands, groundwater is abused and mismanaged. The key argument that it posits is that the elitist paradigm must give way to an egalitarian one where groundwater is treated as a common property resource. To place this message in perspective, the book?s introduction explains the dichotomy between the two paradigms in the context of groundwater. This sets the stage, after which the book is divided thematically into three parts. The first part deals with some of the general groundwater management concerns brought to the fore by the operation of the elitist paradigm. Since water is constitutionally a State subject, the second part analyses the groundwater legislations of different States and Union Territories set against their unique circumstances. As these laws do not dismantle the elitist paradigm that interlocks groundwater rights to land rights, the next part articulates the legal reform agenda where a case is made to re-engineer groundwater laws to reflect a more sustainable basis. The findings and arguments resonate with the situation in many developing countries around the world due to which the book is a valuable resource for researchers across disciplines studying this area, and also for policy makers, think tanks, and NGOs. 606 $aEnvironmental Law 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aWater 606 $aHydrology 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aEnvironmental Law 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aWater 606 $aDevelopment Studies 615 0$aEnvironmental Law. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aWater. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 14$aEnvironmental Law. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aWater. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 676 $a346.0469104 702 $aKhan$b Sarfaraz Ahmed 702 $aPuthucherril$b Tony George 702 $aPaul$b Sanu Rani 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910495246203321 996 $aGroundwater law and management in India$92834051 997 $aUNINA
