Lectures on the topic usually begin with a complex diagram mapping the large number of issue areas that illustrates how vitally important water is to every facet of human existence. However, another message becomes apparent to students: water scarcity is an expansive topic and therefore theoretically problematic. From the start complications arise due to the pervasive nature of water. Water underwrites human life, so how can we begin to discuss it in isolation from other variables? Does water scarcity cause conflict or does conflict cause water scarcity? Is water scarcity due to a lack of availability or to ineffective allocation? Are the problems solved by building more infrastructure or does the spread of infrastructure lead to more water exploitation? Unfortunately, the best answer to most of these questions is: "it depends." Water scarcity is subject to a wide variation of conditions, depending on the uniqueness of each geographical area. Case studies, such as those used in Raging Waters: China, India, Bangladesh, and Brahmaputra River Politics are vitally important to understanding the broader impacts across a basin, but the ubiquitous nature of water confounds research efforts."--Provided by publisher. 606 $aWater rights (International law) 606 $aWater resources development$xPolitical aspects$zBrahmaputra River 606 $aWater-supply$xPolitical aspects$zBrahmaputra River 606 $aWater security$zBrahmaputra River 607 $aBrahmaputra River Watershed$xPolitical aspects 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWater rights (International law) 615 0$aWater resources development$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aWater-supply$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aWater security 676 $a333.91/62095492 700 $aSamaranayake$b Nilanthi$01088333 702 $aWuthnow$b Joel 702 $aLimaye$b Satu P. 712 02$aMarine Corps University (U.S.).$bPress, 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524672303321 996 $aRaging Waters$92605745 997 $aUNINA
