Most specialists agree that states face many institutional inadequacies when dealing with shared resources and that new governance mechanisms are needed to improve water management. Using case studies of the Aral Sea basin and the Danube, Euphrates, and Mekong river basins, the contributors develop a new approach to water governance: the concept of multi-governance, an effort to collectively solve public problems by involving a series of relevant actors from the local to the global level, such as institutions, states, civil society, and business. 410 0$aSUNY series in global politics. 606 $aWater-supply$xEconomic aspects$vCase studies 606 $aWater-supply$xManagement$xInternational cooperation$vCase studies 606 $aWater resources development$xInternational cooperation$vCase studies 606 $aWatershed management$xInternational cooperation$vCase studies 615 0$aWater-supply$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aWater-supply$xManagement$xInternational cooperation 615 0$aWater resources development$xInternational cooperation 615 0$aWatershed management$xInternational cooperation 676 $a333.91/6217 701 $aFinger$b Matthias$0252302 701 $aTamiotti$b Ludivine$f1973-$01318803 701 $aAllouche$b Jeremy$01691276 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910807671803321 996 $aThe multi-governance of water$94067525 997 $aUNINA
