It analyzes the international legal regime for human rights, and argues that the nexus between development, water and human rights is well established therein. Although the central theme of the Study is General Comment No. 15 issued by the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in 2002 which explicitly recognizes a human right to water, the Study argues that the Comment supports the idea that there is an incipient right to water emerging in international law today. This right is buttressed by a large number of soft law instruments, emerging customary international law, as well as an increasing number of domestic law instruments. 410 0$aLaw, justice, and development. 606 $aWater rights 606 $aHuman rights 615 0$aWater rights. 615 0$aHuman rights. 676 $a341.4/8 700 $aSalman$b Salman M.
