Produktbeschreibung
Water conflict is a term describing a conflict between countries, states, or groups over the rights to access water resources. The United Nations recognizes that water disputes result from opposing interests of water users, public or private. A wide range of water conflicts appear throughout history, though rarely are traditional wars waged over water alone. Instead, water has historically been a source of tension and a factor in conflicts that start for other reasons. However, water conflicts arise for several reasons, including territorial disputes, a fight for resources, and strategic advantage. A comprehensive online database of water-related conflict -the Water Conflict Chronology- has been developed by the Pacific Institute. This database lists violence over water going back nearly 6,000 years. The institutions created by these agreements can, in fact, be one of the most important factors in ensuring cooperation rather than conflict. I hope you like this book.In fact, if the water crisis is not stopped, the name of this book should be remembered:Next station: The Inferno!So Ladies and gentlemen!Welcome to the new era of the world water crisis
