This thesis examines several important issues
raised by the
global water crisis. The world is currently in the
midst of a water
catastrophe that is holding back human progress,
cosigning large
segments of humanity to lives of poverty,
vulnerability, and
insecurity. Overcoming the crisis in water and
sanitation is one
of the most daunting global development challenges
of the
twenty-first century.
This thesis explores several important issues
that are raised
in the ongoing debate between private versus public
water
management. These issues revolve around many of
globalizations most pressing concerns including
democracy,
transparency, human rights, and contending global
development
theories. I concentrate on what lessons can be
learned from
ideological perspectives and focus on how they can
help in
formulating effective strategies for global water
development in
the future.
