Rezensionen

"By focusing on the impact of the fundamental principle of 'reciprocity' in the practice of international water law, this ground-breaking book explores the realpolitik of water diplomacy, highlighting the self-interest of States in engaging in transboundary water cooperation. It provides a novel, yet highly valuable framework within which to analyse and understand the approach of China, as probably the single most important State actor in the practice of transboundary water law today." - Owen McIntyre, School of Law, University College Cork, National University of Ireland, Ireland

"Reciprocity, China, transboundary waters -- three hot topics, examined here in an innovative legal study, offering fresh insights into the complex issues integral to transboundary water cooperation. Reciprocity -- over-looked, under-studied - is integral to understanding not only China's transboundary water practice, but also right across the field." - Patricia Wouters, Director, International Water Law Academy, Wuhan University, China
