River Basin Management at the Lowest Appropriate Level: When and Why Does It Work in Practice? -- River Basin Management at the Lowest Appropriate Level: When and Why Does It (Not) Work in Practice? -- Comparative Analysis of Case Studies -- Determinants of River Basin Management Decentralization: Motivation, Process, and Performance -- The Case Studies -- Australia: Murray-Darling Basin -- Brazil: Alto Tietê Basin -- Brazil: Jaguaribe Basin -- Canada: Fraser Basin -- Costa Rica: Tárcoles Basin -- Indonesia: Brantas Basin -- Poland: Warta Basin -- Spain: Guadalquivir Basin -- Conclusion -- River Basin Management: Conclusions and Implications. Drawing upon a worldwide survey of river basin organizations and in-depth studies of eight river basins in a variety of locations around the globe, this book examines how institutional arrangements for managing water resources at the river-basin level have been designed and implemented, what the impetus for these arrangements has been, and what institutional features appear to be associated with greater or lesser success in river basin management. |
