Editat de Antonio A R Ioris
en Limba Engleză Paperback – mai 2027
Water Scarcity: Disciplinary Perspectives and International Experiences Revisited revisited delves into water scarcity and abundance by examining their evolution and the diverse responses they have provoked across the Global North and South. Through a multidimensional lens and edited by experts in the fields of water science, this comprehensive book explores trends in both inland and coastal regions, the complex interplay between urban and rural areas, and the pivotal roles of technology, community, and gender in shaping responses to scarcity. Drawing from scientific, academic, and grassroots perspectives, the book exposes how exclusionary policies, and technocratic solutions often perpetuate scarcity, while fleeting abundances are manufactured to serve political or operational interests. By critically assessing the moral, legal, and economic bases of water allocation, and highlighting both obstacles and innovative pathways to development, this is a necessary guide to students and researchers of Environmental Science offering and nuanced understanding of water scarcity.
