From diverse perspectives, its essays examine the potential benefits to be gained from revisiting the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty, as well as from mounting joint efforts to increase water supply, to combat climate change, to develop hydroelectric power, and to improve water management..The Indus basin is shared by four countries (Afghanistan, China, India, and Pakistan). The basin’s significance stems in part simply from the importance of these countries, three of them among the planet’s most populous states, one of them boasting the world’s second largest economy, and three of them members of the exclusive nuclear weapons club. However, the basin’s significance stems also from the great importance of the Indus waters themselves – due especially to the region’s massive dependence on irrigated agriculture as well as to the menace of climate change and advancing water scarcity. .The “Industan” this volume imagines is a definite departure from business as usual responses | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Indus basin; Indus waters treaty; Water and climate change; Water conflict; Water management; Water secur | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-32845-4 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-81382-0 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-32845-4Series ISSN 2367-4008 Series E-ISSN 2367-4016 | issn_series | 2367-4008 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerl |
