Brill Research Perspectives in International Water Law
Series:
The Brill Research Perspectives in International Water Law is a unique reference publication for research output on shared freshwater resources. Population growth, economic activities, environmental degradation, and climate change have exacerbated competition and ignited disputes over water resources (both surface water and groundwater) shared by two or more states. The entry into force of the United Nations Watercourses Convention has refocused the attention of the world community on shared water resources and underscored the pressing need for their equitable and sustainable sharing, inclusive and proper management, and environmental protection. Each contribution comprises a single, uniquely focused monograph that explores these aspects and addresses international, regional, and bilateral agreements and arrangements as well as thematic matters related to shared water resources. The series target contributors and readers include international water law professors, researchers, practitioners, and graduate and undergraduate students. The Brill Research Perspectives in International Water Law started publication in 2016. Each monograph of the Series has been published both: as an issue of the journal (Journal Series), as well as a free-standing monograph (Monograph Series). As of 2021, publication will continue only with the Monograph Series. These monographs will continue to be numbered to reflect the chronological order and year of publication.
