Rethinking responses to the world’s water crises
Drought Management Norms
The Middle East and North Africa region experiences severe socioeconomic and political impacts during droughts and faces increasing drought risk in future climate projections. The UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction’s Sendai Framework and the International Drought Management Programme provide a global standard (a norm) to manage droughts through natural hazard risk reduction approaches. We use participatory engagement to evaluate whether norm d…
Creating a hydrosocial territory
This article presents the Liwa Oasis as a hydrosocial territory. It is defined by its natural resource, social, economic, and political context and we show how these manifest in policy and practice. The article identifies these components through analysis of the political economy of water management and agricultural production systems. Two distinct hydrosocial periods are defined: from independence in 1971 to the formation of agencies with water …
Droughts and Agriculture in Lebanon
This volume examines the causes and consequences of drought on Lebanon’s agriculture. Lebanon is getting hotter and dryer. Projections show droughts will likely become more frequent and severe. Climate change, El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) impact the occurrence of drought to varying degrees, with NAO being the biggest short-term driver and climate change being the biggest long-term driver. The drier…
The hydrosocial cycle
Circulations and transformations of energy and water in Abu Dhabi’s hydrosocial cycle
Water quality standards or carbon reduction
Currently there is a misalignment between the European Union Water Framework Directive (EU WFD) and the United Kingdom Climate Change Act (UK CCA). This paper explores the tensions and complexities experienced by water companies in England and Wales as they attempt to meet the contradictory legislative requirements. A simple model is used to explore the effect of increasing effluent quality on power consumption and hence carbon emissions. Further…
Science–policy guidelines as a benchmark
In recent years, a number of governments have made moves towards evidenced‐based policymaking justified by the assertions that scientific understanding makes for better‐informed and more effective legislative and regulatory decisions. Some of these governments have produced generic, almost step‐by‐step recipes, for the use of evidence in policymaking in the form of ‘science–policy guidelines’. The usefulness of these somewhat linear procedures ha…
