WATER DIPLOMACY IN ACTION
Contingent Approaches to Managing Complex Water Problems

Shafiqul Islam and Kaveh Madani

{{
This volume amplifies the fact that water is an
interdisciplinary resource and analyzes the complex array
of interconnected water issues that cross multiple boundaries.
It diagnoses water problems, identifies intervention points
and proposes some sustainable solutions that blend science,
law, policy and politics. It is a major contribution to the
field of water diplomacy.
—Salman M.A. Salman, former World Bank Adviser on Water
Law and Editor-in-Chief, International Water Law

A synthesis of theoretical and practical aspects
of the water diplomacy framework to resolve
complex water problems
Complex water problems cannot be resolved by numbers or narratives. Contingent and negotiated approaches are
necessary for actionable outcome. In the face of constantly changing array of interconnected water issues that cross
multiple boundaries, the challenge is how to translate solutions that emerge from science and technology into the context of
the real-world policy and politics. Water Diplomacy in Action addresses this task by synthesizing two emerging ideas—
complexity science and negotiation theory—to understand and manage risks and opportunities for an uncertain water
future. Rooted in the ideas of complexity science and mutual gains negotiation, this edited volume shows why traditional
systems engineering approaches may not work for complex problems, what emerging tools and techniques are needed
and how these are used to resolve complex water problems.

This edited volume starts with the premise that neither numbers nor narratives are adequate to understand, govern,
and manage complex water problems. We need a synthesis of numbers and narratives, theory and practice, and objectivity
and interpretation to resolve complex water issues. It begins with the age-old metaphor of the blind men and the
elephant as a way to introduce ideas of complexity science and contingent approaches needed to resolve water problems.
The book is broadly structured in three parts: the first two parts focus on theory—why, what and how of complexity—
of complex water problems (Chapters 1 through 9) while the third part describes and analyzes case studies on how to
resolve complex water problems (Chapters 10 through 15).
