A River Flows Through It: A Comparative Study of Transboundary Water Disputes and Cooperation in Asia explores water disputes in Asia and addresses the question of how states sharing a river system can be incentivized to cooperate. Water scarcity is a major environmental, societal, and economic problem around the world. Increasing demand for water as a result of rapid economic development, high population growth and density has depleted the world’s water resources, leading to floods, droughts, environmental disasters, and societal displacement. Shared river basins are therefore often a source of tension and conflict between states. In regions where relations between countries have historically been conflictual, scarce river water resources have exacerbated tensions and have even sparked wars. Yet, more often than not, states sharing a river basin are able to come to some form of agreement, whether they are far-reaching ones such as water-sharing agreements or those that are more limited such as the sharing of hydrological data. Why do riparian states cooperate, especially when power asymmetries between upstream and downstream countries are characteristic of transboundary river basins? How do non-state actors affect the management of international rivers? What are the conditions that facilitate or hinder cooperation? This book wrestles with these questions by exploring water disputes and cooperation in the major river systems in Asia, and by comparing them with cases in Africa, Europe, and the United States. This book will be of great value to scholars, students, and policymakers interested in transboundary water disputes and cooperation, hydro-diplomacy, and river activism. It was originally published as special issues of Water International.

This is a comprehensive collection of data on the treaty law of Indonesia which has its origin in the assumption that the availability of these data is among the preconditions for a correct understanding of the Indonesian international position and its international rights and duties. There is no official collection of Indonesian treaties in existence. Part One presents a concise description of the Indonesian law and practice concerNing treaty-making power and the publication of treaties. It deals with the constitutional provisions and their interpretation and application and places them in a wider perspective. Part Two comprises chronological indexes of multilateral and bilateral treaties. These indexes contain data on forty items, where available, regarding each treaty, such as the sources of the texts, the subject matter, the Indonesian consent to be bound, Indonesian reservations and declarations, the date of ratification, amendments, revisions and replacement. These main indexes are supplemented by a subject index and indexes of Acts of Approval and Presidential Ratification Decrees which are published in the Indonesian State Gazette. The volume will be of use to practising lawyers involved in Indonesian transactions, officials in the field of international relations involving Indonesia and academic researchers on the international law of treaties.
