WOUTERS, P., V. DUKHOVNY and ed3last (eds.), Implementing integrated water resources management in Central Asia, Dordrecht : Springer, 2007, XII, 177 p.
The problems afflicting the Aral Sea and its environs as a result of the overuse and abuse of the rivers flowing into it are well documented. Until now, however, it was difficult to hear the voices of those responsible for actually managing those waters. This volume reproduces the proceedings of an Advanced Research Workshop held in Bishkek, which brought together all the most senior water resource managers in Central Asia, from Ministers to local experts and eminent academics. It describes, from the practitioner's perspective, the problems encountered in the region's efforts to implement integrated water resources management and solutions that have been put in place in order to address these. The book sets out the approaches taken by each basin state, by way of the institutional, legal and financial frameworks adopted by them. It details the management practices that have been utilized in order both to surmount potential inter-state conflicts arising from water use disagreements and to make the best use of the available water, and it provides practical examples demonstrating how IWRM has been implemented at more local levels.

MICKLIN, P.P., Managing water in Central Asia, London : Royal Institute of International Affairs, 2000, 72 p.
This paper is an evaluation of the use of water by the riparian Central Asian states, with a primary focus on Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan. The paper discusses the basins water resource geography along with other critical water issues including irrigated agriculture, the Aral Sea problem, water sharing among the basin states, national water politics, and the future of water management. These complicated management issues are central to understanding and tackling the environmental and agricultural challenges confronting Central Asia, and also have the potential to generate conflicts both within and between states.

RICHARD, V., La coopération sur la gestion des cours d'eau internationaux en Asie, Paris : Documentation française, 2005, 460 p.
Le XXIe siècle s'annonce comme celui des conflits sur l'eau. C'est dans ce contexte que le livre aborde le problème vital de la gestion des cours d'eau internationaux en Asie. L'étude s'interesse à des bassins hydrographiques liés au Gange-Brahmapoutre, au Mékong et à la mer d'Aral. Des considérations géographiques et géopolitiques, dans une perspective à la fois historique et actuelle constituent le point de départ d'une analyse juridique. C'est surtout le juriste internationaliste qui trouvera dans cet ouvrage une abondante source d'information au croisement du droit international de l'environnement, du droit du développement et économique et des droits de l'homme. Ainsi sont traitées des thématiques tels le concept du développement durable, le droit des cours d'eau internationaux, les traités sur l'eau et la coopération institutionnelle en Asie, les conflits persistants et les outils financiers et commerciaux pour la gestion des ressources en eau.

Water resources management is receiving increasing attention worldwide due to the considerable challenges that face the quantitative and qualitative aspects of water. These challenges are attributed to a multitude of factors, including the significant increase in population, urbanization and environmental degradation. Such factors are more apparent in the South Asian Sub-continent (Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan) than many other parts of the world. Moreover, the problems of the Sub-continent are compounded by the fact that it encompasses some 20 major international rivers. As a result, the Sub-continent has had to deal with some of the most difficult disputes over international rivers, while at the same time it has been successful in designing some interesting methods for cooperation. This book focuses on the hydro-politics and legal regime of international water in the Sub-continent. It discusses the bilateral treaty regimes between India and Pakistan, India and Nepal, India and Bangladesh over some of the major shared rivers between them. This book also provides an overview of main issues and common elements regarding shared rivers among these countries.

This brief article examines the case for applying a shared benefits strategy to the development of an international river basin as a substitute for the more traditional method of allocating a basin's water supply among riparian nations bordering an international river. The article traces the origin of the theory, articulates several objections, and examines two case studies of shared benefits. The concept of benefits sharing with respect to water is said to have originated in the negotiations over the Canada-United States Columbia River Treaty. The second case study considers the Amu and Syr Darya basins in Central Asia.
