As a legal principle, reciprocity plays a strong role in the formation, interpretation and maintenance of international law. Implementing this framework, the book examines the development of the law of international watercourses, highlighting how this basic legal principle is a foundational notion. It applies the framework to China and offers insights into one of the most important transboundary states in Asia. As a primarily upstream state, China is of great significance to its transboundary neighbours, however, there remain significant hurdles, misunderstandings and mistrust between China and its neighbours. China is faced with a complex challenge - how to meet its own development needs while also taking into consideration its primarily downstream neighbours? By focusing on this prominent state this work not only fosters a greater understanding of the law of international watercourses within China, but also clarifies and challenges current perceptions of China's transboundary water treaty practice. More generally, the book provides a past, present and future view on international watercourse law, starting with an analysis of the UN Watercourses Convention and UNECE Water Convention leading to a discussion of reciprocity's continued influence as well as charting a path forward. This book will be of great interest to legal students and scholars with an interest in international watercourses, environmental politics and international law, as well as students and scholars interested in Chinese politics and natural resource management and conflict"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Water resources development $x History. $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Water-supply $x History. $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Water rights $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Water rights (International law) $x History. 650 7 $a Water resources development $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01171999 650 7 $a Water rights. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01172066 650 7 $a Water rights (International law) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01172078 650 7 $a Water-supply $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01172388 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Devlaeminck, David J. $t Reciprocity and china's transboundary waters. $d Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2021 $z 9780429291753 $w (DLC) 2020025946 830 0 $a Earthscan studies in water resource management. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020025039.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=083A3CFC9F4311EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
