_Water Policy Science and Politics: An Indian Perspective_ presents
the importance of politics and science working together in
policymaking in the water sector. Many countries around the developed
and developing world, including India, are experiencing major water
scarcity problems that will undoubtedly increase with the impacts of
climate change. This book discusses specific topics in India’s
water, agriculture and energy sectors, focusing on scientific aspects,
academic and political discourse, and policy issues. The author
presents cases from the interrelated sectors of water resources,
supplies, sanitation, and energy and climate, including controversial
topics that illustrate how science and politics can work together.
* Challenges the linear and conventional approaches to water
management and water policymaking in India that are also applicable in
developing countries across South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa
* Presents best practice ideas and methods that help science and
politics work together
* Highlights a key gap of communication between science and policy
in water research, with solutions on how this can be addressed
