This book establishes a framework for defining transboundary water cooperation and a methodology for evaluating its effectiveness, which will contribute to more effective and therefore successful cooperation processes. With the increasing focus on transboundary cooperation as a part of the Sustainable Development Goal Framework, there is global recognition of transboundary water cooperation as a tool for improved governance and management of transboundary surface and groundwaters. However, there is not an agreed upon definition of transboundary water cooperation in the literature or in practice. This book develops the Four Frames of Transboundary Water Cooperation, which is a neutral modular framework for developing context-specific explanatory definitions of transboundary water cooperation in basins and aquifers. The Four Frames of Cooperation are legal, institutional, relational, and outcome. However, we need to move beyond defining cooperation to understand better measures of the quality and effectiveness of cooperative processes. The Weighted Model of Effective Cooperation presents a first step in qualitatively evaluating the effectiveness of transboundary water cooperation. This model defines effective transboundary water cooperation and operationalizes a method to evaluate the effectiveness of cooperative processes over internationally shared waters. Effective cooperation emphasizes the relational and outcome frames of cooperation while working towards equitability and sustainability. Together, the Four Frames of Cooperation and the Weighted Model of Effective Cooperation will improve the understanding of cooperation and encourage a detailed evaluation of the quality, success, and effectiveness of cooperative processes. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of water resource management, water governance, and environmental politics. It will also appeal to policymakers and professionals working in the fields of water conflict, water diplomacy, and international cooperation.

This review examines the state of conflict and cooperation over transboundary water resources from an environmental, political, and human development perspective. Although the potential for outright war between countries over water is low, cooperation is often missing in disputes over transboundary resources. This background chapter will - Provide a brief overview of the nature of conflict and experiences of cooperation over transboundary resources. - Provide a conceptual basis for understanding cooperation and the costs of noncooperation over water. - Indicate the possible triggers for conflict over water sharing and the implications on the livelihoods of ordinary communities. - Offer evidence on the potential costs of noncooperation or even conflict over water resources. - Analyze power asymmetries between riparian states and how they affect the outcomes of negotiations. - Analyze different examples of cases that countries have used to manage the competition for water resources. - Propose general principles and conclusions on conflict and cooperation.

To Polat (international law and politics, Middle East Technical U., Ankara, Turkey), Central Asia extends from the Caspian Sea in the west to China in the east; and from Siberian Russia in the north to Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan in the south. He combines perspectives from international law, international politics, and political geography to examine issues regarding borders between the states created by or after the breakup of the Soviet Union. Among these issues are the legal framework, the degree of contentment with existing frontiers, the legacy of Soviet border disputes with China, and transboundary bodies of water.
