Reihe: Earthscan Studies in Water Resource Management

This book examines the legal protection and management of inland waters in Europe.

With inland waters facing a range of significant threats, including from climate change, pollution, and overexploitation, this volume discusses legal solutions for protecting and managing these inland waters. It presents comparative studies from a range of European countries, including the Czech Republic, Germany, France, Lithuania, Poland, and Spain, with each chapter examining the legal status and legal instruments being implemented in each country, allowing for easy cross-comparison. Topics covered include surface water management and protection, water quality and monitoring, management of hazardous substances, and crisis management. Through these unique comparative studies, the volume highlights legal solutions which can be adopted by other nations and used as models for wider implementation across Europe. In doing so, this book offers important recommendations for changing water law to ensure a water secure future in Europe.

This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of water law, water resource management, environmental policy, and environmental conservation.
