Abstract

Governance principles concerning the development and utilization of freshwater resources derive from a variety of factors: historical and current patterns of usage, cultural and administrative norms and practices, and legal principles and policies. While governance of domestic surface water has benefitted from millennia of evolving practice, the legal principles regarding the development and utilization of transboundary freshwater resources emerged only during the mid-20th century and were codified towards the end of that century. The emergence of general rules and principles governing the use of groundwater resources is more recent still, as their systematic development began much later than the development of surface water. Similarly, the governance frameworks for unconventional water resources (UWR) are not yet well-developed, and legal gaps in regulating their exploitation and use have not yet been filled. This chapter presents an overview of legal theories and principles that are relevant to the design of the governance framework for both domestic and transboundary UWRs. The chapter focuses on legal aspects and attempts to predict how rights and obligations for various forms of UWR will emerge under current principles and practices.
