(Location: IWMI-HQ Call no: 631.7 G374 MCL Record No: H03244)
Problems affecting the management of water resources in developing countries are identified and discussed. These include short-term planning, water rights, inability to learn from experience, planning in isolation, the "think big" syndrome, lack of direct accountability, shortage of resources, lack of socio-economic analysis, the bureaucratic bias, absence of an ecological overview, and the problem of incrementalism. These problems are applied to the Canadian scene and those involved in water policy and management are challenged in a series of searching questions. It is seen that the management of Canadian water resources, in practice, has many shortcomings and would benefit from the hard-won experiences of Third World countries.
