The paper comments on the development of an international movement towards both sustainability and subsidiarity in the management of large river basins, and also stresses the significance of river basins for their sense of place and symbolism as environmental territory. Two contrasting efforts are compared, in the developed world (European Community) through the Freshwater Europe Campaign, and in the developing world through the lead-in to the Earth Summit. Finally, suggestions are made that the best manifesto for the problem of water and development is an ecosystems approach to the river basin, modified by a greater use of approaches from social science and objectives of social justice. |
