This open access book provides the motivation to the work, realizing that water availability and its quality have become limiting factors for economic growth of various nations and leading to inefficient use of water and loss of welfare. Increased impacts of various processes, including intensification of climate change impacts on various water-dependent sectors, population growth, and a rise in standards of living in different parts of the world calls for institutional interventions that were proven successful in recent years and various places. The monograph reviews the development of various institutions in the water sector, implemented under different contexts, time periods, scales, types of water use, and several other specifications. The Introduction describes also the organization of the monograph.

About the Author
Ariel Dinar is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Environmental Economics and Policy in the School of Public Policy and Professor of the Graduate Division at the University of California, Riverside (UCR). His work addresses economic and strategic behavior associated with management of water and the environment. Dr Dinar worked at the World Bank on water and climate change economics and policy. In 2008, Dr Dinar assumed a professorship at UCR and founded and directed the Water Science and Policy Center. He has been a Fulbright Senior Specialist since 2003 and was named a 2015 Fellow of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association. During his nearly half a century of engagement in water, agricultural and environmental economics work he published/co-published 35 books, 208 peer reviewed papers in leading water, agricultural and environmental economics journals, and 57 book chapters.
Mehdi Nemati is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Economics and Policy at the University of California, Riverside’s School of Public Policy, where he also directs the Water Dialogue Lab. His research applies advanced econometric and data-driven methods to pressing water-management and environmental-policy challenges, with a particular focus on California and the greater Colorado River Basin. Dr. Nemati collaborates closely with water agencies, utilities, and regional governments to translate rigorous empirical evidence into actionable policy solutions that enhance water affordability, resilience, and sustainability. He has secured more than $2 million in competitive research funding from federal, state, and foundation sources, and his work regularly informs public discourse through media outlets such as The Los Angeles Times, CNBC, and MIT Technology Review. Dr. Nemati’s scholarship spans the intersection of water economics, climate adaptation, and behavioral policy design. His peer-reviewed publications, appearing in journals such as Resource and Energy Economics, Land Economics, and Water Resources Research, investigate topics ranging from urban water affordability and conservation behavior to the economic impacts of land subsidence and drought. He is a co-author of forthcoming chapters in the Oxford University Press and Edward Elgar volumes on climate change and transboundary water management.
Sravika Pillarisetty is a third-year undergraduate student at the University of California, Riverside (UCR), studying Public Policy on the pre-law track. She is concurrently a Master’s in Public Policy at UCR, aiming to bridge the gap between the development of policy and its implementation as law using both the MPP and JD to work in government and policymaking. While she has worked in the legal sector to help underserved populations, she has also focused on policy work in the housing, envinmental, and social justice sectors to bridge the said gap. By using a legal lens to analyze policies and institutions, she identifies efficient and unique perspectives for solutions and research.

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
