Water without borders? : Canada, the United States and shared waters / edited by Emma S. Norman, Alice Cohen, and Karen Bakker.

Norman, Emma S. (Added Author). Cohen, Alice (Geographer) (Added Author). Bakker, Karen J. (Added Author).

Summary:

"Since 1909, the waters along the Canada-US border have been governed in accordance with the Boundary Water Treaty, but much has changed in the last 100 years. This engaging volume brings together experts from both sides of the border to examine the changing relationship between Canada and the US with respect to shared waters, as well as the implications of these changes for geopolitics and the environment. Water without Borders? is a timely publication given the increased attention to shared water issues, and particularly because 2013 is the United Nations International Year of Water Cooperation.
