Description:
This is the first book-length text to offer a gender-differentiated analysis of water security that also shows the complex and multidimensional factors underpinning water security and gender, including geophysical, environmental, economic and a variety of socio-political processes
Explores the gender-water nexus through a range of different lenses, including institutional, theoretical, practical and regional perspectives
Uses new and original data and goes far beyond political ecology to explore the fields of power, conflicts and security from a gender perspective
