Crafting Institutions for Self-Governing Irrigation Systems
Crafting Institutions for Self-Governing Irrigation Systems
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Many large-scale irrigation projects established in developing countries have failed - despite huge inputs of foreign aid - because the institutions for opening and maintaining the projects proved inadequate. Ostrom counsels planners to look beyond a narrow concern with engineering and to let irrigation consumers involve themselves in the design, operation, and maintenance of water-supply systems.
