This volume explores the role of water in the Middle East's current economic, political and environmental transformations, which are set to continue in the near future.

They interrogate how competition over water resources may precipitate or affect war in the Middle East, and assess whether or how resource vulnerability impacts fragile states and societies in the region and beyond.
