| contents | This paper examines the limitations of the hydro-hegemony framework in explaining and addressing transboundary water conflicts, particularly in the Nile, Jordan, and Mekong River Basins. It argues that a more nuanced approach, incorporating adaptive governance and benefit-sharing mechanisms, offers a more sustainable and equitable pathway to water resource management. The traditional hydro-hegemonic perspective often overemphasizes the power dynamics and control exerted by upstream states, neglecting the potential for cooperation and the diverse interests of downstream stakeholders. Through comparative analysis, this research explores how adaptive governance, characterized by flexibility, learning, and stakeholder engagement, can foster collaborative water management strategies. Furthermore, it investigates the application of benefit-sharing arrangements, which move beyond a focus solely on water allocation to encompass a broader range of shared benefits, such as energy production, food security, and ecosystem services. The study highlights the challenges and opportunities associated with implementing these alternative approaches, drawing on empirical evidence from the three case study basins to provide insights into their effectiveness and replicability in other transboundary contexts. Ultimately, this paper advocates for a shift from a zero-sum, power-based paradigm to a more collaborative and integrated approach that prioritizes the long-term sustainability and equitable distribution of water resources. |
