Abstract
Panic over imminent water wars has been gaining currency since the notorious claim in 1995
of Ismail Serageldin, then vice-president of the World Bank, that “the wars of the next
century will be about water.” More recently, water has been called the next battleground of
Asia,1
and such fears prevail in the public imagination despite a long-standing academic
consensus that outright wars over water resources are a highly unlikely proposition.
