This forms the scope of the water industry's activities and it explains why the privatization of water sanitation and water services has become a huge market and a much-debated issue in a number of jurisdictions. Historically the water industry has been run as a public service which is owned by the local or national government; however, recent trends suggest that the role of the private sector is increasing. The growing economic interests concerning water and wastewater services are generating a tension with the recent recognition of the human right to water and sanitation. This tension between human right and economic rules is the focus of this book, which reviews all the international rules that form the regulation of global water services. Proposes a holistic legal analysis of the water services regulation Provides a comprehensive critical review of investment tribunals awards dealing with water services issues Offers a detailed analysis of the hard law and soft law that apply to water services 000040736 650_0 $$aWater resources development$$xLaw and legislation 000040736 650_0 $$aLaw$$xCommercial$$xInternational Trade 000040736 655_4 $$aElectronic books 000040736 85640 $$uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/wipo/detail.action?docID=4755970$$zView this Ebook 000040736 904__ $$aBook 000040736 942__ $$2ddc$$cEBOOK 000040736 980__ $$aBIB 000040736 980__ $$aOS
