Volume 2 explores the roles of, and limitations of, technologies and their applications in the management of transboundary water and wastewater. It presents case studies and legal, and political analyses that focus on the potential or actual roles and implications of the technologies in transboundary policy and management, rather than detailed explications of the technologies themselves.
