Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution
Abstract
Negotiation can take many forms and have different structures; however, I propose that establishing meetings between each states' leaders of their energy and environmental governmental bodies along with members of The Permanent Indus Commission, as they have dealt with similar concerns, would be the most beneficial and efficient method of resolving water use disputes. In Part II, I introduce relevant background information and examples of water use treaties and agreements that have proven to be successful either at maintaining or encouraging cooperation between various states. Part III will look into each state's current legislation and entities that manage water resources. Additionally, Part III examines the current international agreements and attempts at resolving disputes in the area. Part IV consists of my proposal which addresses alternative dispute resolution mechanisms and highlights negotiation as being best suited to address the specific issues that arise in this particular region.
