 Due to increasingly lower availability of water in many parts of the world, water has more and more become a „political commodity“. In fact, some conflicts have also been fought because of water. Politics and laws do also play a role in areas with plenty of water recources – just think of ownership laws and rights of disposal, which always gain more importance in times when this vital element becomes a commercial commodity. As a matter of fact, the protection of this resource is embodied in essential bodies of law.
