Title
Crafting Institutions for SelfGoverning Irrigation Systems,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Many largescale irrigation projects established in developing countries have failed despite huge inputs of foreign aid because the institutions for opening and maintaining the projects proved inadequate. Ostrom counsels planners to look beyond a narrow concern with engineering and to let irrigation consumers involve themselves in the design, operation, and maintenance of watersupply systems.
