Book Transnational Corporations in Urban Water Governance

Download or read book Transnational Corporations in Urban Water Governance written by Joyce Valdovinos and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-14 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the role played by business in urban water governance by analyzing the evolution of the global private water sector along with four public-private partnerships in Mexico and the U.S. The local nature of water services often hides the global developments behind the rise of transnational water corporations, which have gone from being local operators to becoming dynamic and powerful actors within an interconnected transnational space for water. This book focuses on the French groups Veolia and Suez, two of the most prominent private actors in global water governance, and the development and adaptation strategies of both companies in the cities of Aguascalientes, Mexico City, Atlanta, and Milwaukee over the past 30 years. Drawing on over 100 interviews conducted with corporate executives, public authorities, and local users of water services, this book moves beyond the simplistic dichotomy of the public-private debate and develops a theoretical framework that analyzes the economic and political power wielded by transnational business actors in global water governance. Not only does the book explain how Veolia and Suez strategically mobilize resources at difference scales in order to expand their global operations, but it also provides a nuanced picture of how state regulation remains of central importance to understanding the dynamics and evolution of the global water sector. Students and scholars interested in business and the environment, including public-private partnerships, business management and transnational corporations, and water governance, will find this book of great interest as will professionals and policymakers working in these fields.

Book Elusive Saviours

Download or read book Elusive Saviours written by Hans Heerings and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the UNCED process, government delegates from the North and the South were unable to agree on clear and binding global environmental regulations. In the wake of this stalemate in international politics, the international business community projected itself as a 'problem solver' - the green alternative. Where governments could not agree on a strategy for sustainable development, the business community stepped in with its own strategies. Transnational corporations have tremendous economic power. They are certainly in a position to encourage and promote sustainable development. But they are also the source of many local and international environmental problems. Are they truly in a position to become the new green guide? How good are their plans for sustainable development? Is their pervasive economic power an obstacle or a lever for sustainable development? Hans Heerings and Ineke Zeldenrust explore these questions in Elusive Saviours, comparing the present - post-UNCED - practice of transnational corporations with their promises. They conclude that, while transnationals have adopted many new environmental measures, these fail to promote sustainable development. Transnational corporations, by the very nature of their internationality, are able to evade countries with strict environmental legislation. It is clearer than ever that we need internationally binding environmental regulations.
