International
Watercourses
Law in the Nile Basin
The
Nilo
River and irs basin extend over a distinctive geophysical cord connect¬
ing eleven sovereign states from Egypt to Tanzania, which are home to an esti¬
mated population of
238
million people. The Nile is an essential source of water
for domestic, industrial and agricultural uses throughout the basin, yet for more
than a century it has been at the centre of continuous and conflicting claims and
counter-claims to rights of utilization of the resource.
In this book the author examines the multifaceted legal regulation of the Nile.
He re-constructs the legal and historical origin and functioning of the British
Nile policies in Ethiopia by examining the composition of the Anglo-Ethiopian
Treaty of
1902,
and analyses its ramifications on contemporary riparian discourse
involving Ethiopia and Sudan. The book also reflects on two fairly established
legal idioms
—
the natural and historical rights expressions which constitute central
pillars of the claims of downstream rights in the Nile basin; the origin, essence
and legal authority of the notions has been assessed on the basis of the normative
dictates of contemporary international watercourses law. Likewise, the book
examines the
non-
treaty based claims of rights of the basin states to the Nile waters,
setting out what the equitable uses principle entails as a means of reconciling
competing riparian interests, and most importantly, how its functioning affects
contemporary legal settings.
The author then presents the concentrated diplomatic movements of the basin
states in negotiations on the Transitional Institutional Mechanism of the Nile
Basin Initiative
(ΝΒΓ)
-
pursued since the 1990 s, and explains why the substance
of water use rights still continued to be perceived diversely among basin states.
Finally, the specific legal impediments that held back progress in negotiations on
the Nile Basin Cooperative Framework are presented in context.
