Many water allocation agreements in transboundary river basins are inherently unstable. Due to stochastic river flow … agreements.To derive our main results we apply the Folk Theorem to the river sharing problem using the equilibrium concepts of …

We survey the economics of transboundary river water allocation, which emerged in the 1960s and has matured over the … attention to the strategic aspects of transboundary river water allocation. These strategic aspects are captured by employing … game theory to assess the economics of transboundary river water allocation in a simple model of river sharing. This model …

Using … cooperate and acknowledge property rights as a prerequisite for trade. Specifically, a complete market for river water may not …
