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 …
