The book also analyses how Turkeys harmonization with the European Union has impacted the transboundary water policy discourses and practices, and how these changes have been reflected in its relations with its Middle Eastern neighbours. Turkey was one of the three countries that rejected the UN Watercourses Convention in 1997. Yet, since the voting of the convention there have been changes in Turkeys stance vis-- vis international water law, which the book studies. Turkeys water diplomacy embodies complex water managem.
