description

In this chapter, the role of river contracts in European and national water policies has been analyzed, by observing the two paradigmatic contexts of France and Italy. The comparative analysis undertaken both with respect to the experiences of water management policies and river contracts, allows to more deeply assess the governance processes of water resources and understand their political, legal and socio economic scopes. In addition, the comparison of these two national contexts has highlighted the opportunities for actual integration between practices of urban and territorial planning, and water management policies. The analysis has been specifically focused on the respective normative frameworks, water management tools, actors involved, and varying territorial and administrative structures.
