该书于2020年由格致出版社出版,在2021年获得浙江省第21届哲学社会科学优秀成果奖二等奖。本书在对人类水文化历史回溯基础上,立足已有研究成果,分析国际水事件的地理分布、形成原因和导致的结果(损害)。将全球分为南亚、中东、北非、东南亚、中亚与欧洲等六个区域,从水资源学、经济学、公共治理与国际关系的跨学科视角,分析区域水资源利用与水事件的特征,揭示其社会、经济、文化及历史的诱致原因,进而对现有协调机制的绩效和问题进行分析,最后提出解决机制的优化方案。

该研究成果有别于主要从水资源和地缘政治角度的现有研究,而是基于水文学及水资源、经济学、生态学及国际关系等理论,从自然资源禀赋、社会经济、历史文化、地缘政治等综合视角对跨境水事件的产生根源进行深入分析,从全球时空上再现了跨境流域的水资源利用与分配,极大地拓展了传统水文学及水资源学科的研究边界,促进水资源与社会、经济、文化、民族主义等因素的互动与融合,促进多学科在国际自然资源利用与分配中的发展与应用。研究成果创新性提出经济-科技资源政治等跨学科的国际解决方案。为确保全球流域安全、能源安全提供国际解决方案。
