摘要

与世界上许多大型终端湖泊一样,伊朗西北部的乌尔米耶咸水湖正在经历一个干涸的过程。预计由此带来的经济、社会、环境和健康后果将十分严峻。我们着手研究过去二十年中为应对湖泊危机而制定的政策。我们重点关注了乌尔米耶湖恢复计划(ULRP)提出的一系列措施,并解释了为什么这些措施对节水的影响被夸大,而潜在的最有效措施却被放弃。然后,我们讨论了导致这种状况的各种社会、制度和政治因素。确定并理解一系列政治和其他因素,这些因素不仅阻碍了适当的补救措施,而且助长了水资源的过度开发,这对我们理解如何避免水资源不可持续的未来至关重要。

Chronicle of a disaster foretold: The politics of restoring Lake Urmia (Iran)

Like many of the world’s large-scale terminal lakes, the Urmia saltwater lake in northwestern Iran is undergoing a process of desiccation. The anticipated economic, social, environmental and health consequences of this are daunting. We set out to examine the policies that have been designed in response to the lake crisis in the past twenty years. We focus on the set of measures proposed by the Urmia Lake Restoration Program (ULRP) and explain why their impact on water savings are overstated while the potentially most effective measures are abandoned. We then discuss the various social, institutional and political factors that have led to this state of affairs. Identifying and understanding the array of political and other factors that combine not only to impede appropriate remedial measures but also to fuel the overexploitation of water are essential to our comprehension of how to avert unsustainable water futures.

期刊介绍: World Development is a multi-disciplinary monthly journal of development studies. It seeks to explore ways of improving standards of living, and the human condition generally, by examining potential solutions to problems such as: poverty, unemployment, malnutrition, disease, lack of shelter, environmental degradation, inadequate scientific and technological resources, trade and payments imbalances, international debt, gender and ethnic discrimination, militarism and civil conflict, and lack of popular participation in economic and political life. Contributions offer constructive ideas and analysis, and highlight the lessons to be learned from the experiences of different nations, societies, and economies.
