    The Evolution of Water Diplomacy Frameworks: The Euphrates-Tigris Basin as a Case Study
    (Springer, 2024) Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül
    Water diplomacy encompasses the processes and institutions through which the national interests and identities of sovereign states are represented to one another. It is enshrined in international law, which states use to explain and justify their policies to concerned actors in the international system. States mostly prefer traditional tools of water diplomacy such as negotiation and mediation to resolve disputes in transboundary river basins. This chapter explores water diplomacy along with its main principles and actors. On the one hand, the state has been the main actor in shaping transboundary water policies and conducting water diplomacy throughout the last few decades of water disputes. On the other hand, international organizations, international financial agencies, non-governmental organizations, and science-policy (Track II) initiatives also participate in water diplomacy. A brief discussion of emerging water diplomacy approaches is followed by a case study on the evolution of water diplomacy frameworks in the Euphrates-Tigris river basin.

    Water Resources Management in the Lower Asi-Orontes River Basin: Issues and Opportunities
    (Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies and MEF University, 2016) Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül; Jaubert, Ronald
    This book is a product of the International Workshop, “Water Resources Management in the Asi-Orontes River Basin: Issues and Opportunities,” whichwas convened at MEF University in Istanbul in November 2014. The workshopwas attended by a group of distinguished academics, experts, policy-makers, andpractitioners. It was organized as part of a research program on the Orontes Riverbasin led by the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies withthe support of the Global Program Water Initiatives of the Swiss Development andCooperation Agency. The program aims to analyze water management challengesand perspectives in the Asi-Orontes River basin and to establish a multidisciplinary scientific and technical network on water management including Lebanese,Syrian and Turkish organizations. The first phase of the program initiated in 2012focused on upper and the middle reaches of the Asi-Orontes River basin. The second phase includes the lower reach of the basin largely located in the Hatay province in Turkey.

    Türkiye Sulama Yönetimi Politikaları ve Sulama Birlikleri
    (..., 2022) Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül
    Kalkınmakta olan ülkelerde 1990’lı yıllardan buyana sulamada idari, mali ve teknik açıdan verimlilik ve hakkaniyet sağlamak amacıyla geniş sulama alanlarından sorumlu olan çok sayıda su kullanıcı örgütleri (Sulama Birliği) kurulmuştur. Sulama sistemlerinin yönetiminin 1990’lı yılların başında hızlı bir biçimde Sulama Birliklerine devir edilmesiyle, Türkiye sulama suyu yönetimi konusunda önemli deneyimler geçirmiştir. Türkiye’nin bu alandaki deneyimleri, sulama yönetiminde reformların verimlilik ve hakkaniyet açısından başarılı olabilmesi için sulamadaki tüm paydaşlar arasında katılımcılık ve oydaşmanın sağlanmasının önemini ortaya koymuştur.

    Sustainability of Engineered Rivers in Arid Lands: Challenge and Response
    (Cambridge University Press, 2021-09-16) Schmandt, Jurgen; Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül; Buono, R.M.; Thomas, S.
    This interdisciplinary volume examines how nine arid or semi-arid river basins with thriving irrigated agriculture are doing now and how they may change between now and mid-century. The rivers studied are the Colorado, Euphrates-Tigris, Jucar, Limarí, Murray-Darling, Nile, Rio Grande, São Francisco, and Yellow. Engineered dams and distribution networks brought large benefits to farmers and cities, but now the water systems face multiple challenges, above all climate change, reservoir siltation, and decreased water flows. Unchecked, they will see reduced food production and endanger the economic livelihood of basin populations. The authors suggest how to respond to these challenges without loss of food production, drinking water, or environmental health. The analysis of the political, hydrological, and environmental conditions within each basin gives policymakers, engineers, and researchers interested in the water/sustainability nexus a better understanding of engineered rivers in arid lands. © Jurgen Schmandt, Aysegu¨l Kibaroglu, Regina M.

    The European Union as a Distinctive Actor in Global Climate Change Policy
    (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi, Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Uluslararası İlişkiler Anabilim Dalı, 2015) Bağcı, Hüseyin; Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül
    This dissertation focus on the relationship with the international climate change policy and key actors’ positions on global climate negotiations. The main aim of this dissertation is to show that the European Union takes a different position than other international actors in terms of international climate change negotiation and policy. This distinction stems from the founding philosophy of the European Union and its environmentalist tradition. The argument of this dissertation is that whereas nation-states in general, great emitter states in particular, emphasize their national interests regarding climate change issues, the EU behaves in different way. This different behavior stems from the factors of ‘logic of action,’ ‘supranational decision-making mechanism’ and ‘its concern of spreading the EU standards.’ Despite the fact that there are different views on climate change policy among the EU members and the EU (because it is itself a great emitting body), these factors enable the EU to behave differently than other actors in the international climate change process.

    Politics of Water Resources Under the Impacts of Climate Change: Turkey and Beyond
    (The Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences, Bilkent University and the Istanbul Policy Center, Sabancı University, 2015) Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül
    Climate change is frequently made out to be amongst the key security challenges of the 21st century. Not only popular media but also official policy documents and academic accounts frequently raise the alarm over the conflict potential in a future shaped by increasing variability and exacerbating change in climatic patterns. Nature that sustains us, as the socio-ecological metabolism of our modern societies, has now increasingly come to be seen as a threat to humanity’s very survival. The increase in mean temperatures, climate variability, extreme weather events and rising sea levels are but few of the many future scenarios anticipated to increase social vulnerability and trigger social unrest. Not only already volatile parts of Sub-Saharan Africa and Sahel but also the Mediterranean and the Middle East are said to be amongst the regions most exposed to climate risks, whereby geopolitical, social and climate instability coincide.

    Water–energy–food Nexus in a Transboundary Context: the Euphrates–tigris River Basin as a Case Study
    (Taylor & Francis, 2015-08-25) Gürsoy, Sezin Iba; Kibaroğlu, Ayşegül
    The interlinkage between water, energy and food security and its transboundary relevance is becoming increasingly important. The paper analyses the evolution of transboundary water resources management in the Euphrates–Tigris basin with specific reference to interlinkages between water, food and energy policies at national and transboundary levels, and it explores how the policy shifts at the highest decision-making level have served to produce synergies for cooperation among the riparians or vice versa.
