The Human Right to Water: Justice . . . or Sham?

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“I warmly commend Dr. Fiechter-Widemann's book, simply because it is a unique way of presenting a fundamental question that remains of great import. Safe drinking water should be available to everyone on this planet. It is a real challenge that the United Nations and several international agencies have neglected in recent decades. The author points to the responsibility of governments for serious good water governance. This impressive book, with its many theological and philosophical analyses, restores with emphasis the human rights dimension to water. A truly unique interdisciplinary work.”
