Abstract
Namibia draws 50 million cubic litres of water per annum from the Orange River, its southern border, with neighbouring South Africa. Elsewhere in Southern Africa, the Zambezi River Authority regulates the use of water from an international river according to the provision of the Helsinki Rules. Once considered ‘low politics’, the global environment is now firmly positioned as one of the primary issues — along with the global economy and security — that will determine the future of the region. What we are witnessing is the rise and functioning of issue-based regimes and their growing importance as new sites of governance, alongside states and other agencies.
