Study on coordinating mode of intergovernmental relations in water resources management of river basins: Based on water resources integrated management in river basin

Abstract

Shortage of water resources and aggravation of water environment have become important factors of restricting Chinese economic and social development. Faced with severe water crisis, it is the certain selection that realizes an integrated management of overall river basin to abide by natural law of water resources circle. Due to lag of the political system reform and imperfection of related systems, interrelation among multitudinous river basin management organizations is complexity and chaos; contradictions- among central and local governments, among different local governments- have seriously hindered improvement of water resources management efficiency and effective protection of water environment. To solve these problems, we can construct intergovernmental contradictions' coordination mode with restruction of river basin management organizations' function at the core, so as to reduce contradictions among multitudinous river basin management organizations, increase management efficiency of water resources, and achieve effective protection and sustainable development of water environment.
