Abstract

This paper presents the results of the analysis of initiatives taken by selected European Union member-states concerning enhanced water protection with respect to ownership and management of water-resources and water distribution systems. Two of the countries studied have recently enacted their constitutional protection of water (Slovakia and Slovenia), one country is planning to reinforce the protection of water in its constitution (Czech Republic) and one state found the constitutional protection of water unnecessary (Finland). Whereas the reasons for (not) protecting water at the constitutional level vary widely, the common denominator is a strong support for protecting water as resource.
