The Commodification of Water, Social Protest
and Cosmopolitan Citizenship

I am presently Principal Investigator for a research project jointly funded by the ESRC and AHRB, 'The Commodification of Water, Social Protest and Cosmopolitan Citizenship' as part of their Research Programme 'Cultures of Consumption'. The project explores the links between the status of 'global consumer' and patterns of global governance around water in the context of private sector participation in water delivery to households, its consequences and social protest.

Further information on this project is available.
