The process of water management is closely intertwined with political and ecological issues in the world. Modern civilizations largely depend on hydrological issues for developing new social organizations and competing with the economies that are less dependent on water. In this regard, the reading discloses the connection between irrigation systems and political regimes that existed throughout civilization histories. Like desert civilizations depend on the successful management of water, modern societies should define new conditions for creating a single-centered society based on enacting other than water resources.
Due to fact that the history of communist governments of the United States, former the Soviet Union, and modern Eurasian countries enacted anti-ecological water management practices, they have left a deplorable inheritance for the next generations. To prevent further waste of ecological resources, the concerned citizens should pay the closest attention to the formation of specific strategies for handling and preventing natural disasters. By reshaping the physical environment, there is a potential threat for an economic and political recession of civilizations, until certain legal and ecological measures are taken to eliminate those threats. About the history of hydrology civilizations, modern societies should be aware of the consequences of hydrological breakdown for their economical systems.
Politically viewing the situation, the citizens should realize that water mismanagement can lead to disaster. Overusing water resources and the ignorance of ecological threats should not be on the list of deliberate policies of the government. On the contrary, the concerned citizens should look for other unlimited sources for the further development and advancement of their communities. What is more, the government should be more focused on mobilizing other available resources for enhancing the national economy.
