"In the past the joint use of transboundary rivers was often seen as entailing major security-related conflict potentials. In the late 1980s and particularly during the 1990s blaring headlines like 'Water Wars,' 'Water More Precious than Gold,' or 'Water Seen as Fuel for Military Conflicts' drew the public's attention to potential or existing use conflicts along transboundary water bodies. Rising consumption and the asymmetrical hydropolitical relations between countries fuelled the assumption that water shortages would just about inevitably lead to violent conflict. A much-cited example was conflict among the riparian countries along the Nile and Euphrates- Tigris; the relations between the riparian countries of Southern Africa were likewise seen as a potential source of conflict."
