Özet

This chapter explores the potential contributions of peace science to the hydropolitical conflicts in Central Asia by focusing on the case of the conflict over the Rogun Dam between Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. In particular, the chapter seeks to identify the opportunity structures available to the conflicting parties through a mixed methodology involving the use of both quantitative and qualitative data about the hydropower resources, the water resources for agricultural use, the policy options of the two countries and the peaceful settlement alternatives. It is argued here that the change in Uzbekistan’s position on this conflict, from conflictual to more conciliatory, could be explained through an analysis of the available data related to hydropower resources and the water resources for agricultural use, as well as the relevant countries policy options and peaceful settlement alternatives.
