The global water crisis is a complex multifaceted global problem that affects all aspects of human life. Solutions to and research on the global water crisis often treat water issues as a monolithic problem that can be solved with large-scale top-down solutions. In this dissertation, I use theoretical and empirical analyses using network analysis, computational content analysis, and longitudinal fixed-effects regression analysis to argue that the global water crisis is actually two major interrelated crises, the crisis of water in human development and the environmental water crisis and that solutions that do not address the water crisis from a holistic perspective that considers both human and environmental needs may end up exacerbating future water needs. I interrogate the various interest groups that influence water solutions such as academia, international aid groups, national governments, and international non-governmental organizations. Chapter 1 introduces the global water crises, discusses the theoretical framework, and outlines the dissertation. Chapter 2 analyzes academic literature on water in human development and environmental water issues using a co-citation network analysis and demonstrates a lack of overlap in the academic literature across these two groups. Chapter 3 uses computational content analysis to analyze over 43,000 water aid projects over the past 70 years to show the trends, themes, and direction of water lending globally. The analysis finds that global water aid focuses primarily on human needs with environmental concerns being less common. In chapter 4, I use metabolic rift theory and longitudinal two-way fixed effects analysis to assess the internal and external factors that lead to increased levels of water access and decreased levels of water stress in nations around the globe. I find that there are very few factors that are associated with improvements in both environmental water needs and human development water needs. Finally, in the conclusion I discuss why taking a holistic perspective is so vital to solving large global problems. Solutions to the water crisis cannot be addressed in a piecemeal fashion. Academia, national governments, international organizations, and grassroots movements must work together to ensure a sustainable future for both humanity and the environment. .
