An Inquiry Into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria
Watershed or Water Shared? An Inquiry into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria Submitted in fulfillment of the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Barry Hancock May 2010 Well, you see Willard … In this war, things get confused out there - power, ideals, the old morality and practical military necessity. Out there with these natives it must be a temptation to be good because there's a conflict in every human heart between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil. The good does not always triumph. Sometimes the dark side overcomes what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature. Every man has got a breaking point – both you and I have. Walter Kurtz has reached his. And very obviously, he has gone insane (Apocalypse Now). ii Abstract This thesis explores the politics associated with rural water reform in Victoria. The specific focus of the thesis is on the period from 1980 through to the time of submission in May 2010. During this period, the rural water sector has undergone radical reform in Victoria. Initially, reforms were driven by a desire to improve the operational efficiency of the State’s rural water sector. With the growing realisation that water extractions were pressing against the limits of sustainable yield, the focus of the reform agenda shifted to increasing the economic efficiency derived from every megalitre of water. By early 2000, the focus of the rural water reform changed as prolonged drought impacted on the reliability of water supply for the irrigation community. The objective of the latest round of reforms was to improve the efficiency of water usage as the scarcity became more acute.
