Abstract

This paper analyses imbalances of the European urban water sectors. The governance process significantly affects the dynamic of the sector, especially during the current modernization. Thus we propose an original framework taking into account economic and institutional interactions of the sector. The urban water system (UWS) provides a global insight of the urban water sector and its application to European cities gives some original results. The paper sets out the framework then we presents empirical results focus on utilities and on sustainability.
