This thesis is expanded greatly in my 2016 book, THE ONCE AND FUTURE OCEAN -- Notes Toward a New Hydraulic Society, which is available for e-book download via Amazon.com. The book contains many ideas and examples of how this change might be effected. India of course has been, and remains, at the forefront of both good and not so good water management schemes. The controversy surrounding the present massive restructuring of water systems might be better framed and understood in the context of "hydraulic society" as the paradigm for value, structure, behavior, and survival in the 21st century. How I would love to spread this message in India and see such a Society exist to promote the concept. Thanks for your interest. PN
