Abstract
Can the recent rise of Dutch
multifunctional flood defenses be explained by the increased integration
between the water and spatial planning sectors, which compels Water Boards to
collaborate with municipalities? An enquiry into the changing relations between
water managers and municipalities as a result of changes in spatial and
water-management regulations starting in the 1980s, and particularly since
2000s, indicates this hypothesis to be wrong.
