The goal of this thesis is to study the Lesotho Highlands Water Project, which has been hailed as a win-win situation for both Lesotho and South Africa. Water is exported from the Lesotho Highlands to the Gauteng Province (the industrial hub of South Africa), while Lesotho has become a hydro electricity producer. The thesis describes the relationship between these two countries which is characterised by corporation, while contrasting it to the greater context of the continent of Africa, where conflict instead of corporation is routine when it comes to resources. The thesis will highlight the terms of agreement which were instrumental in achieving this collaborative corporation, and interrogate the "win-win" rhetoric by applying the project to transboundary water politics.The goal of this thesis is to study the Lesotho Highlands Water Project, which has been hailed as a win-win situation for both Lesotho and South Africa.
