The paper explores the application of System Archetypes in Hydropolitics. It portrays potential unintended behaviours of identified archetypes in transboundary basins named in the paper Hydropolitical System Archetypes (HSA), and supportive environments to host and nurture these system mechanisms.

The paper ends with a diagnostic checklist that helps riparian states recognise patterns of behaviour they may face in the future. It lays the groundwork for gaining insight into using system archetypes in projecting plausible hydropolitical behaviours and understanding pas behaviours in transboundary systems.
