Abstract: Understanding the diversity of urban water regimes in Europe require dealing with governance instruments, actors strategies and institutional environment. To embrace it, we propose a typology of synchronous urban water regimes delineating four ideal forms. We highlight how actors strategies are embedded in institutional regimes and how sustainability perspectives depend on this urban configuration. It gives insights on sustainable transitions: their feasibility, constraints and opportunities.
