RODRIGUEZ-HAROS, Benito and PALERM-VIQUEIRA, Jacinta. Before transference: handing over water districts. agric. soc. desarro [online]. 2007, vol.4, n.2, pp.105-125. ISSN 1870-5472.
This essay deals with the experience and success reached by user's organizations that received four Irrigation Districts for their administration and operation in the 1940s. Case studies are meant to demonstrate that legislation regarding the hand-over of Irrigation Districts to organized users was fulfilled through a genuine public policy which, in addition, was effective. Administration by users of the Districts handed over had continuity until the legislation and transference policy from State administration to users in the decade of 1990.
Keywords : Administration; legislation; operation; users' organizations.
