AMAYA VENTURA, Ma. de Lourdes. Institutional aspects of water management in Pachuca, Hidalgo. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2011, vol.73, n.3, pp.509-537. ISSN 2594-0651.

This essay uses institutional analysis to review certain aspects of the problem of the Water and Sewage of Inter-Municipal Systems, the organization responsible for water management in 11 municipalities in Hidalgo. Focusing particularly on the municipality of Pachuca de Soto, the author describes the structure of the local water management system, the incentives it contains and certain specific situations involving the three orders of government in handling the resource. The proposal is to extend the institutional analysis of water management, which is normally performed only through the economic approach.

Palabras llave : water management; institucional analysis; intermunicipal organization; incentives; Pachuca de Soto.
