ROMERO NAVARRETE, Lourdes. Conflicto y negociación por el agua del Nazas, 1888-1936: Del dominio público a la propiedad nacional. Región y sociedad [online]. 2006, vol.18, n.36, pp.147-176. ISSN 2448-4849.

This article shows the institutionalization of the water rights in Mexico, from the problems generated in the Laguna region, regarding the Nazas River, at the end of the XIX century and in first half of the XX century, and as a result of a process of conflict-negotiation which was associated with the ideological principles and the institutional structures of the democracy model adopted by the country in 1824. The research covers two moments of this process: the end of the porfirista government, during which the public dominion of the main currents and water bodies was decreed, and the post-revolution, when the water rights became real according to one of the emblematic principles of the Mexican democracy: the national property.

Palabras llave : water rights; conflict; Nazas River; national property; democracy.
