HERNANDEZ MELCHOR, Gloria Isela; SOL SANCHEZ, Ángel; RUIZ ROSADO, Octavio  y  VALDEZ HERNANDEZ, Juan Ignacio. Legislative controversy in mangrove protection: Tabasco’s case, Mexico. Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2016, vol.7, n.spe14, pp.2841-2855. ISSN 2007-0934.

This study was conducted in order to analyze and contrast the legislative dynamic between social welfare and protection on natural resources and its impact on mangroves from Tabasco coast. Seven laws were identified regarding to the use and management of the natural resources, five of these laws are related to guarantee social welfare and the remaining two are focused on the protection and preservation of natural resources. These laws were grouped according to their functionality and application: a) social welfare, promote economic development, land and water use, agriculture, livestock, forestry and their establishment of human settlements and public works; and b) protection of natural resources: aimed to the protection, restoration, and conservation of natural resources. In the legislative analysis was found that there is a priority to social welfare, and to a lesser extent the protection of natural resources. A consequence of this legal helplessness of natural resource is reflected in the reduction of adult mangrove areas and in early stages of development due to oil spill from three oil fields. Despite the problems that mangrove has, during the period from 2005 to 2009 there has been use by management programs in some location at the Ejido Francisco Trujillo Gurría and the locality La Solución Somos Todos.
