Abstract
BRISENO, Hugo and SANCHEZ, Antonio. Decentralization, consolidation, and crisis of urban water management in Mexico. Tecnol. cienc. agua [online]. 2018, vol.9, n.4, pp.25-47. Epub Nov 24, 2020. ISSN 2007-2422. https://doi.org/10.24850/j-tyca-2018-04-02.
In Mexico, a process of decentralization of potable water services has been developed. It was considered to be consolidated with the transfer of responsibility from the federal and state spheres to the municipal level. The objective of this article is to describe how this transition was carried out until its consolidation and subsequent crisis. This is considered in light of the main management indicators of water utilities.
