Abstract
PACHECO-VEGA, Raúl. Ostrom and water governance in Mexico. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2014, vol.76, n.spe, pp.137-166. ISSN 2594-0651.
The influence of the work of Elinor Ostrom has been decisive. The author drew up a research agenda on the government of the commons, which showed that the use of common access resources could be governed by building robust, equitable rules of access and distribution. This article details Ostrom's contributions to the governance of water, describing how scholars in Mexico have taken up Ostrom's work and applied it to their research. It also proposes some research paths that could be followed in this issue.
Keywords : commons; water governance; research paths; rules; property rights.
