Comunidades organizadas y el servicio público de agua potable en Colombia: una defensa de la tercera opción económica desde la teoría de recursos de uso común

Abstract: Este artículo investiga, a partir de la teoría y los principios institucionales propuestos por Elinor Ostrom, si las comunidades organizadas en Colombia pueden prestar de manera sostenible el servicio público domiciliario de agua potable y administrarlo como un recurso de uso común (RUC). Para ello se hace una selección de acueductos comunitarios en Colombia y se contrasta con los ocho principios que propone la teoría. Se muestra cómo, en general, se cumple con los principios institucionales, pero también se d… Show more

“…There is a tension between the state force that seeks to institutionalize these ways that escape compliance with regulation and the market logic of giving water a price, and which can be more effective in achieving cooperative solutions (community water self-management). Institutionality has made positive progress in universal access to the resource by ensuring a vital minimum and for the most vulnerable not to be cut off when they do not pay; actions that have been promoted by citizen mobilizations (Water Referendum) (Moncada et al, 2013). However, increasingly scarce water quality and quantity increase illegal and violent appropriations of the resource that violate the constitutional right to water use by anyone who requires it (Guerrero et al, 2016).…”

“…Los intereses por el acceso, uso y distribución del agua han generado a lo largo del tiempo, conflictos permanentes los cuales se retrataron a través de dos momentos, los cuales deben entenderse bajo el telón de fondo de las políticas estatales en relación con el agua, su correspondencia con el contexto global y su impacto a nivel local. El primer momento analizado, anterior a la mitad del siglo XX, el cual cabe en lo que en otros trabajos se ha denominado como período de municipalización (López, 2016;Moncada et al, 2013;Swyngedouw, 2005), en el cual la prestación del servicio de agua es vista como un asunto de utilidad pública que debe ser provisto por el Estado, implicó para el valle de Atriz características singulares, como que el naciente proyecto de acueducto, se proyectará solo para algunos sectores de la ciudad o que los pobladores de la parte alta, fueran perturbados permanentemente para hacer uso del agua que nacía en sus territorios.…”

“…The water footprint (WF) is a sustainability indicator that measures total volume of freshwater consumed by human activities by a specific unit under study, which can be an individual, a crop, a geographically defined area, or a country needed to dilute the most impacting polluting agent in the water used during the production process [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

“…In this sense, the sustainability of water supply systems is a key factor when evaluating its implementation and consequent monitoring. This evaluation is performed by evaluating changes in the quality of service provided over time [12]. When service is considered sustainable, the quality remains constant and even improves.…”
