“…What are the implications of the institutional arrangements on the land rights of small-scale farmers? In this paper, institutional arrangements refer to the formal government organizational structures and informal norms put in place at all levels of government (federal, provincial, and local) for arranging and undertaking its policy work [4]. The paper follows two lines of arguments: First, we demonstrate that decentralization has the tendency to increase competition among local actors in land administration because power and responsibility are transferred downwardly to heterogenous actors with diverse interests.…”

“…The justification of subsidiarity is rooted in moral arguments (liberty and dignity) established by the Catholic Church and subsequently in its perceived political and economic advantages for enhancing representation and efficiency (Marshall 2008;Stoa 2014). The principle has also been justified for the perceived practical value of taking complex decisions based on expertise on the ground (Marshall 2015).…”

“…Una prueba evidente de esta generalización del problema es el cambio de escala en la gestión de los recursos hídricos, que está migrando del ámbito local al supranacional (Stoa, 2014), especialmente debido a los efectos del cambio climático (WMO-UNEP, 2008) que se añaden a las obligaciones habituales en la gestión de cuencas hidrográficas. Varios autores (Cosgrove & Cosgrove, 2012;Kundzewicz et al, 2018;WWAP, 2009) destacan como principales impactos los impactos del cambio climático en los recursos hídricos (i) la reducción del suministro de agua; (ii) el aumento en la frecuencia y magnitud de los eventos extremos como las inundaciones y sequías; (iii) daños a las áreas costeras por el aumento del nivel del mar y la salinización relacionada de los acuíferos costeros; (iv) un incremento en las necesidades de agua de riego; (v) la disminución en la calidad de todas las fuentes de agua dulce; y (vi) el aumento de los requisitos funcionales y operativos para las infraestructuras hídricas existentes, asociados también a un incremento en la demanda energética.…”
