Convergent Readings of Groundwater Governance? Engaging Exchanges Between Different Research Perspectives

Abstract: In the last 50 years, the study of groundwater governance has given birth to rich and differentiated analytical approaches. This article proposes an exchange between the main heuristic viewpoints, results and theses of three approaches which studied groundwater governance: the study of groundwater governance as collective action initiated by E. Ostrom, the analysis made by T. Shah on informal groundwater economies and the works of A. Prakash, A. Mukherji and T. Birkenholtz drawing on political ecology. The aqu… Show more

“…A water governance framework does not simply look at government or policy to understand the management and regulation of water resources. Instead, focusing on water governance, as relationships and power dynamics between actors and resources, can help to reveal the implications of policies from multiple levels of actors and institutions on local water users [8,[11][12][13].…”

“…L'État, propriétaire de la ressource, régule son allocation à travers des mécanismes réglementaires (autorisation, permis) et écono-miques (redevances) (Petit, 2004). Entre ces deux grandes configurations, l'analyse de la gouvernance des eaux souterraines a donné naissance à plusieurs approches théoriques et méthodologiques, que Faysse et Petit (2012) regroupent en trois catégories principales. La première approche est celle de la gestion collective de la ressource développée par Ostrom (1990Ostrom ( , 1992 qui met en évidence la capacité des collectifs à s'auto-organiser pour construire des règles de gestion et conduire une action collective permettant, sous certaines conditions, une gestion durable des ressources communes.…”

“…However, farmers with electricity connections often receive flat rate or highly subsidized rural electricity, which creates little incentive to conserve water. The political economy of agriculture in India has limited the implementation of these or other state measures to control groundwater (Mukerji and Shah 2005, Mukherji 2006, Faysse and Petit 2012, and those who can purchase diesel pumps can often get around the regulations.…”
