Aproximació històrica al debat sobre la gestió de l'aigua a la política espanyola dels segles XIX i XX

Our paper gives a panoramic picture of the debates that have taken place
in Spain about the distribution of water resources. The historic review starts with the
colonial crisis and the emergence of reform projects at the end of the XIXth century and
ends with the breakdown of the Second Republic in the XXth century. Our research
shows the changes of policies undertaken by different governments a long this period
and the kind of actors that got active in the debates about how to fight against the
countrys dryness and drought.
