| dc.description.abstract | Environmental problems are observed throughout Brazil, and beyond technical and managerial questions, water-related issues are not simply a result of flaws in the implementation of legislation or technical inadequacy, but represent the expression of disputes between political and economic forces. Such problems are actually the motto for the explosion of conflicts whose central issue has to do with the uneven use of available resources, the idea of environmental conflict appearing associated therefore to the question of social rights and the unequal appropriation of territory and its resources. (Costa, 2010) In the cities of the modern world, where tendentiously natural resources such as water, are regulated, appropriate and distributed following the market relations, there is the transformation of goods of public use in an exchange value. In this respect, water allocation, use and conservation are core elements of 'urban problems', which became plainly globalized from the 70s, because this service that was considered a right in the state of Social Welfare has been transformed into merchandise to be acquired on the open market (Lefebvre, 1970). | |
