"Water rights" are the backbone of watermanagement principles and strategies in peasant and indigenous systems. These rights define their access to water and to the decision making arena, and specify their obligations regarding system maintenance and organisational roles and responsabilities. Fundamentally a water right is a sopcial relationship and an expression of power. Water management practices in the Andes show that unequal power and inequalities in the prevailing normative systems prevent successful collective co-operation. At the same time they show that the struggle for access to water, under collective control, may result in greater equity in its distribution and strengthen the position of less powerful stakeholders.
The authors of this book use these insights to integrate and elaborate analytical concepts that make it possible to better understand the relationship among "water rights", "collective action" and "empowerment"- to understand the local contents of water rights, how they are acquired, the dynamics of their production and reproduction, and the strategic uses of water rights in social action.
