Le Mexique et l'eau de la disponibilité naturelle aux différents types de rareté

In relation to water resources, Mexico could be considered as a country divided into two territories. The National Water Commission indicates that the north and centre of the country have restricted water availability while in the southern zone there is a natural abundance for fewer people. Starting from the study of quantitative water indexes and the recognition of the need for a more complex analysis which goes beyond such indicators, this paper shows the contrasts in water resources in Mexico. Following Turton and Ohlsson's model (1999), it tries to analyze the responses given to these different conditions.
