MINAVERRY, Clara María  y  FERRO, Mariano. Legal-institutional fragmentation as an obstacle for the environmental paradigm application. Reflexiones [online]. 2016, vol.95, n.1, pp.115-129. ISSN 1659-2859.

Since environmental topic was included in the international agenda, expectations were created about the role of Law as a discipline and tool to mitigate, prevent and compensate anthropogenic ecosystem damages. In this paper there will be an approach to an issue which was little addressed in social, legal and environmental sciences: legal-institutional fragmentation as an obstacle to achieve sustainable development goals, especially in water management. It was implemented as a documental-bibliographical, descriptive and diachronic design. The methodology used is qualitative, mainly legal hermeneutics. Preliminary, we concluded that regulatory chaos which was applied to the Matanza-Riachuelo basin, allowed failed institutional settlements creating an adverse scenery for the environmental paradigm application in different dimensions: to favour corrupted actions, to difficult information access and authorities petitions right, because they both represent an obstacle to achieve citizen´s participation.

Palabras clave : Matanza-Riachuelo Basin; Water fragmented management; Citizen´s participation; Regulatory overlap; Argentina.
