OTAZO, Tamara  and  VIGIL, José Ignacio. Políticas sociales de provisión de agua potable en la ciudad de Santa Fe: El retiro del Estado y las deudas de la gobernanza. Doc. aportes adm. pública gest. estatal [online]. 2015, n.25, pp.131-151. ISSN 1851-3727.

This work describes and analyzes the weaknesses in the deployment of basic social programs in the city of Santa Fe (potable water supply and sewage system program) under the governance dynamics. It departures by recognizing that there has been a sort of conceptual turn tending to related governance dynamics with social policies to replace the usually «passive» character of the beneficiary of the programs by introducing socio-productive initiatives which tend to empower and provide of more active participation and involvement of the beneficiary into the deployment of the social policy/ program. However, the case analyzed shows an exaggerated recruitment of the state and of its responsibilities in such a sensitive issue (water supply) which demand those programs based on governance dynamics to be revised.

Keywords : Governance; State; Santa Fe; Potable water; Social policies.
