Abstract

The public services have been the objective of research in the literature on governance since it was proposed to conceptualize them as common goods and thus be able to anticipate scenarios of collaboration and solidarity, but in the case of water supply and the payment of tariffs the panorama is complex since in the more developed cities the policies of tariff increase have been favorable while in the suburbs and rural areas it has been a catastrophe. In the first study, the objective of this paper is to discuss such issues, investigating the contributions of literature and its proximity to the meanings of the actors. A non-experimental, cross-sectional and exploratory study was carried out with a non-probabilistic selection of informants from different sectors. An integral meaning that would contribute to governance was found, but the type of study, sampling and analysis can only be applicable to the interviewees, suggesting the inclusion of other more complex categories such as hyperopia and helplessness. In a second study, the objective was to observe the impact of the agenda, framing, intensity and participatory effect of the water problem on the socio-digital network (X ex Twitter). An explanatory, transversal and correlational work was carried out with a sample of 9950 users selected considering their publications on some of the water problems: scarcity, shortages, unhealthiness and high cost. The results confirm the impact of the media effect around water problems on the opinions and attitudes of users. In relation to the state of the art, the results of both studies confirm water problems as central axes of the public, research and socio-digital agenda.
