A Dissipative, Self-organizing and Open Water System: The Case of Tlaxcala
Abstract The complex task of studying the processes of extraction, supply, distribution, use, pollution and water sanitation in a central and the smallest state in Mexico , called Tlaxcala, included an interdisciplinary approach which analysed the natural, social and political factors in a specific time and space. An appropriate methodological approach for analysing a dynamic totality was offered by an open , dissipative and self-regulating system analysis (see Chap. 15 ). This method addressed links among social relations of production , where unequal access to natural resources had generated multiple conflicts and effects on welfare, health and the quality of life among disadvantaged social groups . This study focused on the material interactions of natural resources with processes of over-extraction of groundwater , pollution and environmental deterioration with negative impacts on life quality , sustainable access to resources and the future production in the region.
