本文考察了2000年代中期尼加拉瓜农村水务委员会政治参与的新形式。特别是，它探讨了多部门联盟在促进水委员会(1)实际流动性和政治可见度，(2)政治和法律能力建设以及(3)获得国家代表渠道方面的作用。本案例对社会资本理论做出了贡献，揭示了参与水治理的转变，从基于地方的水管理集体行动到参与公共政策进程。在实践方面，本文为通过更具包容性的政策进程改善水资源治理提供了经验教训。
This paper examines new forms of political participation on the part of rural water committees in Nicaragua in the mid-2000s. In particular, it explores the role of multisectoral alliances in facilitating water committees' (1) physical mobility and political visibility, (2) political and legal capacity-building, and (3) access to state channels of representation. Contributing to theories of social capital, this case reveals a transformation of participation in water governance from locally grounded collective action for water management to engagement in public policy processes. In practical terms, the paper casts lessons for improved water governance via more inclusive policy processes.
