Resumen: | Historic irrigation canals are valuable socioecological systems capable of delivering several ecological and cultural services. However, ecological modernisation initiatives are leaving decommissioned ditches in limbo. A case study strategy is used to analyse the history of a decommissioned 700-year-old canal network in northeastern Spain and the unexpected intervention of several stakeholders who have attempted to redefine the former canals through new uses. The study relies on the analysis of documents and eight semistructured interviews with key stakeholders. We argue that this case reflects a policy failure in the application of multifunctionality, integrative planning and social participation principles presumably ingrained in European policies. The replacement of such principles with monosectoral action under a productivity paradigm, function segregation and a neoliberal management approach should be balanced with greater institutional commitment, increased coordination between stakeholders and rigorous planning controls if ecological and cultural functions and services are to be preserved. |
