Abstract

Cet article analyse les discours des agriculteurs en réaction à différents modes de calcul de quotas individuels, pouvant être utilisés pour la mise en place de la loi sur l'eau de 2006. La démarche consiste à articuler deux types d'approches : l'évaluation de l'acceptabilité de ces règles et l'analyse des principes de justice sociale sous-jacents aux argumentaires. Cette problématique est abordée à travers une revue de la littérature et une étude empirique, consistant à soumettre neuf scénarios d'allocation à 76 agriculteurs sélectionnés dans cinq terrains en France. Cet article contribue à la littérature sur la justice sociale dans la gestion de l'eau, en combinant différents cadres d'analyse ; il donne également des outils pour la mise en place d'une gestion quantitative, en proposant une méthode d'évaluation a priori de l'acceptabilité des modes de calculs des quotas. MOTS-CLÉS : acceptabilité, justice sociale, loi sur l'eau, politiques publiques, irrigation Social justice in the construction of the acceptability judgment. Analysis of the farmers' reactions to different groundwater sharing rules This article analyses farmers' answers to different water allocation rules which could be used to implement the 2006 French Water Law. We develop an analytical framework which combines an evaluation of overall acceptability of these rules with an analysis of the underlying principles of social justice. This framework is applied through conducting a survey in five French case studies. Nine allocation rules are presented to 76 irrigating farmers and their preferences analyzed. This article contributes to literature on social justice by articulating different analysis framework, and gives tools to quantitative management implementation, by proposing an assessment method on calculation quotas acceptability.
