Sumario:[EN] Conflicts in the Valencian irrigation channels have been observed through different perspectives. Jaubert de Passá (1844) or Giner Boira (1988) hide them. Whereas Arthur Maass (2010: 72-82) or Elinor Ostrom (2011: 135-155) minimized them. This paper defends, following the works of Calatayud & Garrido (2012: 95), that Valencian hydraulic institutions had to manage a very difficult natural resource. These institutions deserve their present prestige, but historically went through violent conflicts and stages of severe oligarchic control. The uncertainly and conflicts stimulated communitarian cooperation, boosting institutional changes (participative formulae and regulations changes) and increasing the capacity to control the enormous conflictive potential3 . The collective institutions created suitable mechanism to control or limit antagonism and to build levels of consensus water users.
