| Resumo: | [EN] Updating historical irrigation systems: the “emotive flow” as a concept to support the link between the past and the future. A case study in the Lecrin Valley (Granada, Andalucia, south of Spain). The functions of irrigation in the Mediterranean basin are far beyond agriculture. They are artificial channels driving tame water, gardening some of our most lovely landscapes. Unfortunately they are in some way old-fashioned systems, difficult to update to modern needs, mostly because they are linked to almost vanished social structures Meanwhile, other actors interested in the ecological, cultural and landscape functions of these irrigation systems have appeared, identifying new requirements to take into account when defining the future of these network of channels. These new approaches collide oftenly with the more pragmatic and utilitarian vision from the peasants, who demand technical solutions to modernise their irrigation systems in order to facilitate the work of a decreasing number of water users. When thinking on the future of historic irrigation system, the need of shared solutions between peasants and other actors should be recognised. To support this approach, the concept of “emotive flow” is suggested to be included as criteria in the design of modernisation projects of irrigation systems with historical, cultural and enviromental values, taking the example of the Lecrin Valley (Granada, south of Spain) as a case of study. |
