Resumen:
The paper focuses on emergency regulations in drought periods. My analysis will focus on two main legal corpus of the study cases: the water code drought legal framework and the Emergency Regulations during droughts periods. Consequently, I first discuss the concepts of drought and scarcity, describing the failure and ineffectiveness of classic water law legal mechanisms to deal with them nowadays. Secondly, I critically analyze both, the legal framework and the scope of Emergency Regulations in drought periods. Finally, I observe the trend of emergency regulations becoming permanent while considering the risk to creating a state of exception, which leads me to draw some conclusions.
