Abstract
This paper provides a multidimensional study based on data and text mining of prosecuted disputes on water rights in Chile, and an analysis of the state’s capacity,
particularly of the institutions related to water regulation. This study shows not only a
substantial increase of legal disputes regarding water rights over the years (1981-
2014), but also clear patterns in the geographic location of these conflicts, as well as
in the types of legal actions, arguments and strategies used in their pursuit. Through a
topic analysis, we find a growing diversification over time of the subjects contained in
the legal claims, suggesting an increase in structure and complexity.
