Abstract: In a french ponds region (Dombes, Ain), the understanding of the water appropriation enable to analyse what fish-breeders call a water management crisis, due to new land-owners coming. In between law and customs, agreement and exchange, good and unkind behaviours, the way of sharing water shows that the malfunctioning system is also a pretext to quarrel, a reason lord-land find to defend a position within the local society. Conflicts ensure that groups and individuals remain partitioned off and divided according to a hierarchical order, but also connected. Just as this process refects change resistance, it allows newness integration.
