água , sistemas de saneamento , higiene , história da tecnologia , história da ciênciaResumo
Este artigo concentra-se na análise crítica do sistema de saneamento convencional atual, examinando seu processo histórico de consolidação e o papel da água no processo. Examina-se especificamente como as funções atribuídas à água como agente higiênico e meios físicos de transporte dos rejeitos moldaram as características do sistema até a atualidade. Com base nas características do contexto sociotécnico em que esse sistema se estabeleceu, argumenta-se que ele se mostra inadequado no cenário contemporâneo. Essa inadequação torna o sistema insustentável, especialmente em termos de uso de recursos, sobretudo de água.
