The European Symposium on Computer Aided Process Engineering (ESCAPE) series presents the latest innovations and achievements of leading professionals from the industrial and academic communities. The ESCAPE series serves as a forum for engineers, scientists, researchers, managers and students to present and discuss progress being made in the area of computer aided process engineering (CAPE). European industries large and small are bringing innovations into our lives, whether in the form of new technologies to address environmental problems, new products to make our homes more comfortable and energy efficient or new therapies to improve the health and well being of European citizens. Moreover, the European Industry needs to undertake research and technological initiatives in response to humanity's "Grand Challenges," described in the declaration of Lund, namely, Global Warming, Tightening Supplies of Energy, Water and Food, Ageing Societies, Public Health, Pandemics and Security. Thus, the Technical Theme of ESCAPE 21 will be "Process Systems Approaches for Addressing Grand Challenges in Energy, Environment, Health, Bioprocessing & Nanotechnologies."
La corrupción es un fenómeno global que se manifiesta en distintos ámbitos, y cuya percepción es especialmente grave en América Latina. Por eso se han ideado distintas herramientas para combatirla. Dentro de estas se encuentran los mecanismos de participación ciudadana y el control social, los cuales se han topado con dificultades que motivaron el surgimiento de sinergias como el control fiscal participativo. En la presente obra se analiza si esta modalidad de control es efectiva para la prevención de actos de corrupción, teniendo como fundamentos la bibliografía académica sobre la materia y los aportes del trabajo de campo realizado en el marco de la línea de Investigación en Control Fiscal y Control Fiscal Participativo del Departamento de Derecho Constitucional de la Universidad Externado de Colombia.
