Crisis económica y política de la Regeneración a finales del siglo XIX

Esta investigación tiene como propósito analizar las medidas políticas de los gobiernos de la Regeneración (dos últimas décadas del siglo XIX) para erradicar las ideas liberales en la política colombiana. El discurso regenerador era muy potente y claro en el campo político, pero tenía serias limitaciones en lo económico y lo social. En la primera parte, se analizan las raíces personales y políticas de la lucha, durante décadas, de Miguel Antonio Caro contra las ideas liberales. En la segunda, las condiciones políticas de los últimos veinte años del siglo XIX, en donde sobresale la intolerancia de los gobiernos de turno hacia la oposición, y las medidas extremas que tomaron para combatirla. En tercer lugar, se expone un balance del manejo de las finanzas públicas durante la Regeneración. y finalmente, en cuarto lugar, se analiza el manejo del Banco Nacional por parte los gobiernos de la Regeneración.

Fiscal Decentralization and Local Finance in Developing Countries

This book draws on experiences in developing countries to bridge the gap between the conventional textbook treatment of fiscal decentralization and the actual practice of subnational government finance. The extensive literature about the theory and practice is surveyed and longstanding problems and new questions are addressed. It focuses on the key choices that must be made in decentralizing, on how economic and political factors shape the choices that countries make, and on how, by paying more attention to the need for a more comprehensive approach and the critical connections between different components of decentralization reform, everyone involved might get more for their money.

Distributive Justice in Transitions

  • Categories: Law

The chapters of this book explore, from different disciplinary perspectives, the relationship between transitional justice, distributive justice, and economic efficiency in the settlement of internal armed conflicts. They specifically discuss the role of land reform as an instrument of these goals, and examine how the balance between different perspectives has been attempted (or not) in selected cases of internal armed conflicts, and how it should be attempted in principle. Although most chapters closely examine the Colombian case, some provide a comparative perspective that includes countries in Latin America, Africa, and Eastern Europe, while others examine some of the more general, theoretical issues involved.

Comparative Law and Regulation

  • Categories: Law

Governance by regulation – rules propounded and enforced by bureaucracies – is taking a growing share of the sum total of governance. Once thought to be an American phenomenon, it is now a central form of state action in every part of the world, including Europe, Latin America, and Asia, and it is at the core of much international lawmaking. In Comparative Law and Regulation, original contributions by leading scholars in the field focus both on the legal dimension of regulation and on how this dimension operates in those places that have turned to regulation to meet their obligations.
