Cali, Expanded City-Region: A Metropolitan Territory
The analytical approaches to studying the region are diverse and evolve as research products appear, as a result of modern systems for collecting, processing and integrating information from the various disciplines. Studies based on political and administrative boundaries, very common in the nineteenth century, move towards the positivist approaches of the twentieth century based on the distribution and organization of demographic and economic factors. Afterwards, the population and its social conditions in terms of infrastructure, economic level and social status are the main object of studies on the regions. The conceptualization of these approaches to study the region enters into crisis w...

Planeación y desarrollo
La planeación y el desarrollo se encuentran íntimamente ligadas porque para alcanzar cualquier tipo de desarrollo es necesario que exista un plan de desarrollo, formal o no formal; es decir, una serie de pasos que se deben adelantar y cumplir en forma efectiva, de tal manera que se puedan hacer las comparaciones y verificar si los objetivos se están logrando. Entre más informal sea el plan, más tortuoso será el camino y mayores los recursos que se desperdician.
Rethinking Party Systems in the Third Wave of Democratization
Based on an in-depth examination of the Brazillian case, this book argues that we need to rethink important theoretical issues and empirical realities of party systems in the third wave of democratization.
Runaway State-Building
Here, Conor O'Dwyer introduces the phenomenon of runaway state-building as a consequence of patronage politics in underdeveloped, noncompetitive party systems. Analyzing the cases of three newly democratized nations in Eastern Europe—Poland, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia—O’Dwyer argues that competition among political parties constrains patronage-led state expansion. O’Dwyer uses democratization as a starting point, examining its effects on other aspects of political development. Focusing on the link between electoral competition and state-building, he is able to draw parallels between the problems faced by these three nations and broader historical and contemporary problems of patronage politics—such as urban machines in nineteenth-century America and the Philippines after Marcos. This timely study provides political scientists and political reformers with insights into points in the democratization process where appropriate intervention can minimize runaway state-building and cultivate efficient bureaucracy within a robust and competitive democratic system.
