Indeed, the sound performance of the construction sector, strong investment in public works, restored consumer confidence and a recovery in the hydrocarbons industry enabled Colombia’s economy to regain dynamism and end 2013 with growth of 4.7%. Attracting a record $16.36bn in foreign direct investment in 2013, an 8.2% rise on the previous year, the Andean economy assured its spot among the region’s top investment targets. As in previous years, hydrocarbons attracted the lion’s share of FDI to the country, accounting for 81.6% of the total. While GDP grew by just 2.9% in the first quarter of 2014, the central bank forecasts growth of 4.3% for the year. With the possibility of a peace deal with the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), the next few years could see economic performance enhanced by improved agricultural and energy outputs, as well as increased FDI inflows.
El debate sobre la reforma a la Ley 30 de 1992 se inició hace más de dos años y el proyecto gubernamental no ha logrado un consenso que permita darle un trámite exitoso en el Congreso. La concentración del debate en la financiación de la universidad pública y en la existencia o no de instituciones de educación superior con ánimo de lucro ha dejado en la penumbra de la discusión algunos temas centrales: la calidad de la estructura del sistema, los fundamentos y alcances de la intervención del Estado, los desafíos para el futuro en materia de financiamiento, etc. La Universidad de los Andes ofrece este libro para enriquecer el debate y poner en primer plano varios de estos puntos centrales.
