State Theory and Public Administration in Latin America
Research and teaching about the state in Latin America have been under the strong influence of constitutional law and political philosophy since the nineteenth century. To this day, a formal constitutional understanding of the state dominates not only professional training and scholarly research in the fields of government and public administration but also, perhaps more significantly, public controversies about the design of state institutions. …
Islands of power. Democratic legitimacy, autonomous organisms, and their conflict in Mexico
In connection with the democratic transition in Mexico, several autonomous organisms were created by constitutional amendment, in significant public policy areas. However, these same organisms came under increasing criticism over the past years, as technocratic and illegitimate, in the country’s national media. Institutional confrontation followed. We discuss this conflict employing our own theoretical proposal on sources of bureaucratic legitima…
State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain
Neoliberalism is often studied as a political ideology, a government program, and even as a pattern of cultural identities. However, less attention is paid to the specific institutional resources employed by neoliberal administrations, which have resulted in the configuration of a neoliberal state model. This accessible volume compiles original essays on the neoliberal era in Latin America and Spain, exploring subjects such as neoliberal public p…
Cambio institucional y fiscalidad
This book offers original and important contributions to a key scholarly and political debate. Begun several decades ago, the debate turns around the Bourbon reforms in the New World during the eighteenth century, their impact on the Spanish empire, and their far-reaching consequences for national states created after independence in the region. The Bourbon reforms gained scholarly prominence among legal historians in the late 1950s, and the subj…
Integrating participatory institutions into the traditional representative and bureaucratic model of public governance
Does more citizen participation necessarily improve the democratic quality and/or the effectiveness of government? What forms of participation have the potential to accomplish these goals? And, more important, how can these participatory mechanisms be integrated into traditional representative and bureaucratic governance practices, in order to grasp this potential? We discuss these questions in the article, building on theories and empirical evid…
Latin American Bureaucracy and the State Building Process (1780-1860)
The essays collected in this book are very precise and focused empirical studies on the early development of public bureaucracies in Latin American countries. In their own introductory essays, which comprise the first three chapters, the editors of the book elaborate upon that empirical research, presenting ambitious and relevant theoretical proposals related to social science discussions about state building.This is a necessary and very importan…
State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain
The growth of institutional capacity in the developing world has become a central theme in twenty-first-century social science. Many studies have shown that public institutions are an important determinant of long-run rates of economic growth. This book argues that to understand the difficulties and pitfalls of state building in the contemporary world, it is necessary to analyze previous efforts to create institutional capacity in conflictive con…

State and Nation Making in Latin America and Spain
Friends in High Places
Chile presents a paradox for legislative studies. In most comparative research on the political power of presidents and assemblies in Latin America, the Chilean presidency is considered one of the most powerful in the region. The country's congress is seen, accordingly, as weak and lacking influence over public policy. Such evaluations, however, tend to be based on constitutional and legal faculties (that is, formal powers), and they overlook the…
Una idea muy precaria
La reforma del servicio civil de 1991/92 creó en Argentina una burocracia profesional (en el clásico sentido "weberiano") a escala relativamente masiva para países de América Latina. En la presente nota se exponen resultados de una investigación empírica que conciernen a la situación del servicio público federal argentino, diez años después de la reforma. Basada en entrevistas con informantes claves, así como también en estadísticas y documentos …
