Abstract
La presente memoria tiene por objeto desarrollar, a partir de una caracterización teórica del proceso descentralizador y un abordaje empírico de fuente primaria, los alcances y características de una tendencia nueva del proceso de descentralización del Estado, que se ha dado en identificar como tendencia de “Descentralización Reactiva”. Este proceso, caracterizado por la expansión de políticas públicas locales, en áreas otrora extrañas a este nivel, resultan motorizadas por la reacción de los decisores públicos ante la demanda creciente de vuelta al Estado en el contexto postneoliberal, luego del proceso remercantilizador que caracterizó el fin de siglo en América Latina. En el trabajo se destaca la inusitada continuidad de la descentralización como eje de transformación de las instituciones públicas latinoamericanas, la que puede ser verificada de forma sostenida e ininterrumpida durante los pasados cuarenta años, a pesar de que en ellos no se reconoce la continuidad de modelos de Estado, regímenes políticos u otras políticas públicas...
The present thesis aims at developing, from a theoretical characterization of the decentralization process and an empirical primary-source approach, the scopes and characteristics of a new trend in the promotion of State decentralization processes. This trend is identified as a new vector that will be here referred to as “Reactive Decentralization”. This promotion, which is characterized by the expansion of local public policies into quondam areas that are strange at this level, is driven by the reaction of public decision-makers to a growing demand of civil society for restoring the State involvement in specific areas of public policies within the post-neoliberal context, after the re-mercantilization process that characterized the end of the century in Latin America. This work highlights the unusual continuity of decentralization as the transformation core of state institutions in Latin America, which can be verified as being constant and uninterrupted over the last forty years, even though they show no continuity of models of State, political regimens, or other public policies...
