Abstract
El presente Trabajo Final de Máster busca comprender cómo la institucionalización y mejora de los mecanismos de rendición de cuentas contribuyen al fortalecimiento del sistema democrático, en los gobiernos de España y de Chile.
Esta investigación parte con un análisis al contexto jurídico, político y social de ambos países, lo que permitirá contextualizar la relevancia del objeto de estudio. Asimismo, se examina la arquitectura y configuración de los mecanismos de rendición de cuentas existentes profundizando en los ejercicios de rendición de cuentas de los compromisos gubernamentales, para finalmente, poder razonar sobre la influencia de estos mecanismos en el fortalecimiento de la democracia.
El análisis efectuado permite entender, desde una óptica teórica, la importancia que poseen los mecanismos de rendición de cuentas dentro del andamiaje democrático de los países y como su desarrollo contribuye a mejorar la calidad del sistema político. Desde una óptica práctica, la investigación permite conocer la arquitectura y funcionamiento del sistema de rendición de cuentas, así como, observar tanto las fortalezas como las carencias institucionales existentes.
A su vez, el estudio busca realzar la importancia de la responsabilidad política que tienen los gobiernos y los representantes frente a la ciudadanía, para lo cual, los valores y principios de participación, transparencia y rendición de cuentas, son claves de cara a una nueva forma de entender la democracia.
Por último, cabe señalar que el objeto de estudio forma parte de lo que la academia denomina la cultura de evaluación y rendición de cuentas que deben ir adquiriendo los países que aspiren a evolucionar en su solidez y consolidación democrática.
This Final Master's Project seeks to understand how the institutionalization and improvement of accountability mechanisms contribute to the strengthening of the democratic system, in the governments of Spain and Chile. This research starts with an analysis of the legal, political and social context of both countries, which will allow contextualizing the relevance of the object of study. Likewise, the architecture and configuration of the existing accountability mechanisms is examined, delving into the accountability exercises of government commitments, in order to finally be able to reason about the influence of these mechanisms in strengthening democracy. The analysis carried out allows us to understand, from a theoretical perspective, the importance of accountability mechanisms within the democratic framework of countries and how their development contributes to improving the quality of the political system. From a practical point of view, the research allows to know the architecture and operation of the accountability system, as well as to observe both the strengths and the existing institutional deficiencies. In turn, the study seeks to highlight the importance of the political responsibility that governments and representatives have towards the citizenry, for which the values and principles of participation, transparency and accountability are key to a new way of understanding democracy. Finally, it should be noted that the object of study is part of what the academy calls the culture of evaluation and accountability that countries that aspire to evolve in their solidity and democratic consolidation must acquire.
