La reafirmación de los recursos administrativos como requisito de procedibilidad en Ley 1437 de 2011: una posición privilegiada de la administración pública en Colombia frente a los particulares

La problemática que aborda este trabajo comprende el análisis de las implicaciones y del significado de la reafirmación del trámite de los recursos administrativos como un requisito de procedibilidad que el particular debe agotar para poder acudir a la jurisdicción administrativa cuando pretende dirimir una controversia originada en una decisión adoptada por una autoridad pública. Nos preguntamos, si con ello, se cumplió todo aquello que inspiró a los precursores de la expedición del nuevo código de procedimiento administrativo y de lo contencioso administrativo. La investigación se desarrolló a partir de un plan de trabajo divido en dos partes. En la primera, se analizó la doble connotación que caracteriza a los recursos administrativos, así como la evolución, la efectividad y la importancia de aquellos de cara a los privilegios de la administración pública. También se abordaron las modificaciones que el legislador ha efectuado a esta herramienta de autocontrol de las decisiones administrativas y la jurisprudencia expedida por el Consejo de Estado y la Corte Constitucional en esta materia. En la segunda parte, con el fin de establecer si la reafirmación del agotamiento del recurso de apelación como requisito de procedibilidad para acudir a la jurisdicción administrativa, traduce los propósitos del legislador al expedir el nuevo código administrativo y de lo contencioso administrativo, se plasmaron aspectos que debieron considerarse en esta reforma, en el marco de las tendencias de un Estado Social de Derecho y de la problemática de la congestión judicial que intenta afrontar el legislador. En ese marco, se explicaron los aspectos que permitieron constatar que los propósitos del legislador se desdibujaron al mantener la obligatoriedad de agotar los recursos administrativos para que el particular pueda someter una controversia a la jurisdicción administrativa.

Administrative authorization for the demolition of urban rental units pursuant to the law of 1964: a spanish example of problematic over-activity in the application of transitional laws

Transitional provisions are defined as the set of regulations that rule juridical relationships on the occasion of a legislative change. Out of this context of law succession, their indiscriminate application can lead to serious inconsistencies. The analysis of a Spanish private law example is offered to illustrate this fact. It concerns the administrative authorization for the demolition of rented buildings in the cities. A regulation repealed more than fifteen years ago and however widespread utilised on ancient constructions that, after recent urban development, have acquired great economic value; something that in the end explains the current importance of such provisions. What is happening in Spain: denaturalization of the original  figure due to a mixture of formalist interpretations and speculative market interests, is presented here to call the attention on the necessary limitation of transitional provisions’ effects.

General induction at companies - between an administrative process and a sociological phenomenon

From the example of the process of general induction into the organization and using certain sociological resources, shows paradox are specialists in human management: is to carefor the motivation and the welfare of workers to achieve its high performance, their fidelity and his tenure at the company; However, current mutations of the social architecture in general and of work in particular –as structure of organized action– force thinking that organizational loyalty tends to be increasingly unlikely and that, conversely, the current personnel administration processes appear made inappropriate notions and appear to contribute directly to the adversities of human beings in organizational settings.
