Del empresario individual al empresario social: las sociedades como herramienta que facilita la transición intergeneracional en al empresa familiar

La constitución de una sociedad de capital puede constituir un exelente instrumento para facilitar la transición intergeneracional en aquellas empresas en la que su titular es una persona fisica y sus descendientes han tomado la decisión de entrada a tiempo completo en la organización empresarial. En este sentido, el tránsito de la condición de empresario individual a empresario social no solo permite la conservación de la empresa más allá de la vida de su titular actual, simplificando el proceso hereditario, sino que además permite disfrutar de las ventajas de la limitación de la responsabilidad por deudas y de la separación del patrimonio civil de los socios del patrimonio necesario para el ejercicio de la empresa, reduciendo así los riesgos económicos patrimoniales. Adicionalmente, la relativa flexibilidad del régimen jurídico de las sociedades de capital permite que los socios tengan la posibilidad de adecuarlo a sus necesidades específicas.

Las relaciones civiles-militares en sociedades en transformación: América Latina

La transformación de los regímenes latinoamericanos en democracias liberales, a partir de la década de los ochenta, ha sido un proceso que ha ocupado una buena parte de los esfuerzos de los estudios sobre América Latina. Existe no obstante, la duda de si las Fuerzas Armadas, que gobernaron ilegítimamente muchos de esos países, han transitado satisfactoriamente hasta la democracia. Una condición crucial para el éxito de las transiciones a la democracia es la transformación del papel de los militares. El análisis de estos cambios y la asunción de nuevos roles se analizaron el año 2010 en el seminario: Las relaciones civiles-militares en sociedades en transformación: América Latina y Europa. El resultado de lo allí discutido ve la luz en este número 36 de Documentos CIDOB. América Latina y en la obra Debating Civil Military Relations in Latin America.

Internalização de farmoquímicos e medicamentos para doenças tropicais negligenciadas: proposta de interação entre Governo - Universidade - Empresa

History shows that public health actions to combat epidemics are most effective when there is constant synergy of both government and society, exemplified by prevention actions in the fight against dengue fever, H1N1 influenza etc. Private-public-partnerships (PPP) can also provide more dynamic and consistent results in production through interaction among Government, University and Enterprise actors. This article puts forward proposals to tackle the problem of neglected tropical diseases via the formation of a Management Council using Etzkowitz's Triple Helix concept to attenuate this public health issue in Brazil.

Religião e Conflitos Políticos na Venezuela: católicos e evangélicos frente ao governo de Hugo Chávez

Este artigo se debruça sobre a complexa relação do governo Chávez com a Igreja católica e com o movimento evangélico. O governo Chávez tem repetidamente se confrontado com a hierarquia da Igreja católica na medida em que tem buscado desestabilizar as instituições existentes, incluindo a Igreja. Em contraste, ele atraído o movimento evangélico no processo de estabelecer alianças com novos atores sociais e políticos. No entanto as reações de padres católicos e pastores evangélicos têm variado. Padres, que não têm tido conexão com a hierarquia e trabalham com os membros dos setores populares, tendem a apoiar o governo Chávez. De forma similar, os pastores neopentecostais, que aderem a "Teologia do Domínio," e que não têm uma conexão com o principal grupo evangélico que lidera movimento evangélico, apoiam Chávez.

O social no governo Lula: a construção de um novo populismo em tempos de aplicação de uma agenda neoliberal

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the main characteristics of new Lula's government support. The paper's hypothesis concentrates in the idea of starting a different political approach, "a new populism". The paper argues that Lula's government to keep in power, beyond of going on with the neoliberal project - unfinished in the last years of FHC government -, needs to build up a solid and trustful political support, which is being done by implementing income transfer programs directed to poor people and the ones with less organization experience. This paper also calls the attention to Lula's government nature, in order to clarify the difficulties which should be dealt and the tasks to be developed in building up a political party that defends workers emancipation and Brazilians exploited.

Dívida pública, poupança em conta corrente do governo e superávit primário: uma análise de sustentabilidade

On this paper, we propose a change in the primary surplus' target by the government current account saving. That concept excludes public investment from primary surplus. However, of that change has raised a question about if government current account saving represents a sustainable fiscal policy. Thus, this paper analyses if the change in the primary surplus' target by the government current account saving implies a meaning modification on the debt-to-GDP ratio path. The empirical analysis, which is based on Brazilian monthly data for the period 1999-2005, suggests that the change in fiscal target does not mean a lack of sustain-ability.

As convenções de desenvolvimento no governo Lula: um ensaio de economia política

Development conventions in Lula's mandates: an essay on political economy. This article analyses the different development proposals put forward during the two Lula Presidential mandates. It is argued that such proposals are structured as "development conventions", which involve different priorities and different solutions to the problem of structural transformation. Their analytical frame is also different as are the interest groups which uphold them. Therefore their epistemology must be placed in the political economy context. It is argued that, notwithstanding the weight gained by a "developmental" convention over the second mandate, a "stability" convention is still hegemonic and commands macroeconomic policies.

Da economia política à política econômica: o novo-desenvolvimentismo e o governo Lula

From political economy to economic policy: The neo-developmentalism and the Lula administration. This article critically reviews the design of neo-developmentalist economic policies in Brazil, in the first half of the last decade, and their relationship with the economic policies of the Lula administration after 2006. Paradoxically, the neo-developmentalist policies were implemented jointly with the main (neoliberal) macroeconomic policies which had been introduced earlier. The article reviews the relevant literature, and examines the contradictory nature of this 'inflection' of economic policy. So far, this combination of policies has achieved an unquestionable - though provisional - success, despite the persistence of the structural macroeconomic problems due to the continuity of the neoliberal policies.
