Análisis comparativo entre la Ley 60 de 1993 y la Ley 715 de 2001, en relación con la transferencia de recursos a los departamentos, distritos y municipios

Las transferencias constituyen el mayor porcentaje de ingresos ordinarios de las entidades territoriales, es pertinente efectuar un análisis comparativo, para determinar hasta qué punto el nuevo esquema puede afectar el proceso de descentralización

Análisis de la distribución de los recursos para la educación preescolar, básica y media conforme la ley 715 de 2001

Ante lo anterior, este trabajo de investigación está dirigido a plantear los antecedentes en materia de distribución de recursos para la educación a las entidades territoriales, antes y después de expedirse la Ley 715 de 2001, centrado fundamentalmente en la “financiación” de la educación pública en los niveles de preescolar, básica y media. Para ello, compara lo que se venía dando con el Situado Fiscal (SF), los recursos de la Participación en los Ingresos Corrientes de la Nación (PICN), los recursos del Fondo Educativo de Compensación (FEC), y los propios que invertían los departamentos y municipios, conforme la Ley 60 de 1993 y lo que se presenta actualmente, con la Ley 715 de 2001; y a pesar que resulta prematuro evaluar los avances y limitaciones de ésta última Ley, trata de avizorar algunos de sus elementos positivos y negativos, a la luz de lo que se viene presentando en el Departamento de Boyacá, en cuanto muchos de sus aspectos característicos se presentan en todo el país.

Análisis de las Estrategias de Educación para la Ciudadanía. Bogotá 1995-2011

El interés de este estudio de caso es analizar la contribución de la Política Pública de Educación para la Ciudadanía (PPEC) en Bogotá, desde 1995 al 2011. En primer lugar, se estudiará la forma en la que el Estado colombiano entiende la formación del ciudadano y lo que se espera de éste para la construcción de la sociedad. Luego, se identificará la participación y la coordinación de las entidades públicas del orden Distrital con los actores privados, durante el desarrollo de esta PPEC. Finalmente, se caracterizará la implementación de la Política Pública en la construcción de la formación del ciudadano ideado desde el Gobierno Nacional. Esta investigación se desarrolló a partir del primer gobierno del ex alcalde Antanas Mockus, puesto que gracias a él se comenzó a hablar y tomar acciones con respecto a esta PPEC.

Public and Private Regulation: Mapping the Labyrinth. CEPS Working Document No. 370, October 2012

Private governance is currently being evoked as a viable solution to many public policy goals. However, in some circumstances it has shown to produce more harm than good, and even disastrous consequences as in the case of the financial crisis that is raging in most advanced economies. Although the current track record of private regulatory schemes is mixed, policy guidance documents around the world still require that policy-makers give priority to self- and co-regulation, with little or no additional guidance being given to policymakers to devise when, and under what circumstances, these solutions can prove viable from a public policy perspective. With an array of examples from several policy fields, this paper approaches regulation as a public-private collaborative form and attempts to identify possible policy tools to be applied by public policy-makers to efficiently and effectively approach private governance as a solution, rather than a problem. We propose a six-step theoretical framework and argue that IA techniques should: i) define an integrated framework including both the possibility that private regulation can be used as an alternative or as a complement to public legislation; ii) involve private parties in public IAs in order to define the best strategy or strategies that would ensure achievement of the regulatory objectives; and iii) contemplate the deployment of indicators related to governance and activities of the regulators and their ability to coordinate and solve disputes with other regulators.

Transient apical ballooning syndrome--clinical characteristics, ballooning pattern, and long-term follow-up in a Swiss population

BACKGROUND: Transient apical ballooning syndrome (TABS) or Takotsubo cardiomyopathy mimics acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction, but is considered to have a good prognosis with only moderate elevation of myocardial enzymes and full recovery of left ventricular function. Although it is increasingly reported, its exact incidence, clinical presentation, and prognosis in non-Asian populations remain largely unknown. OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical characteristics and long-term follow-up of patients who presented with TABS at our institution over a 3 year-period. METHODS: Patients were retrospectively retrieved from our local database. Patient charts were carefully reviewed and the diagnosis of TABS was based on the Mayo Clinic diagnostic criteria. Moreover, psychosocial stress or gastrointestinal disease was recorded. RESULTS: During the study period, 13,715 coronary angiographies were performed at our institution, including 2459 patients presenting with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Forty-one TABS were diagnosed, which represents an incidence of 1.7% of ACS-patients and 0.3% of all coronary angiographies performed, respectively. Mean age was 65 years, with 85% women. Clinical presentations included chest pain, dyspnoea, and cardiogenic shock. A preceding psychological or physical condition perceived as "stress" was reported in 61%. At a mean follow-up of 675+/-288 days, none of the patients died of cardiac causes, but two patients had a recurrence of symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: This is the largest cohort of TABS patients reported out of Europe so far. The good overall prognosis and low likelihood of recurrence were confirmed.
