Pactos sociales para una protección social más inclusiva: Experiencias, obstáculos y posibilidades en América Latina y Europa

Presentaciones de Alicia Bárcena y Christof Kersting.

Panorama Social da América Latina 2014. Síntese

Nesta edição de 2014 do Panorama Social da América Latina se apresentam as medições realizadas pela CEPAL da pobreza por renda e se analisa a pobreza a partir de uma ótica multidimensional. A aplicação destes dois enfoques aos dados sobre os países da região permite reforçar a ideia de que, para além dos avanços alcançados na última década, a pobreza persiste como um fenômeno estrutural que caracteriza a sociedade latino-americana. Com o objeto de contribuir a uma formulação mais abrangente das políticas públicas para superar a pobreza e a desigualdade socioeconômica, ademais de examinar as tendências recentes do gasto social, o documento se aprofunda na análise de brechas em três âmbitos: juventude e desenvolvimento, desigualdade de gênero no mercado de trabalho e segregação residencial urbana.

Gestão do ouro azul no contexto globalizado Neoliberal: bem econômico ou bem social?

The neoliberalism based on the Washington Consensus advised privatization as the most effective alternative for the management of natural resources. The question is what is prioritizing efficiency, market or welfare? The growing concern about the water issue has been highlighted in discussions in international policy debates, and what it turns out is the prominence of corporate and economic interests over social and environmental. The water is in crisis, there are several sources of popular conflicts around the world contrary to how this resource is being offered, as the Water War occurred in 2000 in the city of Cochabamba. It is necessary to respect its limitations to ensure their future availability and choose the best development model that favors the effectiveness of their control. The international proliferation of commercial vision concerning water stipulated privatization of their management as ideal rule, which increased rates, concentrated income, has not improved the quality nor promoted the conquest of equal access to water for most systems that provides these services, this is, privatization has not brought positive results that outweigh the harm of its implementation. Water is an essential commodity for life of living beings, in all its stages, basic reason to develop plans, rules and commitments that ensure its conservation and provide, as soon as possible, a valid alternative for the sustainable management in long term
