Book excerpt: A nivel global, ciudades buscan desarrollar soluciones de transporte asequibles, ecológicas y socialmente responsables que puedan satisfacer las necesidades de conectividad de las crecientes poblaciones metropolitanas y respaldar el futuro desarrollo económico y urbano. Cuando los sistemas ferroviarios urbanos se planifican e implementan adecuadamente como parte de una red de transporte público más amplia, éstis pueden brindar vías rápidas de movilidad y acceso vital a los centros urbanos desde la periferias. Los servicios ferroviarios urbanos de alto rendimiento, cuando se abordan cuidadosamente en el contexto de un proyecto de desarrollo, pueden ayudar a mejorar la calidad de vida de los ciudadanos brindándoles acceso a oportunidades laborales y servicios esenciales, tanto del entorno urbano inmediato como de comunidades vecinas. Este manual sintetiza y difunde conocimientos sobre planificación, implementación y operación de los proyectos ferroviarios urbanos para: i) destacar la necesidad de realizar estudios tempranos y planificar los proyectos, ii) contribuir a que los proyectos sean más sostenibles (desde el punto de vista económico, social y ambiental); iii) mejorar los beneficios socioeconómicos de los usuarios y el acceso de estos a distintas oportunidades; iv) maximizar el valor de la participación privada, cuando corresponda, y v) fortalecer la capacidad de las instituciones encargadas de la gestión e implementación de los proyectos. Se ofrece experiencia para lidiar con los desafíos técnicos, institucionales y financieros a los que se enfrentan los tomadores de decisiones de proyectos ferroviarios urbanos. Se reúnen los conocimientos especializados del personal del Banco Mundial y el aporte de numerosos especialistas para sintetizar buenas prácticas y recomendaciones basadas en experiencia global que no responden a intereses comerciales, financieros ni políticos, entre otros. El material presentado tiene como objetivo servir de guía imparcial para maximizar el impacto y afrontar los desafíos que conllevan los sistemas ferroviarios urbanos en las ciudades de países desarrollados y en desarrollo. No se brinda un enfoque único, sino que se reconocen las complejidades y los distintos contextos existentes cuando se aborda un proyecto de desarrollo ferroviario urbano; de ese modo, se apoya a las autoridades a prepararse para formular las preguntas adecuadas, analizar las cuestiones clave, llevar a cabo los estudios necesarios, aplicar las herramientas apropiadas y aprender de las buenas prácticas internacionales, todo ello en el oportuno momento del proceso de desarrollo del proyecto.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of the World Bank has been revised and expanded by the Terminology Unit in the Languages Services Division of the World Bank in collaboration with the English, Spanish, and French Translation Sections. The Glossary is intended to assist the Bank's translators and interpreters, other Bank staff using French and Spanish in their work, and free-lance translator's and interpreters employed by the Bank. For this reason, the Glossary contains not only financial and economic terminology and terms relating to the Bank's procedures and practices, but also terms that frequently occur in Bank documents, and others for which the Bank has a preferred equivalent. Although many of these terms, relating to such fields as agriculture, education, energy, housing, law, technology, and transportation, could be found in other sources, they have been assembled here for ease of reference. A list of acronyms occurring frequently in Bank texts (the terms to which they refer being found in the Glossary) and a list of international, regional, and national organizations will be found at the end of the Glossary.

Brewer-Carias Este libro recoge, en un solo volumen presentado con una sistematizacion impecable, toda la extensa obra del profesor Allan R. Brewer-Carias sobre el tema de los Contratos Administrativos, Contratos Publico, Contratos del Estado, escrita y publicada durante los ultimos cincuenta anos sobre uno de los temas que pueden considerarse como neuralgicos del derecho administrativo, y cuyo desarrollo ha contribuido a la reafirmacion de la propia autonomia de la disciplina. Se trata del tema de los "contratos administrativos" o mas general, de los contratos publicos, que estan sometidos a un regimen preponderante de derecho publico (sin dejar de nutrirse de los principios aplicables a los contratos en general), conforme al cual, entre otros aspectos, deben contener clausulas de caracter obligatorio, por ejemplo, en materia de inmunidad de jurisdiccion, en materia ambiental, o de orden temporal en el caso de concesiones administrativas; ademas, estan sujetos a regulaciones especificas sobre procedimientos especiales para la seleccion de contratistas, como son la licitacion y el concurso; sobre la prevision de poderes que se consideran exorbitantes del derecho comun, a las Administraciones Publicas contratantes para dirigir y controlar la ejecucion de los contratos publicos, para modificar el alcance de las obligaciones contractuales del co-contratante, para sancionar sus incumplimientos, e incluso, para rescindir unilateralmente el contrato por incumplimientos del co-contratante o por razones de interes general, lo que en materia de concesiones, equivale al rescate anticipado de las mismas. Dicho regimen de derecho publico ha conducido, por ejemplo al desarrollo del principio del equilibrio economico del contrato, que impone a la Administracion contratante el deber de preservarlo y restablecerlo debiendo compensar al co-contratante, cuando se rompe, por ejemplo, en casos de modificaciones al contrato, o de rescision unilateral por razones de interes general o por las afectaciones al contrato derivadas de un "hecho del principe;" principios todos cuyo origen remoto esta en el derecho frances que tanto influyo en esta materia en el desarrollo del derecho administrativo espanol e iberoamericano. La obra del profesor Brewer-Carias, aun cuando teniendo como punto de referencia el derecho venezolano, abarca el estudio de todos esos principios relativos a la contratacion publica, los cuales son tratados en los cuatro Libros que componen el la obra: El primero sobre "La teoria de los contratos administrativos" que recoge un trabajo suyo de 1964, referido a los principios generales sobre la contratacion administrativa; el segundo, sobre los "contratos administrativos,"que recoge un libro de 1992, donde estudia, en particular, el tema del sentido actual de la clasica distincion entre los "contratos administrativos" y los llamados "contratos de derecho privado de la Administracion; ademas de las caracteristicas fundamentales de los mismos, el regimen de su formacion y efectos, la responsabilidad contractual y el contencioso administrativo de los contratos de la Administracion. El tercero, referido a varios estudios contemporaneos sobre el tema mas general de los contratos publicos, la revivencia de la nocion de "contrato administrativo," y el regimen especifico de las concesiones administrativas. Y el cuarto, referido al estudio especifico de los temas de la inmunidad relativa de jurisdiccion del Estado en los contratos publicos, del tema del arbitraje como medio de solucion de controversias en la contratacion publica, y los casos de consentimiento del Estado en materia de arbitraje internacional ante el Centro Internacional de Arreglo de Diferencias relativas a Inversiones (CIADI).

Download or read book Open Government written by Mila Gascó-Hernández and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-02-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On January 2009, President Obama signed the Memorandum on Transparency and Open Government. The memorandum declares the new Administration’s commitment to creating an unprecedented level of openness in Government and establishing a system linking three principles: transparency, public participation and collaboration. Since then, federal agencies in the United States and public administrations around the world have embarked on open government initiatives and have worked to redefine their relationship with citizens and with each other. On September 20th, 2011, eight governments gathered in New York City to launch the Open Government Partnership, a new multilateral initiative to promote open government. The benefits attributed to open government are many and by no means universally shared. They include the claims that open government leads to more effective decision making and services, safeguards against corruption, enables public scrutiny, and promotes citizens’ trust in government. However, the speed of events and pressure to implement has given rise to confusion and ambiguity. Although many of the initiatives have been based on opening data and on promoting open action, governments have followed different directions and interpretations when it has come to implement them and development of open government has become unequal and heterogeneous. This book provides a comprehensive study of recent major developments of open government around the world, and analyzes the importance of open government efforts for public governance, making it of interest to academics and practitioners worldwide.

Download or read book La modificaci n de los contratos del sector p blico written by Xavier Codina García-Andrade and published by Boletín Oficial del Estado. This book was released on 2019-12-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La modificación de los contratos del sector público ha estado tradicionalmente presente en la ejecución de todo contrato público, llegándose a hablar de la existencia de una auténtica "cultura del modificado". Este trabajo aborda esta figura partiendo de la siguiente premisa: no es posible ni deseable su prohibición, al ser una herramienta fundamental para las entidades del sector público. La solución pasa por una regulación que, sin impedir su utilización, sea capaz de evitar el mal uso y abuso que se hace de ella. A lo largo del texto se examina el enfoque licito-céntrico como solución común adoptada por los distintos ordenamientos. En particular, se estudia la regulación que de la modificación lleva a cabo la Ley de Contratos del Sector Público aprobada en 2017, dando respuesta a cuestiones tales como cuál es su origen, qué novedades aporta, qué dificultades plantea, a qué contratos es aplicable, o qué especialidades contiene.
