标题:Transformacion del Estado y procesos de descentralización/La propuesta del Banco Mundial en la década de 1990 y las lógicas-intereses en el capitalismo global
摘要:This paper analyzes the way state decentralization, which burst onto the Latin American scene together with sociology and regional planning in the 1980s, was appropriated by the World Bank (WB) to be used in the context of the Washington Consensus in the 1990s. It seeks to describe the types and subsequently the causes of this decentralizing appropriation, by explaining how and why it occurred. In response to the first question, it shows the multidimensional and eventually re-centralized form of the state decentralization proposed by the World Bank. In response to the second question, it describes the creation, through this decentralizing modality, of an intervention device which, in the context of the redefinition of the state that accompanied the demise of the Fordian model of development and the emergence of the post-Fordian development model, selectively combines with the logic-interest of the global capital that dominates this new form of development while deactivating the capacity for coordination of the components of the internal networks that remain encapsulated in the local, regional and national spheres. The emergence of this intervention device, in the new context, clearly contradicts the withdrawal of the state claimed by the Washington Consensus, as well as the analytical objectivity and neutrality regarding the interests with which the WB attempts to present its proposals, obliging local and regional actors to conceive of an alternative state intervention device that will permit an endogenous re-articulation that has been seriously affected by the aforementioned intervention device.
