Abstract
La Tesis Cooperación España- Colombia: un enfoque de Economía Política, realiza un análisis sobre los problemas de agencia existentes en la cooperación al desarrollo, entre países donantes y receptores, aplicado al caso de Colombia. Teorías como Elección Pública, Gobernanza, Economía Neo institucional, sirven de marco para contrastar fallos de gobierno, asimetrías de información, riesgo moral, selección adversa, buscadores de renta. La investigación aporta las siguientes evidencias: Hay necesidad de impulsar la gobernanza en la cooperación al desarrollo, por que las decisiones sobre cooperación bilateral se toman entre los gobiernos de los países, sin evidencias reales de procesos de gobernanza que integre en el diseño de estrategias de desarrollo, la participación de representantes del Estado, sociedad civil y mercado – sector privado. Por esta razón en los foros de Eficacia de la ayuda como Accra (2008) y Busan (20011), se impulsó el concepto de apropiación democrática, que incluye como actor de cooperación a la sociedad civil. Sin embargo, este proceso no está aún integrado en un claro arreglo institucional. Los principios de eficacia de la ayuda de la declaración de Paris, compromete al país donante a alinearse con el país receptor. Sin embargo otorgar todo este poder discrecional a países receptores, puede ser más dificultoso en naciones con menor fortalecimiento institucional por problemas como corrupción, estados frágiles o conflictos armados. El caso colombiano es un ejemplo de los problemas de agencia por conflicto entre ideas e intereses, que genera la alineación de países donantes con receptores. Después de la adhesión de Colombia a la Declaración de Paris en 2007, el compromiso del gobierno de Colombia era acordar la cooperación de forma bilateral, contando con el alineamiento del país receptor. Por lo tanto el gobierno no vio la necesidad de seguir consensuando sus estrategias de cooperación con la participación de donantes y sociedad civil, como lo hizo en la primera estrategia de cooperación de Colombia 2003 – 2006, lo que demuestra como la adhesión a la Declaración de Paris desestimuló procesos de gobernanza...
Thesis Cooperation Spain Colombia: a focus on Political Economy performs an analysis of the agency problems existing on development cooperation between donors and recipient countries, applied to the case of Colombia. Theories like Public Choice, Governance, Neo-Institutional Economics, provide a framework to contrast government failures, information asymmetries, moral hazard, adverse selection, rent-seeking. The research provides the following evidence: There is need to boost governance in development cooperation because decisions about bilateral cooperation are taken between countries governments with no real evidence that governance processes integrate into the design of development strategies representatives participation from the State, civil society and market-private sector. For this reason in the forums of Aid effectiveness Accra (2008) and Busan (2011), the concept of democratic ownership was promoted which includes civil society as a factor in cooperation. However, this process is not yet integrated into a clear institutional arrangement. The principles of aid effectiveness of the Paris Declaration commits the donating country to align with the recipient country. However all this discretionary power granted to recipient countries can be more difficult in countries with low institutional strength for issues as corruption, fragile states or armed conflict. The Colombian case is an example of agency problems because of conflict between ideas and interests generated by the alignment of donor countries with recipients. After the adhesion of Colombia to the Declaration of Paris in 2007, the Colombian government's commitment was to arrange cooperation bilaterally, counting with the alignment of the recipient country. Therefore the government did not see the need for consensus on their cooperation strategies with the participation of donors and civil society as it did in the first cooperation strategy Colombia 2003 - 2006, demonstrating how the adherence to the Declaration of Paris unstimulated governance processes. Donor countries such as Spain justify in their cooperation plans that the aid is carried out in Colombia, because of the existence of an armed conflict and from the perspective of protection to the victims. However they have had to be aligned in periods of government of President Alvaro Uribe from 2002 to 2010, with its denial of internal conflict and no declaration of victims...
