  • Dr. Marco Ferroni -- Profile
    Dr. Marco Ferroni -- Profile Marco Ferroni is Chairman of the System Management Board of the CGIAR, an international food and agriculture research partnership with a track record in crop and livestock improvement, agricultural development and growth, sustainable natural resource management and both food security and better nutrition and health. Mr. Ferroni focuses on renewal and modernization in his role while ensuring strategic oversight of R&D portfolios, funder engagement, change management to position the organization for success in the 21st century and ‘go-to-market’ strategies in partnership with governments and both commercial and non-profit actors. A strong analyst, advocate, motivator and communicator, Mr. Ferroni served as Executive Director of the Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture (SFSA) for ten years to September 2017. Working in partnership with others, the Foundation identifies and develops scalable solutions for farmers, tests them and fosters their progression to the market under ambitious impact frameworks in crop improvement research, seed systems development, mechanization, agricultural index insurance and finance, digital decision tools, and farmer-empowering links to supply chains and markets, among other aspects of producer and farm sector support. Mr. Ferroni shaped the Foundation as an incubator of technologies and services, contributed potentially disruptive solutions in weather insurance and seed systems, among other aspects, and achieved freedom to operate for SFSA as an independent corporate Foundation in ways unequalled in the crop science industry. Earlier in his career, Mr. Ferroni held executive and senior advisory positions at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) and the World Bank in Washington DC. He was a member of the Board of Directors at IDB and later had responsibility for technical and advisory services to Country Departments in social sectors, information technology, and agriculture as Deputy Manager of the Sustainable Development Department.

INTRODUCTION ¶1 Chile’s misuse of the label of terrorism should not shield the government from accountability for human rights violations against the indigenous Mapuche. Despite significant progress in its transition to democracy, the prosecution of Mapuche under the Prevention of Terrorism Act (“Terrorism Act”), for acts not internationally considered to be terrorism, has caused significant erosion of rule of law principles in Chile. Rule of law principles continue to emerge as important barometers for national compliance with international human rights.

El autor construyó mapas espaciales del año 2001 y, los comparó con los de 1989, obteniendo interesantes resultados. Primero, el radicalismo político de los años ochentas ha desaparecido desde la perspectiva del votante. Segundo, al actitud pro mercado, adoptada por el Partido por la Democracia (PPD) en algu- nos tópicos particulares (partido cuyas raíces se encuentran en la izquierda) ha llevado a sus candidatos a situarse a la derecha de algunos Demócrata Cristianos, situación impensable veinte años atrás. I. INTRODUCTION The Spatial Theory of Voting is the reigning paradigm in formal studies of political competition and elections. This theory, initially developed by Black (1958) and Downs (1957), gave birth to a vast literature in the public choice arena. Later contributions of Davis and Hinich (1966), Kadane (1972), Shepsle (1972), Hinich and Pollard (1981), Shepsle and Weingstag (1981), Enelow and Hinich (1982b) and Hinich and Munger (1994) among others, have placed the spatial theory of voting on a firm theoretical ground.

LADB Article Id: 79513 ISSN: 1060-4189 President Michelle Bachelet Hoping to Scale Back Chile’s Blanket Abortion Ban by Benjamin Witte-Lebhar Category/Department: Chile Published: 2015-01-09 Since its implementation in 1989, shortly before the end of the dictatorship of Gen. Augusto Pinochet (1973-1990), Chile’s all-out ban on abortion—even in cases of rape or when the pregnancy puts the mother’s life at risk—has proven to be as unyielding as it is unusual. But in recent months, real pressure to soften the stance has begun to coalesce, raising the prospect that 2015, when Chile marks the 25th anniversary of its return to democracy, could finally deliver changes to a law that sets the South American country apart from all but a handful of nations. Only Nicaragua, El Salvador, Honduras, and Malta have similarly restrictive abortion rules. The Dominican Republic, which also had a blanket ban, loosened its abortion legislation just last month.

This dissertation analyzes the nature of party-voter linkages in two highly institutionalized party-systems of the region: Chile and Uruguay. Both cases should produce high- quality representation given certain important preconditions: partisan capacities, democratic contestation opportunities, and potential for grievance mobilization. However, this work shows that even in these best case scenarios the possibilities for structuring programmatic representation in contemporary Latin America are low. I explain differences in political representation through a framework of conjunctural causation that incorporates the long-term evolution of social and state structures into the analysis of party-systems and party-voter linkage configurations.
