It was prepared at the request of the Republic of Argentina and is the fourth country review conducted by the OECD Working Party on State Ownership and Privatisation Practices (the "Working Party"), the body responsible for encouraging and overseeing the effective implementation of the SOE Guidelines. The review process is open to OECD as well as partner countries. The report is based on information as of 31 December 2017 that was volunteered by the Argentinian authorities and independently researched by the OECD Secretariat. It was produced by Arijete Idrizi and Héctor Lehuedé of the OECD Corporate Affairs Division that provides secretariat support to the Working Party. Guidance was provided by the Chair of the Working Party, Lars Erik Fredriksson of the Swedish Ministry of Enterprise and Innovation, and Hans Christiansen from the OECD Secretariat. The report was approved for publication by the Working Party in March 2018. The report is structured as follows. Part A provides information about the context in which Argentinian SOEs operate. Part B refers successively to the different chapters of the SOE Guidelines, assessing Argentinian norms and practices in their light. The final section sets out the conclusions and recommendations for improving the corporate governance framework applicable to Argentinian SOEs. The recommendations are forward-looking, aiming to assist policymakers and government bodies exercising ownership functions in responding to remaining challenges and needed developments. Additional information is provided in the four annexes.

  • La Privatización Y Desguace Del Sistema Ferroviario Argentino Durante El Modelo De Acumulación Neoliberal
    La privatización y desguace del sistema ferroviario argentino durante el modelo de acumulación neoliberal Nombre completo autor: Franco Alejandro Pagano Pertenencia institucional: Universidad Nacional de Cuyo Correo electrónico: [email protected] Mesa temática: Nº 6: Sociología Económica: las correlaciones de fuerzas en los cambios de los patrones acumulación del capital. Disciplinas: Ciencia política y administración pública. Sociología. Palabras claves: Privatización, neoliberalismo, ferrocarriles, transporte, modelo de acumulación, éxodo rural. Resumen: En Argentina, a partir de 1976, el sistema industrial y productivo del país sufrió fuertes transformaciones a partir de la implementación del paradigma neoliberal imperante a nivel internacional. Este cambio estructural, implementado de forma gradual, alteró también -conjuntamente a las relaciones de producción- la dinámica social, laboral, educacional e institucional del país, imprimiendo una lógica capitalista a todo el accionar humano. Como parte de ello se dio en este periodo el proceso de concesiones, privatización y cierre de la mayoría de los ramales ferroviarios que poseía el país, modificando hasta nuestros días la concepción de transporte y perjudicando seriamente al colectivo nacional. De las graves consecuencias que esto produjo trata este trabajo. Ponencia: 1.0 Golpe de Estado de 1976. Etapa militar del neoliberalismo El golpe cívico-militar del 24 de marzo de 1976 podría reconocerse como la partida de nacimiento del neoliberalismo en la Argentina, modelo económico que se implementará por medio la fuerza -buscando el disciplinamiento social- con terror y violencia. Se iniciaba así un nuevo modelo económico basado en la acumulación 1 rentística y financiera, la apertura irrestricta, el endeudamiento externo y el disciplinamiento social” (Rapoport, 2010: 287-288) Como ya sabemos este nuevo modelo de acumulación comprende un conjunto de ideas políticas y económicas retomadas del liberalismo clásico: el ya famoso laissez faire, laissez passer.
