  • Fiscal Decentralization and Municipal Governance in Mexico the Case of Chihuahua
    Fiscal Decentralization and Municipal Governance in Mexico The Case of Chihuahua Prepared for delivery at the 1997 meeting of the Latin American Studies Association, Continental Plaza Hotel, Guadalajara, Mexico, 17-19 April, 1997 DRAFT Emily Edmonds Elías University of California, San Diego Department of Political Science, 0521 9500 Gilman Dr. La Jolla, California, 92093-0521 (619) 534-3548 [email protected] I gratefully acknowledge the support of a field research grant from the Tinker Foundation and the Center for Iberian and Latin American Studies (CILAS) at the University of California, San Diego. The 1980s was a decade of change in Latin America. Economically the region experienced the most serious crisis since the period of the Great Depression. Politically there was a general move away from the authoritarianism that characterized the preceding decade toward more open, pluralistic forms of government. One of the aspects that accompanied this change in style of governance was the devolution of political power to the state and municipal level. Faced with fiscal crisis and increased political demands for urban public services, many Latin American states began to adopt administrative decentralization policies in an attempt to both reduce financial pressures on the federal government and to increase the efficiency of public service provision. The logic behind this type of reform was straightforward: devolving administrative responsibilities to states and municipalities would not only result in greater allocative efficiency, given that local governments were better situated to assess their priorities and design cost-effective solutions, it would also improve the overall quality of governance because local constituents were thought to be in a better position to monitor public expenditure and policy outcomes in their communities.

  • Antecedentes Históricos Del Municipio En México
    ANTECEDENTES HISTÓRICOS DEL MUNICIPIO EN MÉXICO ÉPOCA PREHISPÁNICA Los antecedentes del municipio en la cultura mexica los encontramos en los calpullis, cuyo gobierno estaba formado por el consejo de ancianos. El calpulli era una organización social y territorial autosuficiente, las familias integrantes producían bienes necesarios y suficientes para su subsistencia. Organización del calpulli: a) El tecuhtli, responsable de la milicia, adiestraba a los jóvenes y dirigía las tropas en caso de guerra. b) Los tequitlatos, dirigían los trabajos comunales. c) Los calpizques, recaudaban los tributos. d) Los tlacuilos, eran los cronistas De la época. e) Sacerdotes y médicos hechiceros, estaban al cuidado del calpulli. LA CONQUISTA DE MÉXICO Y ÉPOCA COLONIAL La colonización en América se justificó jurídicamente a través de la institución municipal. Con la fundación del primer Ayuntamiento, instalado en la Villa Rica de la Veracruz el 22 de abril de 1519, se dio el primer paso a la organización de este cuerpo político y jurídico en el Continente Americano. En un principio se realizó la división, por medio de los señoríos ya existentes y en las extensiones territoriales donde no existía tal división, la milicia se encargaba de ello por medio de las capitulaciones reales, es decir por contratos realizados por la corona. Más tarde la división territorial se organizó en provincias, que se conformaban por pueblos, los que debían tener una cabecera llamada Alcaldía Mayor, siendo obligatorio establecer un Cabildo o Concejo Municipal. Los cabildos de indígenas o repúblicas de indios tenían diferentes funciones como: A.- Recaudar y entregar los tributos a los españoles. B.- Distribuir el trabajo para construcciones o tareas agrícolas.

  • LA GUERRA CIVIL EN ALBOX.Pdf
    LA GUERRA CIVIL EN ALBOX Mª del Pilar Fernández Gallego Esta comunicación quiere mostrar la situación social, económica y política del municipio albojense en el período de tiempo coincidente con el conflicto armado conocido como guerra civil que tuvo lugar en España entre el 18 de julio de 1936 y el 1 de abril de 1939. Los aspectos que serán tratados se repartirán a lo largo de cuatro epígrafes diferenciados por dividirse según el año que se esté analizando. El primer apartado recogerá tanto el nombramiento de Adolfo Juan como alcalde, como la destitución de la Corporación por el Comité de Salud Pública o las primeras quintas de reemplazo llamadas para su incorporación a filas. A lo largo de este epígrafe se recogerá la constitución de la Corporación municipal albojense, la creación de las comisiones municipales o los primeros signos de lucha contra el ejército sublevado. Además, es de resaltar entre los acuerdos llevados a cabo por el Consistorio los referidos a honrar el régimen republicano, especialmente el cambio de nombre de las calles, tema que va a tratarse en distintos momentos de esta comunicación. Recoge también la modificación de la Corporación, consecuencia del decreto del Gobierno de la República que establecería una nueva donde estuviesen representados todos los partidos políticos y sindicatos del municipio. El Ayuntamiento de Albox en 1937 hará un recorrido por la situación social, política y económica del municipio, englobando realidades tan distintas como el envío de las quintas de reemplazo, lo que provocaría la dimisión de distintos cargos para incorporarse al frente, la nueva denominación de calles o la creación de cartillas de racionamiento.

  • Chapter I Local Government: from the Creation of The
    CHAPTER I LOCAL GOVERNMENT: FROM THE CREATION OF THE CABILDO TO THE MODERN DAY AYUNTAMIENTO Colonial government and the creation of the cabildo In order to understand the current condition of local government and the distribution of power among the levels of government in Mexico one must first understand the historical process from which they result. Within this prior understanding of the events that have taken place lies the key to being able to make objective suggestions about what should be done in order to improve the conditions of local government. One could go back to the time of the first cultures that ever existed on what is now Mexican territory in order to identify the reasons for the current conditions of both local government and distribution of power. However, this chapter will focus mainly on the evolution all forms of government that have existed on Mexican territory since the arrival of the Spanish colonizers. This chapter identifies the main events in Mexican history within which lie the origins of contemporary local government and have shaped it throughout the last five hundred years of its existence. This will allow us to understand the logic behind many of these events, which in turn will enable us to comprehend the logic behind the solutions that will eventually be proposed. Before the arrival of Spanish colonizers and the defeat of the Aztec empire in central Mexico, much of the region functioned under a system controlled by the central power that resided in the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan. Even though the surrounding cities and groups remained autonomous to a certain extent, they all had to offer tribute to the Aztecs and obey their rules.
