El presidente del Uruguay, Luis Lacalle Pou, decretó una flexibilidad del régimen de residencia de extranjeros como parte del plan para captar inversores del exterior , incluyendo la radicación de familias, lo que apunta fundamentalmente a los argentinos , pero también a empresarios de cualquier otro país. El nuevo gobierno confía en la potencialidad de Uruguay para atraer empresas y familias, con una institucionalidad política que a ojos de los extranjeros aparece como fuerte y estable, y un clima de negocios propiciado desde el Poder Ejecutivo con un sentido "pro-inversión", dijeron a LA NACION fuentes de la administración Lacalle Pou. "Antes de asumir ya se recogían propuestas para trasladar inversiones, pero los empresarios advertían de algunas restricciones que lo obstaculizaban, por lo que consideramos la necesidad de analizar jurídicamente el caso para facilitar el ingreso al país ", dijeron los informantes. Qué dice el decreto El decreto 163/020, firmado hoy por el presidente Lacalle y su ministra de Economía y Finanzas, Azucena Arbeleche, baja el nivel de la exigencia patrimonial requerida para otorgar la residencia fiscal en Uruguay. MERCOSUR EN LA PRENSA | MERCOSUL NA IMPRENSA Dice que "se considerará que una persona radica la base de sus intereses económicos cuando tenga en territorio nacional una inversión" que equivale a 380.000 dólares , mientras que antes ese tope estaba en casi 2 millones de dólares. Uruguay es un país de puertas abiertas, con una política migratoria que otorga un marco de seguridad pública, jurídica y económica para todas las personas extranjeras que deseen radicarse Lacalle Pou El nuevo monto es móvil y está expresado como 3,5 millones de Unidades Indexadas, que es una unidad de medida que se ajusta diariamente según la tasa de inflación, que en los últimos doce meses está en el 11%. Convertido a dólares, a una cotización de 43 pesos uruguayos, se llega al monto de US$379.221. Para acceder a ese mecanismo de residencia, el decreto establece que la persona debe registrar una presencia física en el país de al menos 60 días, certificada durante el año civil . Además, flexibiliza las condiciones no solo para personas físicas sino también para empresas, lo que regirá para compañías cuyo valor sea superior a 15 millones de unidades indexadas, que equivale al 1º de julio a 1.625.200 dólares . Eso corre para empresas en Uruguay que generen a partir de julio 15 puestos de trabajo directos en relación de dependencia como mínimo. "La política del Poder Ejecutivo en materia de inversiones se basa, fundamentalmente, en ofrecer al mundo un país de oportunidades", manifiesta el presidente en su nuevo decreto, y afirma que "el Uruguay es un país de puertas abiertas, con una política migratoria que otorga un marco de seguridad pública, jurídica y económica para todas las personas extranjeras que deseen radicarse". MERCOSUR EN LA PRENSA | MERCOSUL NA IMPRENSA Uruguay es un país de puertas abiertas, con una política migratoria que otorga un marco de seguridad pública, jurídica y económica para todas las personas extranjeras que deseen radicarse Lacalle Pou Además, sostiene que este país "ofrece como garantía de sus políticas públicas de inversión y migración su institucionalidad, un ámbito de libertad económica y social y una tierra con recursos naturales únicos". La resolución del gobierno uruguayo afirma que la nueva administración "impulsa una política de estímulo a la inversión como instrumento idóneo para la generación de empleo y mejora del bienestar general", y que de esa forma se busca el objetivo de que "puedan instalarse en el Uruguay todos los extranjeros que deseen elegir al país como destino de sus proyectos personales y económicos". Qué pasó El presidente Lacalle Pou anunciaba en campaña electoral su propósito de aumentar la inversión, y que en caso de llegar a la Presidencia promovería medidas para concretar la radicación de empresas y también de familias. Durante el verano pasado, antes de asumir el mando, Lacalle Pou manejó esa posibilidad en una reunión mantenida en Punta del Este con empresarios del sector de la construcción, uno de los rubros en los que más invierten los argentinos a nivel personal. La inversión privada tuvo una época de auge desde 2004 hasta 2012, pero a partir de 2013 estuvo en baja sostenida. Las encuestas periódicas sobre expectativas empresariales mostraban un deterioro de la evaluación de "clima de negocios", lo que se revirtió en el sondeo de este año, incluso hecho en medio de la pandemia de coronavirus. MERCOSUR EN LA PRENSA | MERCOSUL NA IMPRENSA Uruguay tiene la posibilidad de convertirse en un lugar de llegada, no solo de vecinos del Mercosur, sino del mundo Lacalle Pou En la Casa de Gobierno se ha informado que los servicios jurídicos analizan otras medidas para incentivar radicaciones e inversiones, con eximiciones de los impuestos a las ganancias y al capital (tributo al patrimonio). Para eso, Lacalle Pou enviará un proyecto de ley al Parlamento que refuerce los incentivos para atraer capitales. "Uruguay tiene la posibilidad de convertirse en un lugar de llegada, no solo de vecinos del Mercosur, sino del mundo. Y nosotros ahí tenemos algunas cosas para hacer", había dicho Lacalle Pou en el verano, antes de convertirse en presidente. Y dijo que no era solo para traer empresas: "Yo primero voy por la familia, después que estén las familias, van a poder traer la plata. Si tenemos seguridad pública, certezas a largo plazo, el país se va a convertir en un lugar de destino del Cono Sur y también del mundo", agregó entonces Lacalle Pou. El decreto de hoy va en esa línea. MERCOSUR EN LA PRENSA | MERCOSUL NA IMPRENSA Argentina Duro rechazo del PRO al proteccionismo y a la política de derechos humanos del Gobierno Cuando el miércoles a la noche el Gobierno oficializaba tres proyectos de ley que incluyen temas directamente relacionados al reclamo de soberanía de las Malvinas, en cuestiones de territorio y de recursos naturales, la Secretaría de Relaciones Internacionales del PRO activó sus comunicaciones e hizo público el documento que acaban de firmar sus autoridades. Se llama Por una Argentina Integrada al Mundo. En este documento, además de hacer referencia a la "importancia estratégica del Atlántico Sur", al continente Antártico, y a la necesidad de "consolidar nuestra presencia en el Atlántico Sur y así fortalecer nuestro reclamo permanente e irrenunciable sobre las Islas Malvinas, Georgias y Sándwich del Sur", el PRO dejó impresas con su postura fuertes diferencias con la administración de Alberto Fernández, que a su vez, acusó al macrismo de tener "políticas condescendientes" con países como Estados Unidos y el Reino Unido. En materia de comercio internacional, el documento del PRO alentó la promoción de un posicionamiento económico internacional que "permita reducir la pobreza y desarrollarnos". Al mismo tiempo rechazó el proteccionismo y lo que llamó "sus falsas ilusiones de 'protección a la industria nacional" , ya que sus costos en el mediano plazo -señalaron- "representan para nuestras Pymes aumentos en los costos de producción, menor acceso a proveedores de bienes y servicios, dificultades adicionales para exportar y generar divisas, y una pérdida generalizada de credibilidad internacional". El documento está firmado por la presidente del PRO, la ex ministra Patricia Bullrich, por el secretario de Relaciones Internacionales del partido, Fulvio Pompeo, que fue Asuntos Estratégico de la administración de Mauricio Macri. Y fue MERCOSUR EN LA PRENSA | MERCOSUL NA IMPRENSA también acompañado por varias figuras de la administración anterior como el ex canciller Jorge Faurie, la Ex Secretaria de Comercio Exterior de la Nación, Marisa Bircher, los ex embajadores Mariano Caucino, Diego Guelar y Paula Bertol, entre otros. El otro aspecto que destaca del texto es la cuestión venezolana -el macrismo condenó duramente al régimen de Nicolás Maduro- y la cuestión boliviana, sin mencionarla directamente. Como el texto empezaba haciendo alusión a la necesidad de nuevas políticas tras la pandemia del coronavirus, aprovecha para señalar:" No queremos que la crisis sanitaria enferme a nuestras democracias ni podemos permitir que se convierta en una excusa para mirar hacia otro lado y dejar de condenar el autoritarismo o denunciar violaciones de los Derechos Humanos, en especial en nuestro hemisferio".

  • Re-Election and Political Career Paths in the Uruguayan Congress, 1985–99
    Re-Election and Political Career Paths in the Uruguayan Congress, 1985–99 DAVID ALTMAN and DANIEL CHASQUETTI Given the presumed marginal – or at best the ‘rubber-stamp legitimising’ – character of Latin American legislatures, they ‘have escaped careful scrutiny’. Even in cases where legislatures are supposed to play a much more significant role than the continental average, such as Chile, Costa Rica and Uruguay, knowledge of legislative politics is still far from conclusive. This article studies re-election patterns of legislators in Uruguay during the four post-authoritarian elections. During these elections in Uruguay, we observed a decreasing but still high rate of turnover of legislators. These high rates of legislative turnover are affected by a significant number of legislators who do not seek re-election. While inter-party electoral volatility strongly influences the rates of incumbent re-election, intra-party volatility does not seem to have an impact on this phenomenon. Lastly, the closed and blocked lists in conjunction with the Uruguayan multiple simultaneous vote, and the fact that a legislator belongs to the Senate, are additional institutional features that help to explain the turnover and incumbent re-election in the legislature. URUGUAY IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE This paper analyses legislators’ re-election rates in Uruguay during the legislative elections of 1989, 1994 and 1999. Even in cases where legislatures are supposed to play a much more significant role than the continental average, such as Chile, Costa Rica and Uruguay, knowledge of legislative politics is still far from conclusive. During these elections in Uruguay, we observed a decreasing but still high rate of legislative turnover.

  • The Politics of the Middle Class and the Left in Uruguay: Feelings of Insecurityinsecurity,, Solidaritysolidarity,, and Support for Redistribution
    The Politics of the Middle Class and the Left in Uruguay: Feelings of InsecurityInsecurity,, SolidaritySolidarity,, and Support for Redistribution by Jennifer Fender A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Jennifer Fender 2020 The Politics of the Middle Class and the Left in Uruguay: Feelings of InsecurityInsecurity,, SolidaritySolidarity,, and Support for Redistribution Jennifer Fender Doctor of Philosophy Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2020 Abstract This dissertation explores the relationships between the middle class and the Left with a specific focus on attitudes towards redistributive policies. The work is based on an examination of the social attitudes and political propensities of the Uruguayan middle class during the Left governments of the Frente Amplio (FA) (2005-2014) including the lead up to their re-election in 2014. In investigating the attitudes and political proclivities of members of the Uruguayan middle class, I incorporate a consideration of the significant political and economic changes that occurred from the middle of the twentieth century onward. The work combines historical analysis and analysis of in-depth interviews conducted by the author. I argue that the presence of two sets of factors that shape individual’s senses of insecurity and solidarity help to explain middle class support for, or opposition to, redistributive policies. One set involves the presence or absence of a complex of insecurity mitigating factors; the second involves socialization processes that inculcate support for the social norms of equality and collective responsibility. I argue that a combination of insecurity mitigating factors and exposure to socialization processes that inculcate norms of equality and collective responsibility, producing social solidarity, tends to contribute to middle class support for the Left and the redistributive measures it stands for.

  • Political Convergence in South America
    Lund University STVK01 Department of Political Science Tutor: Åsa Knaggård Political Convergence in South America A Case Study of Synchronous Political Phases in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay Jonas Eriksson Abstract This case study considers what appears to be a political convergence in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. Four political transitions that have occurred in all three countries are studied: the military coups of 1964, 1973 and 1976, the transitions back to democracy, the implementations of liberal economic reforms, and the recent turns leftwards. Three different types of explanations are presented, each representing a different view on the question of structure versus agency. These explanations build on theories of diffusion, theories of political cycles and the impact of external factors. Each type of explanation is then analysed separately, resulting in three different analyses. I argue that diffusion seems to have the best explanatory potential, although political cycles also deliver reasonable explanations, whereas the external factors studied – the US and the IMF – fail to give a satisfactory explanation on either transition. In parity with the conclusions of Graham Allison’s Essence of Decision, the most important insight of this thesis is, however, the importance of the perspective for how we understand the problem. Key words: political convergence, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, diffusion, political cycles, external factors, synchronous political phases, Allison Words: 10295 Table of Contents 1 Introduction..............................................................................................................

  • Lead Contamination and the Uneven Developments Of
    In the margins of contamination: lead poisoning and the production of neoliberal nature in Uruguay Daniel Renfrew1 West Virginia University, USA 1. Introduction In Uruguay in 2001, the mass media began reporting on a widespread epidemic of pediatric lead poisoning in the western Montevideo working class district of La Teja. Lead was discovered to be a multi- source pollutant (from battery and metals factories, toxic landfills, automotive emissions, cottage industries, water pipes, and paints) of the air, water, and soil of Montevideo and several other cities, creating an unprecedented environmental health problem. Despite being the world's oldest environmental disease and a decades-long occupational and environmental hazard in Uruguay, lead poisoning was never before officially recognized as a problem. Lead contamination in Uruguay occurred in a context of widening social inequality and the dismantling of a welfare state once hailed as an "exceptional" model of development in Latin America. Amid processes of neoliberalism and regional integration through MERCOSUR, and despite a "Natural Uruguay" national marketing campaign that celebrates the country's environmental quality, lead became Uruguay's most extensive instance of environmental contamination and inspired the largest grassroots environmental movement in its history. This article situates the discovery of lead poisoning within recent processes of neoliberal and environmental reform. It argues that industrial contamination and its socio-political responses have become prevalent and even predictable through neoliberal-inspired transformations in production and consumption, the dismantling of state services, and increased social vulnerability to affliction. Contrary to orthodox theories of neoliberal restructuring, however, environmental concerns have provoked state bureaucratic expansion, rather than contraction, bringing about new forms of environmental governance and enabling environmental politics across social scales.

El Frente Amplio (FA), partido de centro izquierda en el gobierno desde 2005, perdió la presidencia a manos de una coalición de partidos de centro-derecha, la Coalición Multicolor liderada por Luis Lacalle Pou del Partido Nacional (PN). Este artículo ilustra la importancia de las variables económicas en las elecciones presidenciales en el Uru- guay. La alternancia de partidos en el gobierno estuvo acompañada de cambios en el bloque de centro derecha del sistema de partidos. Un nuevo partido de derecha de creación meteórica, Cabildo Abierto (CA), logró obtener el 10% de los votos bajo el liderazgo del excomandante del Ejército. De esta forma se convirtió en un actor relevante para la nueva coalición de gobierno, en tanto permite las mayorías parlamentarias. Palabras clave: elecciones, Uruguay, sistema de partidos. ABSTRACT The Uruguayan political system underwent major changes during 2019. The Frente Am- plio (Broad Front, FA), a center-left party that had been in office since 2005, lost the nation- al elections against a coalition of center-right parties. This article illustrates the importance of economic variables in presidential elections in Uruguay. The latter coalition was named Coalición Multicolor (Multicolor Coalition) and was led by Luis Lacalle Pou from the Partido Nacional (Partido Nacional, PN).

  • ELECTIONS in URUGUAY: 284 Same Colours, New Government, DECEMBER Greater Challenges 2014
    Centro de Estudios y Documentación InternacionalesCentro de Barcelona E-ISSN 2014-0843 D.L.: B-8438-2012 opiniónAMÉRICA LATINA ELECTIONS IN URUGUAY: 284 Same colours, new government, DECEMBER greater challenges 2014 Santiago Villar, research assistant, CIDOB fter a resounding victory in the first round of voting, with the candidate from the ruling party prevailing by more than 17 points over his closest competitor (Luis Lacalle Pou of the Partido Nacional (PN)), few doubts Aremained about who would eventually be elected in these elections. Former pre- sident Tabaré Vázquez (2005-2010) received 56% of the vote; the best result for a Uruguayan head of state in the last 70 years. The new president has managed to maintain high levels of public approval for both his administration and his personal image, which, in Uruguay, is even superior to that of José Mujica himself. Tabaré Vázquez becomes the third consecutive president from the ranks of the Frente Amplio (FA), a coalition of left-wing parties formed 43 years ago that definitively broke with the country’s classical bipartisanship. The good results in the first round were reflected in the formation of the parlia- ment, with a majority won in both chambers. In the senate, the FA has 15 seats, to which may be added the vice-president, who acts as president of the senate with the right to take the floor and vote. In the chamber of representatives they won 50 of the 99 seats. On November 30th, after confirming his victory, Tabaré Vázquez gave a speech in which he made clear that his second mandate, “will not be more of the same, because the Uruguay of today is neither that of 2005 nor that of 2010”.

  • Party System Change and Transparency in Uruguay
    Taiwan Journal of Democracy, Volume 15, No. 1: 113-129 Party System Change and Transparency in Uruguay Daniel Buquet and Rafael Piñeiro Rodríguez Abstract Uruguay is a “contemporary achiever” in terms of transparency, a country that only recently has come to be considered an open access regime and has registered modest economic achievements over the last thirty-five years. Using the case of Uruguay, this essay shows how a change in party system competitive equilibrium-from a system based on clientelistic competition to one grounded in programmatic competition-is the driver that transformed Uruguay into an open access regime, under which politicians’ corrupt behavior is penalized by citizens. Anticorruption legislation in Uruguay did not bring about this change; rather, it was a product of this change. This explains the means and the reach of the new system of norms, which is not substantially stricter, but is more effective in its implementation than in other countries in the region. These reforms were not instituted in response to a crisis of legitimacy like those that motivated other countries to approve such norms, but rather in response to the need to regulate political practices and the bureaucracy in the new context of programmatic competition. Keywords: Clientelism, open access regimes, programmatic electoral competition, transparency, Uruguay. Changing the rules of the game in a low-enforcement environment seems like a useless task. As Abraham Lincoln said, “Laws without enforcement are just good advice.” Yet, much of the effort to combat corruption around the world has consisted of debate about the most effective laws to control it.
