Abstract:
The scientific article examines the key factors of the influence of technocracy on the tendentious aspects of the development of democracy.It has been established that the form of government and the peculiarities of the choice of value approaches to empowering individuals with the powers to form and implement state policy affect the development of democratic processes in one or another state.It is emphasized that during the last few years, anxiety about the future of democracy has spread throughout the world. Scholars have documented a global “democratic recession” and argue that even long-established “consolidated” democracies may be losing their commitment to freedom and leaning toward more authoritarian policies.It has been determined that pro-democratic attitudes co-exist to varying degrees with openness to non-democratic forms of government, including the rule of a strong leader, experts or the military. Even in established democracies, non-democratic models find some support. Although commitment to representative democracy is relatively high in affluent, strong democracies, significant minorities in such countries are open to non-democratic alternatives.Emphasized, technocracy is a model of governance in which decision-makers are elected to office based on their expertise and expertise in a particular field. In practice, since technocrats must always be appointed by some higher authority, the political structure and incentives that influence that authority will always also play a role in the selection of technocrats.It is clear that an official who is called a technocrat may not possess the political acumen or charisma normally expected of an elected politician. Instead, a technocrat can demonstrate more pragmatic and focused problem-solving skills in the political arena.In a state where citizens are guaranteed certain rights, technocrats may seek to encroach on them if they believe that the application of their specialized knowledge will satisfy a wider range of public interests. A technocrat can make decisions based on calculations of data, not based on the impact on the population, individual citizens or sections of the population.It has been established that in the modern world we have the opportunity to observe the phenomenon of digital technocracy. Noted, technical experts, artificial intelligence, rule many areas of politics in many parts of Europe. However, EU member states differ significantly in their approaches to privacy regulation, for example, in terms of setting privacy standards.

Abstract:
The government of the former Prime-Minister of Ukraine Olexiy Honcharuk named itself “the government of technocrats”. This shows that the concept of technocracy becomes attractive in Ukraine. Technocracy is the form of government, which attempts to distance itself from political representation or affiliation with a particular ideology. Technocrats derive their legitimacy from their skills and expertise, and focus primarily on problem-solving and optimizing the society’s useful functions. Technocracy has always been a promising political concept. The Republic by Plato can be regarded as the first attempt to substantiate a technocratic society, in which power proceeds from the expertise of its dominant elite. Technocracy was very appealing in the industrial age, when scientific management of factories inspired the idea that society at large could be governed by similar methods. Today, digital technologies and Big Data reinvigorate the technocratic project. In this article it has been shown that technocracy, if taken too far, can be antithetical to liberal democracy and its core value – political freedom. Technocratic society resembles a corporation run by the board of directors rather than a republic of citizens. We have pointed out the factors, which make it appealing in the modern world. We then have analyzed the ideas of Howard Scott, the founder of the movement Technocracy Inc., who advocated this political model in the industrial age, and Parag Khanna, who has made similar claims about the benefits of technocracy in the digital age. It has been proven that both these thinkers share the same illiberal mindset including the common faith in the applicability of scientific methods of social management without regard for popular votes and opinions, admiration of autocratic powers of the day, and disregard for democratic procedures, which they see as hurdles on the path toward economic well-being and political domination. Finally, we asked the question: if the challenge to political freedom in Ukraine proceeds from technocracy, will it be defended in the same way as during the three Ukrainian Maidans (1990, 2004, 2014)? We deliberately leave this question unanswered, hoping that the answer will be investigated in future publications.

Abstract:
The study examines the position of a man and society in the philosophy of technology and technocracy development that were connected with the technological progress in Europe and North America in the 19th century. The issue of relations within the “man – machine” system has become a great interest among sociologists, historians, psychologists and philosophers. The study is based on methods of analysis and synthesis of scientific writings from Plato to F. Dessauer, who referred to the important role of science and technology in the society development. The technology increasing impact on people’s lives was reflected in the emergence of technocratic concepts. They reflected the vision of technological evolution modern problems and a vision of its future development. The cornerstone of the technocracy concepts was the idea of political power transition to the technocrats’ social layer. However, during the 20th century, technocrats’ categories like scientific and technological intelligentsia, plants and factories heads, scientists and engineers did not constitute a unified political power. They were invited to discuss the economic development problems, as experts, where they were adapted to the existing political regimes rather than trying to modify them. The technocratic strata of population transformation, their political views and preferences, the impact on the socio-political situation in the country had become the main topics in the respective philosophical concepts. Thus, one important issue is man’s status in a technological society, which in turn is a relevant topic for study in the 21 st century, the century of technology.

Abstract:The technocrat, a supposedly apolitical figure who joins government on the basis of technical expertise, looms large in discussions of governance. The empowerment of technocrats has sometimes been taken as a barometer for Africa’s economic and democratic progress. Rejecting this conventional wisdom, this article argues that technocrats are inevitably trapped in a web of politics—politicians leverage the apolitical image of technocrats for political gain, and public debates implicate technocrats as targets of protest. This article pursues this argument through a case study of Nigeria, where technocrats were both politicized and politicizing figures during the rule of the People’s Democratic Party between 1999 and 2015.

Abstract:
The paper deals with technocracy as one of the ways to organize the political life of society and variants of the state system. The paper analyzes the concept of technocracy and provides an overview of the main classical concepts of technocracy. It states that the concept of technocracy does not have an unambiguous definition, but has three basic features. Classical technocracy relies on the principle of exclusivity and the ideal of aristocratic rule laid down in Plato’s writings. The paper describes a new -deliberative model of technocracy, tailored on the principle of inclusiveness. Deliberative technocracy is a kind of technocracy by which political (and, in particular, state) decisions are taken based on expert opinion. Expert opinion is shaped following intellectual operations and is delineated in expert findings. Deliberative technocracy proclaims neither the power of abstract demos (mass men) nor the power of intellectual aristocracy. Deliberative technocracy brings a new force onto the political stage, otherwise referred to as experts. Thus, deliberative technocracy implies the majority rule, not the minority... but it is the rule of a qualified and competent majority.

Abstract:
The article addresses the context of the transition and evolution of post-industrial societies, in which technocracy is emerging as an alternative to traditional democracy, better able to cope with the challenges of the present day. The purpose of this article is to explore how the level of meta-analysis contributes to assessing the effectiveness of technocracy compared to democracy by analyzing the nature of the crisis of democracy, the relationship between democracy and technocracy, the advantages of technocracy over democracy, the changes required by technocracy, and the impact of technocracy on the quality of social life and political power. The research problem, therefore, is to evaluate the effectiveness of democracy versus technocracy as a political system. This study conducts a holistic and comparative analysis of technocracy, democracy and their interrelationship in the context of contemporary political systems. Technocracy, based on the optimisation of processes and data, offers long-term strategies and instant responses to social and economic change. Despite this, critics point to its lack of moral and ideological underpinnings, leading to risks such as bureaucratisation and specialisation, limiting pluralism and individual freedom. An analysis of technocracy in the context of Neil Postman's concept shows the potential risk of losing social values, authority and individual freedom due to bureaucratisation. Technocracy, as a cult of science and technology, deifies science and reifies religion, leading to totalitarianism and dehumanisation, transforming individuals into means of production and consumption. This study emphasises that technocracy is not clearly positive or negative, but a complex phenomenon. On the one hand, it can bring efficiency and social development and, on the other, lead to a loss of fundamental values and freedom. The analysis of this issue takes into account different perspectives and contexts, allowing for a fuller understanding of its implications for contemporary societies. The study presented here is an in-depth analysis of technocracy, revealing its advantages, disadvantages and the risks it poses to society. It offers a comprehensive perspective on technocracy and its relationship with democracy, shedding light on the controversial debate on the future of governance in the post-industrial era.

Abstract:
Techno-bureaucratic governance is fundamental to contemporary public service. This is because the roles of the bureaucrats and technocrats become more relevant in policy formulation and implementation when the government had to (re)invent its institutions to move from routine administration to that of development planning and management. Utilizing a qualitative approach, the paper notes that techno-bureaucratic ideology values technical expertise itself and its technical experts, efficiency, economic development and effective public service delivery. Adopting comparative perspective, the paper examines techno-bureaucratic governance and public service delivery in Indonesia and Nigeria. The paper takes a cursory look at the similarities and differences between the two countries. The paper notes that the technocracy nurtured by the New Order in Indonesia was cohesive and effective because of its technical expertise and has helped Indonesia to turn oil income into productive investments,whereas in Nigeria the oil income was used for prestigious projects to the detriment of productive investments. The paper therefore recommend among others that developing societies need a new strategy in delivery services in their public service, and this can be achieved through skilled <br />professionals, technocrats and knowledge based actors. It concludes that for public service to deliver effective services, an efficient bureaucracy and technocracy remain invaluable.

Abstract:
The article consists of three parts. In the first part, the discussions on technocracy in the twentieth century are related to the problems of dynamics of technocracy in the European Union. In the second part, the paper tries to point to the fact that the problem of technocracy is already determined by the genesis of EU. In this section the paper articulates the special contribution of German ordoliberalism in relation to EU structures and technocratic governmentality. Specifically, the juridization and economization of politics, and the economization of constitutionality are mentioned. The third part deals with the momentum of technocracy after the crisis in 2008 and the technocracy is treated as a crisis-based guardianship. The paper concludes that given modalities of technocracy in EU are not accidental or by products; it can be derived from the genesis and structure of the EU.

This thesis develops an intersectional, critical analysis of the field of practice known as Civic Tech and highlights other relevant community-organizing and activist practices that utilize technology as a central component. First, I develop critiques of Civic Tech as a dominant technocratic, neoliberal approach to democracy and bureaucracy and trace the history and intellectual genealogy of this specific movement. I then highlight civic technologies outside of the field of Civic Tech that have resulted in more redistributive and democratic outcomes, especially for Black people and other people of color. Finally, I define a research and design practice called Critical Community Technology Pedagogy that is demystificatory, multi-directional, transferable, and constructive, and draws upon examples from the Civic Lab for Environmental Action Research (CLEAR) in Newfoundland, Data DiscoTechs in Detroit, and the Center for Urban Pedagogy in New York City.

Abstract:
This study examined technocracy in Haiti in the Cold War era. It showed how Haitian and non-Haitian technicians navigated United States imperialism, Soviet ideology, and postcolonial nationalism to implement bold utopian visions in a country oppressed by poverty and dynastic authoritarianism. Throughout the mid-to-late twentieth century, technicians lavished Haiti with plans to improve the countryside, the city, the workplace, and the home. This study analyzed those plans and investigated the motivations behind them. Based on new evidence discovered in the private correspondence between Haitian, American, and Western European specialists, it questioned the assumption that technocracy was captivated by high-modernist ideology and US hegemony. It exposed how many technicians were inspired by a utopian desire to create a just society—one based not only on technical knowledge but also on humanist principles, such as liberty and equality. Guided by the utopian impulse, technicians occasionally disobeyed policymakers who wished to promote modernization and the capitalist world-economy. In many cases, however, they also upset the Haitian people, who believed technocracy was too exclusive. This study concluded that technicians were empowered by expertise but unable to build the utopias they envisioned because they were constantly at odds with both policymakers at the top and the people whose lives they planned.

Abstract:
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD
Most African states today are facing the serious challenge of socio-economic development. This is a problem not generated by the paucity of material and natural resources, but rather by challenges arising from mismanagement of these resources. Nigeria is in fact, a good example of a country in Africa facing socio-economic development challenges not as a result of lack of resources, but rather the mismanagement of abundant resources at its disposal. This mismanagement is associated with the culture of prebendal, clientelist and neo-patrimonial politics which have made it extremely difficult for technocrats and bureaucrats to contribute adequately to the development of the country. In fact, as will be demonstrated in this thesis, technocrats in Nigeria are not allowed to occupy sensitive economic development positions for a sustained period of time and are never the driving forces in the formulation of socio-economic development policies and initiatives. In this country bureaucrats and technocrats have not been a stable force for development- given the constant changes of these groups by the political leadership and the splitting of sensitive ministerial portfolios for political reasons. Instead, political offices are captured and used for the benefits of office holders and those of their associated factions, class and ethnic groups. This negatively affects the insulation of appointed technocrats and bureaucrats from vested political interests. Therefore, instead of appointing or employing technocrats and seasoned bureaucrats to occupy relevant positions, appointments and employments are done in order for people to share from what is commonly referred to as ‘national cake’ in the parlance of Nigerian politics. Central to the argument of this thesis is that one-party dominance and authoritarianism does not necessarily undermines techno-bureaucratic governance, as the cases of countries like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore in Asia as well as Botswana and South Africa in Africa suggest, but when such system is associated with politics of prebendalism, clientelism and neo-patrimonialism techno-bureaucratic governance becomes difficult and the achievement of state’s led development becomes more daunting. This work therefore investigates why attempts at promoting prebendalism, clientelism and neo-patrimonialism under Nigeria’s one-party dominant system undermines techno-bureaucratic governance. It also unravels how these have impacted negatively on socio-economic development of the country from 1999 to 2014. This study will contribute to the understanding of how the insulation of technocrats and bureaucrats from vested political interests can contribute to the development of the underdeveloped countries, using the developmental state argument as a basis of analysis.

Abstract:
In the 1990s, a legitimacy crisis afflicted international organizations embedded in the field of development. Factors underlying this crisis included falling foreign aid flows, the rise of competitors in the form of non-governmental organizations and the private sector, widespread and highly visible failures to achieve promised results, the diversion of aid funds into the treasuries of corrupt governments, and the growth of a vocal and virulent anti-globalization movement, to name but a few. In response to this crisis, this period saw the emergence of a reconceived poverty alleviation agenda that emphasized a multi-dimensional concept of poverty to be achieved through partnership-oriented and participative aid processes. International organizations increasingly sought to institutionalize and champion this new institution in order to improve their legitimacy and survival prospects. This thesis explores the processes by which executive sponsored initiatives sought to institutionalize the new poverty alleviation institution inside the World Bank and World Health Organization. Three points of inquiry build on one other to present a comparative analysis of institutionalization process within these international development organizations. The first examines the institutional logics, that is symbolic constructions and material practices, which have governed the field of development since the post-war period. By teasing out the interactions between the history and practices of development, two fundamental logics—technocracy and politics—are shown to interlace and constitute our knowledge of development at any given time. The second point of inquiry concerns the nature of the formal and informal organizational processes that introduced the poverty paradigm into development organizations. Drawing on fieldwork conducted in four country offices, the consequences of institutionalization for experienced institutional tensions, intra-organizational politics and organizational power are all examined and related to wider institutional dynamics. Using interpretive qualitative methods, the experience of institutionalization is compared across both the Bank and the WHO situated in two national contexts and a comparative assessment of organizational agency attempted. Finally, the thesis asks what is achieved by the institutionalization of a new poverty alleviation agenda. Institutionalization through managerial practices that are normatively linked to the political logic of development is critically examined and the implications for organizational survival and political logics discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis addresses the role of state policies of political and administrative decentralisation and the empowerment of urban local government. Decentralisation has been put forward in recent theory and policy in various regions of the world as a means of confronting the challenges of urban governance - that is of promoting economic growth and quality of life, while enhancing democracy, political freedom and social cohesion. The Chilean government is one of several in Latin American which have recently espoused the rhetoric of decentralisation, and which have implemented policies deemed to decentralise the power of the state. This thesis has three broad objectives. Firstly, to unravel the practical meanings of decentralisation, in terms of the essential elements of such a process, the conditions required for its implementation, and the potential benefits afforded. Secondly, to understand why this theme has emerged recently, and with such prominence, in the political and social sciences and in governmental discourse around the world. And thirdly, to ascertain in the light of our evaluations of the two previous points, whether recent policy reforms in the Republic of Chile correspond to a meaningful process of decentralisation, or whether the political rhetoric in this case is different from the reality. This thesis tackles these objectives by exploring new theoretical angles and empirical data. Firstly, it embraces a novel theoretical approach, outlining the modern relevance of the counterpoints which emerge between the writings of Alexis de Tocqueville and Max Weber, and setting the evaluation of recent developments in Chile within this theoretical framework.

Abstract:
O presente trabalho se propõe a analisar o contexto histórico e teórico, bem como as conseqüências, do ponto-de- vista democrático, do surgimento de um domínio do poder estatal através do domínio da técnica do direito. O foco de lugar e tempo é posto no Brasil, principalmente a partir da feitura e promulgação da Constituição Federal de 05.10.1988. Através desta análise histórico-teórica é mostrado como no Brasil, com atraso de algumas décadas em relação aos principais centros da Europa Continental, os juristas começam, desde 1988 mais intensamente, a tomar o controle do poder político-estatal, através do fechamento do direito em uma comunidade de intérpretes que domina a cada vez mais complexa técnica do direito. Para tanto, a constituição jurídica é simbolizada e hipostasiada em um fetichismo constitucional, que a dissocia de suas bases histórico-políticas e a torna uma espécie de totem inalcançável à sociedade. Com isso, muitas das decisões políticas mais importantes da República Federativa do Brasil são deslocadas da esfera pública política formal e informal para uma comunidade restrita de técnicos do direito, em torno, principalmente, da atividade jurisdicional dos tribunais - em especial, do Supremo Tribunal Federal. É assim que se forma a tecnocracia jurídica no Brasil.
This work aims at analyzing the theoretical and historical context, as well as the consequences, from a democratic point of view, of a new domination of the power of the state through the mastering of the law technique. The time and place focused are Brazil especially from the drafting and promulgation of the Constituição Federal of 1988. From this historical and theoretical analysis it is showed how in Brazil, with a few decades delay compared to continental Europe, jurists have begun, and since 1988 more strongly, to take control of the state´s political power, via closing the law into a interpreters expert community which dominates the every more complex law technique. In order to do that, the juridical constitution is symbolized and hypostatized into a constitutional fetishism, which dissociates itself form its historical and political foundations, and makes it a kind of unattainable totem to society. Because of that many of the most important political decisions are withdrawn from the formal and the informal public spheres into a restrict community of jurists preferably gathered around the jurisdictional activity of the courts - especially, around the Supremo Tribunal Federal. That is how the juridical technocracy develops in Brazil.

Abstract:
This article analyzes the technocracy emergence in social sector, through the study of the Ministry of Development and Social Inclusion case, created in 2011 in response to one of the essential themes of Ollanta Humala’s electoral campaign: social inclusion. This paper aims to determine which factors led to the establishment of a technocracy linked to social policy in a country where it has been traditionally linked to political usage and patronage. There are three factors that explain the positioning of a technocracy in this ministry addressed throughout the article. On one hand, there was the presence of a consensus about the need for a technical management of this sector in the search of generating legitimacy and autonomy. On the other hand, it happened to be a favorable political environment characterized by a wide political support from the government. Finally, the wide discretion of the technical team in the design of MIDIS and during formation of the first ministerial body of bureaucrats allowed the emergence of a technocratic institution. To this end, this article describes development of the stages of the creation of the institution, design, approval and implementation and shows a corroboration of the technocratic profile of the initial top management team of this ministry.
El presente artículo analiza el surgimiento de una tecnocracia en un sector social, a través del caso del Ministerio de Desarrollo e Inclusión Social, creado en el 2011 en respuesta a uno de los ejes centrales de la campaña electoral de Ollanta Humala: la inclusión social. Este texto busca determinar qué factores permitieron el establecimiento de una tecnocracia vinculada a la política social en un país donde esta ha estado tradicionalmente vinculada a un manejo político y clientelar. A lo largo del artículo, se abordan tres factores que explican el posicionamiento de una tecnocracia en este ministerio. Por un lado, existió un consenso sobre la necesidad del manejo técnico de este sector en la búsqueda de generar legitimidad y autonomía. Por otro lado, se dio un entorno político favorable caracterizado por un vasto respaldo político del gobierno. Por último, el amplio margen de decisión de los técnicos en el diseño del MIDIS y en la conformación del primer cuerpo ministerial permite el surgimiento de una institución de carácter tecnocrático. Para ello, esta investigación describe el desarrollo de las etapas de creación de esta institución, de diseño, aprobación e implementación, así como presenta una corroboración del perfil tecnocrático del equipo inicial de alta dirección de este ministerio.

Abstract:
This paper describes the use of electronic space in a fourth year undergraduate architectural design studio. It attempts to address the importance of developing a design process that is redefined by the use of computing, integrating concept and perception. This goal is set in the studio exercise, an international student design competition to design an addition to the school of architecture at the original Bauhaus/Weimar. The studio involved re-evaluating the Bauhaus principles of integrating the artist and the craftsman, but in contemporary or post-industrial terms. In 1989 the Wall came down. Seamless access of western telecommunications and media became greatly responsible for the crumbling of the rigid machine-age soviet technocracy; and with it, the former east German city of Weimar, home to the first Bauhaus, was once again a living part of architectural history. When the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture announced an international student competition to design a new addition to the school of architecture at the original Bauhaus/Weimar, we immediately decided that this should be an Electronic Bauhaus.

Abstract:
Architectural thinking and design process have always been dependent upon the representational medium and language of architecture – conventional drawings, diagramming, models, and iconography, to name a few. As a result of technological advancement (therefore possibilities) and socio-economic change, representation techniques have evolved, from conventional processes to ‘augment-ed reality’. Representation techniques and means in the production of architecture are critical to cover the conceptual range in which architecture can be created. This paper places this issue within the larger heterogeneous culture comprising technological, social, eco-nomic aspects and aims to unravel the conceptual underpinnings of the existing architectural thinking, representational culture in India. It examines ‘drawing’ as a convincing and disciplinary medium of language and representation and steers towards a ‘representation-al maxim’ between technology and value, discipline and consumption, tradition and modernity in the context of architectural thinking process in India.The forces of capitalism, globalization, consumer culture, celebrity and media culture, visual culture, technocracy have been instrumental in creating reality-based representational systems, which are reluctant to engage with the discipline of architecture and think beyond it. Steenson1 remarks about Augmented Reality “A novel form of spatial representation, which substitutes for the actual experience”. With access to augmented reality technology, the client no longer has to interpret the traditional plans, section and elevations, nor look into printed photomontage or virtual walkthroughs. He will be able to stand in his yet to come living room, go, on foot, from there to the kitchen, visit the bedrooms and, by doing so, get an ‘augmented’ experience of those spaces. Software is the agent of consumption, and it is only in the architectural process (thinking & delving), that this consumptive culture subsides, notwithstanding the fact that, for many architects and students, software and technology are steadily and consciously becoming ‘ends’ rather than ‘means’ in the design process.

Abstract:
A disturbing pattern is emerging on the corporate horizon. At first glance, the tech companies seem to have solutions to every problem. But is that right? What about the Covid-19 pandemic, looming global wars, terrorism and climate change, and other issues such as the growing impact of AI? Tech companies often seem to be operating outside the framework of ethics and managerial decision-making rules, with weak synchronisation between stakeholders, and regulatory systems are not being activated. Social accountabilities are being thrown to the wind, with global implications in our interconnected world. This essay discusses management, and whether tech companies need to be reined in, focusing on media sources reporting on problems of governance by technocrats.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper examines the origins of architectural programming in France in the years around 1968. It looks at the work of a team of young technocrats led by François Lombard, an engineer obsessed with a new system of design that would replace the architect as the primary author of the architectural project. It tells the story of how Lombard’s system emerged from reform movements in architectural education and practice, concluding with its deployment in the project for the Centre Pompidou. The programming group’s methods provided one of the ways by which architecture navigated the new computerized world of the late-1960s and early-1970s. They offer us an early picture of a new mode of collective, anonymous, and bureaucratic authorship that found creativity in surprising places and shaped one of the 20th century’s most iconic buildings long before the involvement of its architects.

Abstract:
A relação entre habitação e cidade é um dos temas mais caros à literatura que se dedicou à crítica do planejamento urbano como instrumento tecnocrático do Estado autoritário no Brasil. Originada entre as décadas de setenta e oitenta, seus autores estruturaram uma nova agenda, participativa, para a política urbana brasileira e atuaram como importantes agentes de mobilização social no processo de redemocratização na década de 1980. As mais importantes conquistas recentes da política urbana brasileira são, de certo modo,tributárias desta agenda.Este trabalho pretende realizar um balanço do tema à luz do estudo da produção habitacional na era Varguista e de sua contribuição no processo de urbanização brasileiro, reconhecendo os avanços do debate nas últimas décadas bem como as “pistas falsas” deixadas por ele. The relationship between housing and city is one of the most important to the literature devoted to criticism of urban planning. The main tool of the technocraticy and the authoritarian State in Brazil. Originated from the seventies and eighties, the authors that criticized the authoritarian State in Brazil have structured a new agenda for participatory urban policy. They served as important agents of social mobilization in the process of democratization in the 1980s. The recent achievements of the Brazilian urban policy are, in a way, related by this agenda. This work intends to conduct an evaluation of the this literature in light of the study of housing production in the Vargas era and its contribution to the process of urbanization in Brazil, re cognizing the advances of the debate in recent decades and the "false clues" left by him.

Abstract:
Slums are often associated with negativities in society including social vices, thievery and arm robbery due to the unsightly nature of the settlements, characterized with filth and insanitary conditions. However, slums provide accommodation for rural-urban migrants who are unable to afford the high cost of rent due to several factors including poor housing policy by government, high rental cost, financial difficulties, unemployment and poverty. This study aims at ascertaining the functional activities and survival strategies of slum dwellers in Ashaiman Municipality in Ghana. Ashaiman is a sprawling urban settlement, parts of which exhibit characteristics of a slum. It is a home to people from many ethnic groups within and outside Ghana who are all there to eke out a living. It also provides space for well organised and recognised professional, trade, ethnic, welfare and youth associations with formal structures and support systems to ensure good governance, compliance and reward systems. This study deployed a mixed method approach to collect quantitative and qualitative data from 490 respondents and 13 key informants in two slum communities; namely; Manmomo and Tulaku within Ashaiman Municipality. Interview schedule, interview guides and focus group discussion guides were used to collect data. Appropriate techniques were used to process and analyse the data. The results showed that the slum dwellers presented varied economic potentials as they contributed to the bustling 24/7 economy. The local economy was characterised by small and micro-scale activities in the informal sector. The municipal authority generated revenue through taxation in whatever form while the slum dwellers provided a strong voting block for politicians. However, the slums also provided the opacity needed for illegal activities. The slum residents operated in an under-served location with deficits in security, infrastructure, health and environmental sanitation. The survival strategies included social safety in terms of perception of historical and traditional ties, social acceptability, social network, security and business opportunities. The diverse characteristics, capacities, tenacity arising from survival experiences, adaptability, social capital, political clout in numbers, and youthful population contribute to make the slum communities in Ashaiman a place of survival. The main argument of the study is that slum dwellers demonstrate resourcefulness, thereby debunking their association with low levels of access to productive sources. It is therefore, recommended that the central government, local government, technocrats, the private sector and civil society groups should collaborate to enhance the potentials of the slum dwellers for local level development.

Full text
Abstract:
The 1991 Colombian Constitution strengthened the checks and balances of the political system by enhancing the role of Congress and the Constitutional Court, while somewhat limiting the powers of the President (who nonetheless remains extremely powerful even by Latin American standards). As a consequence of the larger number of relevant players, and the removal of barriers that restricted political participation, the political system has gained in terms of representation. However, political transaction costs have increased, making cooperation harder to achieve. The authors show that this has been typically the case in fiscal policy, where the use of rigid rules, the constitutionalization of some policies, and a reduction in legislative success rates-due to the presence of a more divided and fragmented Congress-have limited the adaptability and flexibility of policies. In contrast, in other areas of policy that were formally delegated to the technocracy, policies have been more adaptable to economic shocks, delivering better outcomes.
