Implementing e-procurement initiatives: impact of organisational learning across the public sector

This paper presents the results of a literature survey and proposes a model of organizational learning factors (OLFs) that are likely to impact the success of a technological innovation such as e-Procurement. Implementing e-Procurement initiatives requires the public sector agencies to have the organizational and management ability and flexibility to learn and share the lessons in regards to the new systems and technology and adjust themselves to new procurement practices and processes in a timely fashion. It is believed that this study will yield several insights and better understanding of the organizational learning factors that impact the level of user and supplier satisfaction leading to e-Procurement implementation success

Incorporación idónea de la responsabilidad administrativa de los representantes de las personas jurídicas ante las infracciones de la labor inspectiva cometidas contra la Ley General de Inspección del Trabajo-Ley No 28806

Dado que existe una alta tasa de actas de infracción contra la labor inspectiva, es pertinente determinar cuál sería un tratamiento legal idóneo para la incorporación de la responsabilidad administrativa de los representantes de las personas jurídicas ante las infracciones contra la labor inspectiva cometidas contra la Ley General de Inspección del Trabajo-Ley N° 28806. En ese sentido, el objetivo del presente artículo se centra en desarrollar primeramente de forma dogmática elementos necesarios para una modificación legislativa y construcción jurídica de responsabilidad de representantes de personas jurídicas, por ello, se deberá revisar tópicos tales como argumentación legislativa, el poder de policía en la actualidad y el trabajo como base del bienestar social, entre otros. Del mismo modo, se analizará partes de la teoría punitiva administrativa como el principio de culpabilidad y su significado. Así, con todo este estudio doctrinario se podrá proponer nuevos tipos infractores sancionadores en materia administrativa laboral, con lo cual se concluye que, en efecto, es válido introducir nuevas infracciones administrativas laborales con fin de materializar intereses tales como el bien común en el campo laboral. También se verificará que no es adecuado construir tipos infractores para gerentes y administradores sin considerar en ellos el elemento de la culpabilidad subjetiva, desligando además su responsabilidad autónoma de la propia persona jurídica.Given that there is a high rate of acts of infraction against the inspection work, it is pertinent to determine what would be an ideal legal treatment for the incorporation of the administrative responsibility of the representatives of the legal persons before the infractions against the inspection work committed against the General Law of Labor Inspection-Law No. 28806. In this sense, the objective of this article focuses on first dogmatically developing the necessary elements for a legislative modification and legal construction of the responsibility of representatives of legal persons, therefore, it should be reviewed topics such as legislative argumentation, police power today and work as the basis of social welfare, among others. In the same way, parts of the administrative punitive theory will be analyzed, such as the principle of guilt and its meaning. Thus, with all this doctrinal study, it will be possible to propose new types of penalizing offenders in labor administrative matters, which concludes that, in effect, it is valid to introduce new labor administrative offenses in order to materialize interests such as the common good in the labor field. . It will also be verified that it is not appropriate to build offending types for managers and administrators without considering the element of subjective guilt in them, also separating their autonomous responsibility from the legal person itself.Trabajo académic

Credit Rationing with Symmetric Information

Without denying the importance of asymmetric information, this article purports the view that credit rationing may also originate from a lender's inability to classify loan applicants in proper risk categories. This effect is particularly strong when novel technologies are involved. Furthermore, its relevance may increase with the importance assigned to internal rating systems by the Basel accord. This article presents a measure of the inadequacy of a lender's classification criteria to the qualitative features of prospective borrowers. Even without information asymmetries, credit rationing may occur if this quantity reaches too high a value. Furthermore, some general principles are outlined, that may be used by lenders in order to change their classification criteria

Commuting through La Araucania (Chile). An analysis of the daily mobility practices of university students with access to free education

The present paper analyzes commuting by university students in the Araucania Region who had access to free education in 2016. The study subjects were restricted to students who did not live in Temuco, the capital of the region, but who studied there and therefore needed to commute from their homes to the city. The requirements to qualify for free education are as follows: the students must belong to the lowest tenth of the population by socio-economic measures and they must be enrolled in an undergraduate programme requiring personal attendance - day-time or night-school - offered by eligible institutions (Mineduc, 2015). The object of the study was to analyze the conditions and experiences of the students in their daily commute to the university, considering unnoticed aspects that are not included in the promotion of inclusive educational policies by the introduction of free education. These aspects are supported by the social differences that affect access to higher education based on the requirement for daily mobility
