    Corrupción como problema de acción colectiva: Hacia un enfoque más ajustado para pensar la reforma institucional en América Latina
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2018) Philipps Zeballos, Andy
    I understand, as Kafka does, that the situation of the bureaucracy of the early twentieth century in Europe in 'The trial’, that corruption has as one of its roots the lack of a sense of community. In this article I propose to overcome the rational choice approach. That way I can combine it with one (that) can understand corruption as collective action. That is why I reflect on the next four key questions to understand this approach: A) what is a collective action problem? this detaches that high levels of trust are significantly related with lower levels of corruption. B) When can we talk about societies where corruption is more the norm than an exception? this deduces that confidence is at stake, specially, in institutions. And c) in which degree the environment determines human behavior in relation with social psychology? Thus, this new paradigm addresses institutions of public administration in the middle of anti-corruption policies and provides us of clues about what characteristics are the ones that matter enough to get more confidence, more cooperation and, finally, less corruption in a state.

    La reforma del servicio civil en el Estado peruano: análisis de los factores que explican los avances de un proceso que sigue constituyendo un desafío
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2018) Torres Balcázar, Víctor José
    Civil service policy has fulfilled five years of effective implementation and has data that evidence its progress until the present. Precisely, this article seeks to address the phase of implementation of said public policy, the process of transit to La Ley SERVIR regime´s, trying to provide an approximation of the results that would have throw this new attempt to start a reform in the human resources of the Peruvian State following the case of the nineteen ministries.The analysis will have as its central core twelve grouped variables in three dimensions: organizational characteristics of the ministry, normativity characteristics and tools of transit, and leadership in the ministry´s transit process. Thus, considering said variables, it will be evident that the degree of progress of the ministries manage to be explained in an important way by a number of people that provide their services, the time that the ministry takes in the process of transit, the complexity perception that one has about the tools of transit, the hierarchical position of whoever is the responsible for the transit process.The results of the investigation invite people interested in reform processes to make a reflection about the complexity of the implementation process, The alerts, that the implementation about the necessity of adjustment applications in design, launch and the relevance (of the actors involved in the execution) takes action as long as said policy is legitimate and visible. Said aspects are important for the reform, being that five years have passed since the publication of the first version with the steps that should guide the transit of public entities to the civil service regime and, until the present, only just one entity from the state has managed to conclude said  process.
