Legal framework
All citizens have equal rights. Citizens vote to choose their government. REPRESENTATION.The government
represents the interest of all and has monopoly power to make public decisions.
SOVEREIGNTY.Each national government maintains formal relations with foreign governments and multilateral organizations.

Criminal prosecution and political networks
1985/7. Criminal prosecutor of the military juntas ( three former presidents) , 22 generals, admirals and other officers.
1988/91. 2 military rebellion cases. 1988/92. More than 100 big corruption cases,
involving private bankers and businesspersons, public officials and cabinet members. Big mistake.
What was the difference? Power networks.

The former minister of labor case
•The former minister of labor was appointed President of a state-owned company.
•We collect evidences of fraud against him for one year.
•Finally, the judge indicted him, resulting in a political scandal.
•President Menem fired him. “A man under criminal suspicions can not be a public official”
•A woman who had two indictments was appointed as a new President of the company.

Lessons from Montesinos case
The judicial approach. Does the elimination of the central node ensure the disarticulation of the network or can the network be regenerated?
The institutional approach. Can we change institutions by constructing buildings, improving technology, training people or changing procedures?
The international approach. Can we use the relation with formal institutions to control informal networks in power?

A 170-person refuse collection company working for the city of Salta, the 700,000 inhabitant state capital of the Salta Province in northern Argentina.
In part because of Salta´s economic difficulties, payments for the refuse collection contracts in question had been delayed. These delays in the
payment of over 2.0 million dollars which the municipality of Salta owed to company began to pose problems. Total annual sales amounted to roughly
2.2 million dollars and the outstanding debt to the company began to threaten its viability. payroll had been delayed for over two months.
the treasurer informed the company’s CEO that by order of the Mayor, 33% of the contract ($660,000) would have to be paid in bribes in order for any
payment to be made.
the manager takes into considerations: the major is from the same party of the governor and a close friend of the state prosecutor. The governor is the owner of the state newspaper. He also appointed and control all the criminal
judges.

WB data shows democratic representation is seriously distorted.Who represents the poor ?
This is not an occasional problem but a stable situation.
Formal institutions are crossed and controlled by a network of people who interchange favours and take the government for themselves.
In order to assure the possibility of controlling or distorting any public policy these networks maintain the public management at a very low level.

CHALLENGING ASSUMPTIONS
State Institutions represent citizens’ interest. Representation is not working.
The World Bank can develop economic programs and build institutions in developing countries without being involved in political issues. Commercial Sovereignty is gone.

THE TESTMADE TO 300 DIRECTORS OF U.S. AMERICAN COMPANIES IN
LATIN AMERICA
1. Who of you pays bribes to obtain business and to solve problems in the public sector?
2. Who believes that their competitors pay bribes to win business and to solve problems with the public sector?
3. Who has a strategy that would impede or make it difficult for other companies to obtain business because they paid bribes?
IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES THE GOVERNMENT IS UNABLE TO ESTABLISH AN EFFICIENT PUBLIC MARKET. THE PRIVATE SECTOR IS UNABLE TO THINK ABOUT IT.

Governance
The process and institutions by which authority in a country is exercised.
