reordering, agencies and rights in Andalusia


Anda mounted a good mess in Andalusia account Decree Law 5 / 2010 the Andalusian government approved last July on Reorganization of the Public Sector.

The public sector is in the spotlight, the times of crisis we tighten and governments take urgent action to adjust their accounts.

We agree, or disagree with what is happening in Andalusia there are several things to recognize this government. First, has taken the bull by the horns and has a strong commitment to rearrange the Andalusian public sector "seeks not only to further rationalization of expenditures, but also aims to increase efficiency in providing services to citizens and citizens of Andalusia ". Thing other levels of power has not been done.

Second, a formula organizational commitment, public agencies that have argued repeatedly in this blog as a good opportunity to provide greater public action flexibility and efficiency in carrying out its work. The DL makes a distinction between public agencies timely business, serving in quasi-markets and are governed by private law and special public agencies exercise authority and are governed by administrative law or private law as appropriate.

The problem comes from the integration of staff into new structures and change that can make progress. Both the DL as agreement with the unions after majority gives options for voluntary integration especially civil servants, which in any case retain its status - Although in the case of public agencies will have to laboralizar business. Given that it is in a particular leave of absence (to provide services in the Andalusian public sector) and that the merit counted for administrative history integration conditions seem quite reasonable.

The greatest controversy arises from the integration of the workforce as a public employee of the Board. Perhaps there is staff in place "a finger" that is going to benefit from very favorable conditions without access to the usual selection system to public employment. Will have to see if it's true and what kind of staff we speaking. But what is undeniable is that from a management point of view of administrative and respect for workers' rights through negotiations with the most representative OOSS the process is successful. The rejection of certain practices can not justify opposition to a measure of reordering as complex as necessary.

Administration and Social Networks: my bet for 2011


The other day I was reading the document Predictions for 2011 on social networks Administration and published by the Generalitat de Catalunya. It some experts in communication, technology, social innovation, etc. give their opinion on what trends will be next year.

I congratulate each of them for the contributions made but I would like to highlight some of them especially in the view of Simon Collister is likely to disappear funding opportunities for innovations (....) be the great challenge for the government to step up and fund public services using web 2.0 technology . Roc Fages indicates that the Administration should know how to choose wisely where to aim their bets 2.0, (...) being the best bet the inner . Tona Pou not very optimistic as regards the progress of social networks while Dolors Reig indicates that opens a contradictory period, with some authorities aware of the importance of coexisting with other network that deny their seriously. Finally, to Isabel Troytiño first thing to ask is what does the Administration do regarding social networks.

I can not agree more with Elizabeth. Although the technology trend is unstoppable, begin to look past the early stages of noise and chaos that often accompany any process of adopting new innovations and the outlook has to be clarified .

In that sense I think the big challenge for public authorities on social media is to be able to determine how the social web tools can and can not support a strategic approach previously established, more innovation in areas such as internal or open government communication in the same production of public value (services, regulation, authority, etc.).. To do this, must first have a strategy in some of these fields, and second, we must analyze where we can provide this support, third, to reflect whether it will be necessary or not, its benefits and drawbacks, and fourth sub-strategy to define a social network deployment incardinated into the main strategy.

Do these conditions exist in 2011? I think there are elements to be pessimistic, at least for next year. First, because there are elections in most of the English public authorities where the application of these tools is easier (CCAA and Local Bodies). This will not be until September launch new teams of people that are planning new strategies. Second, because in a context where the budget constraint is first of the agenda, approaches which can fit these issues tend to park with more priority. If we look at success stories ( Basque, Catalan ) were launched at the beginning of term and in different circumstances.

why I tend to think short term (2011) initiatives will be minimal budget punctual actions implemented by domestic entrepreneurs in order to provide rapid technological solutions to some of the issues that many colleagues point (internal communication, financing, joint management of knowledge).

Perhaps
from 2012 can flourish new success stories more substance. Ouch next year we'll see.

Fun Titles For Birthday Party

ETB UFOs: AN EXAMPLE OF BOOK

Me has attracted attention to the entry titled " UFOs in Santa Monica," the blog "Lying out there" . When you see the videos, it is true that the images are striking: two bright objects in the evening sky rapidly changing direction. Fortunately, today virtually all phones incorporating cameras and several people "trigger happy" could record the scene.

I must admit that I thought of two fighters maneuvering, but the explanation was much simpler. The author of the article, without leaving home and using Google Street View derived the exact area that flew those lights, and even the altitude, and launched the hypothesis that it had tried to jumpers or flares. Finally a few days ago the protagonists themselves corroborate his theory, providing even the subjective view video if there was any doubt to the (in these cases) magufos skeptical. You have the whole story here . The original source is Contrail Science.

a pity that in the eighties would not have these means to dismantle much history jam ...

St. Dalfour Side Effect

10 tips for a successful state strategy


few years ago two prominent British thinkers in the field of public administration reform, Osborne and Gaebler, tried to put some of the pathologies of public organizations claiming Professionals Deliver services and bureaucracies, solves problems Communities [bureaucracies provide professional and community services while solving the problems]. Obviously we do not

faced with a dogma and therefore the debate is open. But in my view such a sentence reveals the shortcomings of the bureaucratic model of administration has not been solved: that an excessive focus on the ways - procedures-end fund-shifting to the real social problem solving .

with the times and the increasing difficulties faced Administration must adopt an alternative approach, thinking and acting in a strategic sense, especially in prestacióni service organizations. This approach implies guide public action to solve social problems, equipped with clear objectives under the assigning and political mandate to develop a series of actions to achieve this, measuring and correcting if necessary .

involves change and talking about human structures such as the Administration this change is not easy. Must manage. For the success of this process could establish a decalogue based on the following aspects:

1. Leadership: one hand understood as interpersonal aspects of motivation and guidance, emotional management of change. For another, as the institutionalization of professional management function capable of setting a vision, build trust through a consistent attitude and willing to manage gaining political support environment / social strategy. Finally, understood as a distributed leadership that "empowering", create an enabling environment and act as a receiver / diffusion of ideas.

2. Involvement of professionals save continued suspicion between the administrative apparatus and the ruling class by launching a process of building trust by engaging people in the inner boiling debate and solving strategic uncertainties.

3. ecosystem adaptation: to raise public strategies always consistent with the historical, social and cultural life of society involved.

4. Results oriented, but what eye, that are aligned with the values \u200b\u200band social needs, providing them permanently visible in relation to their objectives and consistent with the principles and values \u200b\u200bset.

5. Communication and training: to achieve ownership through motivation.

6. Global vision, local implementation: strategic thinking demand a comprehensive and complete, but overall it should not prevent the concrete. It must always specify objectives, actions and accountable.

7. Strategy "usefully" documented: the written form mistrust if not greased leadership but it serves to promote participatory processes and a conceptual framework in which to locate.

8. Balanced and sustainable development: it forward, little by little, but progress. It's better than not.

9. Continuous Learning: understand the change as progress. Collective (organizational) and individual.

10. "Timing" of the process: the strategy is always long term, but the success lies in how to go modulating time with decisions and situations that may occur.

Choori Dar Pajama Cutting

About Boes extraordinary and privatization


Within the general context of extraordinary measures, unpublished Gazettes Publications and reform-horse killed last Friday saw the light of a new decree-law this time on actions in the fiscal, labor and investment liberalization to promote and job creation.

concern is the aftertaste that is taking the government to use the decree-law and several measures drawer disaster, and that this legal instrument is designed for those exceptional cases that warrant urgent decisions.

Comment on this is not the subject of this blog. If it is, however, discuss the various reforms that decree sets up in the field of public sector. And there are several.

Two of them are important legal changes in the field of airport management and public play. Because this is exactly what the decree speaks and not the (announced) privatization, which will take place as soon as these changes occur (although it opens the door as this new business structure that provides the objective permmite to the inflow of private capital, while maintaining in every case state the nature of society).

is therefore necessary to define these two distinct areas: change of status and privatization . Regarding the first to say that the state corporatisation of public entities and LAE AENA seems quite reasonable if it will help increase efficiency, autonomy and flexibility in management, which is very likely that it happens. Upgrade will also allow the operation of both services in a demanding context of demand (airport) and major technological changes (set).

Regarding privatization things change. We are talking about pure and simple privatization (sale of equity shareholding public private investors) while it is true that the state will maintain majority control of both companies. Privatizing ideology hit me like a bug, too (much worse) do in the rush to plug budget holes, now that's bread for today, hunger tomorrow.

Assuming that political processes are complex and marked by certain circumstances, privatization (in my opinion) may have some effect, but from a rational perspective, and having reviewed various aspects. For example:

  1. Nature of goods and services provided by the entity to privatize : if more or less essential, more or less strategic, more or less has a social dimension.

  2. market conditions served by the entity to privatize: if it is a real free market with strong private players to compete freely, or if instead it will privatize a public monopoly into private monopolies. If a market is working properly or if there distortions which would require a public presence that balance.

  3. the market really makes an improvement in the service of citizens : it is assumed in many cases it gives better service private than public. There are cases like that, but not in others. Are those public organizations with centuries of history whose only fault was that simply have not had good wicker to make the pot (legal framework, budget, etc..) and thus their service has deteriorated.

  4. Conditions to ensure compliance with the obligations of public service by the privatized entity: private investors will be interested in the profitable, but what about the deficit segment?

  5. a buyer and the price offered is adequate : not always the case, there may be buyers and market conditions do not allow a good sale. Or simply do not have buyers who take the least good of the organization privatize public.

  6. The entity is a burden on public coffers : does not make sense to privatize what works well and gives a lot of money to government coffers. Nor do with organizations which are not the crown jewels, they provide a public service is valued by citizens at a reasonable cost. However, heavily loss-making and inefficient institutions can be studied for privatization.

  7. take into account the social dimension : the public sector is a sister of quality but like it or not a source of employment for many families and help maintain ocial and territorial cohesion. It is necessary to assess this appearance and define commitments especially with the potential private buyer in this regard.

AENA and Lotteries Do they meet these conditions? Partially. Airports are basic and strategic infrastructure for a country. Some very greedy for private investment, which can provide an interesting know-how. But it is also a network deep deficit, fattened by territorial decisions are not always rational, but with a political aspect to be considered. Therefore a partial privatization and a form of decentralized management and unique to each airport may have some meaning. Not so the public game, not being an essential commodity is a public monopoly which provides billions of euros of profits to the coffers. Moreover, state support ensures proper development of the game and prevent fraud, not to mention the significant sales network that supports it and its economic and social tradition. That is, a jewel that will certainly fatten the box will be a short but significant structural decline of public resources in the medium and long term.

Crisis public sector reforms



Club Under the Public Management at ESADE in Madrid we launched last year the crisis cycle and public sector round table The state's role in the economy: a cambioi course? . We wondered then if, after the liberal revolution of the 90's and first decade of the new century, the financial crisis posed a return to Keynesianism and a greater role of the public in the economy.

After a year, on Monday retomábamos the cycle with a completely different picture. A good idea of \u200b\u200bsome members of the Club will add the sauce a very recommendable article entitled Francisco Longo utility Bubble and put on the table well-known personalities from the public, business and financial journalism as Elvira Rodriguez, Miguel Antonio Carmona and Miguel Angel Noceda . All this with a suggestive title: "And now ... what and how to finance public sector?" .


Professor Longo hostilities broke out with a brief but juicy speech in which he added a new derivative of the current crisis: the crisis in state-society relationship and the need to make an effort to preserve basic features of our model . This would require - in his opinion, a redefinition of the redistribution scheme, the catalog of public services and the universality of them. In short, a reform of the patterns of governance and public administration which was previously considered difficult if it is very important today.


All agreed that the crux of the matter was to determine what should be the ideal size is how much the public provided with means, what the organizational structure and finally, what funding schemes . Taking into account that a large share of public expenditure is managed by the CCAA and that 65% of the expenditure on the welfare state and 14% infraestraestructuras. In this sense for Elvira Rodríguez effort has making the expenditure side, public sector competitive structure, separating the cyclical than structural measures in the short, medium and long term and implement policies for productive expenditure (eliminating subsidies). If you do not decide where to put the line, others will do for us. Antonio Miguel Carmona the State has an important role in the economy and a decisive factor redistribution. Because it brings balance is an improvement over what can not provide the private sector. The important thing is not so much questioning and cut the deficit but to analyze the nature, seasonality and decide on the opportunity costs of financing public activity or tax debt. In that sense, any action on public expenditure should not be cut for no reason but to reduce items that allow me to do things to stimulate productive investment and employment.

Miguel Angel Noceda incited the debate by tabling a controversial issue: Less public sector through privatization, yes or no? Elvira Rodriguez For the key issue is to define what is meant by "privatization" in the case of private provision of public services (wroth converted), public-private partnerships to achieve greater effectiveness and efficiency, yes. In this case, in his opinion, there should be no ideological bias. Addition was shocked that it has increased the mass of structural spending cyclical income support (construction). According to Antonio Miguel Carmona important thing is to have a capable State (muscular) and efficient enough, not as the Irish which has collapsed to a minimal state. And wondered what kind of privatization, in the sense that there is only a facade to put in the hands of groups of para-or pseudo private interest (savings banks), which came to be major public corporations. Furthermore, privatization is not always easy: there must be a good buyer and parts of public service deficit just want them.

Transparency outstanding low


few weeks ago published the ranking on Transparency CCAA Transparency International Spain. The results indicate that Andalusia, Galicia and La Rioja yield the highest score while Cantabria, Valencia, Baleares and the Basque Country are in the queue.

I must say that the fact itself to evaluate and make it an independent entity is positive. Welcome everything is to have references. Now we need to study the methodology used to perform a more precise analysis and draw conclusions.

first conclusion addresses the concept of transparency as a tool of struggle against corruption, as that characteristic of a good citizen-oriented government. In this sense, gain weight indicators related to the economic-financial, procurement or management control of the territory to the relationship with citizens.

Second conclusion: the system of evaluation is improved. Allow to be evaluated themselves to do so themselves based on an initial assessment of the independent entity of subjectivity involves a not inconsiderable.

Third conclusion: using only the criterion of "Web Publishing" to assign scores or not. At this point seems to be beyond the simple web publishing as a criterion of transparency in the sense of minimizing corruption. For example, you can publish the results of the award of a contest (adjucatarios and vendors), but that does not mean that the process would not have existed irregularities.

Fourth Conclusion: in my view that the indicators of transparency put the bar at a low level and somewhat unfocused. Is not this very significant for these purposes to be published biographical details of elected officials, budget laws, agreements and bills, etc. ?

Fifth and final conclusion, what is more important? Does the publication (infoxication) or the establishment of management systems to ensure, based on good practice and with the tools necessary, proper accountability?

How Do I Open Moped Seat

Three strategic lines to streamline the administration


Jordi Sevilla few weeks ago on his blog wrote an excellent article entitled State Entropy I encourage you to read. Sevilla is an authoritative opinion on these issues, not only because it was one of the ministers most widely held in bringing the public agenda initiatives deployed in the field of Administration but she knows well the "average" from different positions in his career.


Basically the idea is that at times government deficit occupy almost the whole scene less about size - it is not the problem, and more about how we can get the most juice every dollar spent improving public efficiency and effectiveness . And it proposes three strategic lines to dump the efforts:
  1. ICT in the administration.

  2. The evaluation of public policies. Management


people agree with him and who read this blog often you will have it checked. In addition there are already leading the State authorities are working on that line (I encourage you to throw a glance at Public Innovation Plan Euskadi).

ICT Administration

Mount eGovernment is not easy and has great merit human effort and budget that has been deployed in recent years. But there are several derived in the framework of this concept provides powerful and irreversible technology.

  • Scanning services: I often wonder if we are reinventing the circle by an Administration sometimes even more complicated than the face. I dare not even think that we are creating another monster and the enormous amount of energy in the effort to digitize is wasting

  • Changes in public action in relation to citizenship and inter-administrative: to occur are vital political (obstacle is much higher). Thus is scanned much but little opens.

Evaluation of public policies

A key concept in public management that distinguishes social impact (outcomes) of activity ("outputs"). Administrations generate activity but that activity does not always translate into social change. Something similar happens with the evaluation of public policy at the state level. The AEVAL was created and works with a team of about few hundred civil servants, basically the same as when I was a general direction of the MAP. Produce evaluation reports, recommendations, officials work hard and well, the Council of Ministers assigned jobs every year. Produce activity, but no impact. His work is not really change course if a policy is not going well, it achieves its effects (ineffective) and is not doing well at a reasonable cost (inefficient). Assessment is necessary to rethink the policy on top of the agenda and more with which it is falling. Management

Many people say (including I) that EBEP development of ambitious and appropriate for the challenges facing our authorities need money and political courage to take it forward . So either the development is in the drawer or laws are drawn almost do not change anything. Yesterday the vice president launched a boat -soon the idea that part of the salaries of public employees is connected with productivity. This is confusing so: public employees from a charge-off level and a level called "productivity" (monthly / quarterly) although this was not linked to any assessment. In addition, some public organizations such amounts (which in practice are fixed) joined them (good times) an amount of "incentives" that ended up becoming part of the salary fixed by the involvement of an objective measure of an outcome. And is that here is the crux of the matter: how to set goals and measure the performance of a public employee as the levels . The very nature of public value created by the Administrations (diffuse and intangible in many cases) makes it difficult and may eventually become dependent on a subjective assessment of affinity groups. "Universal" see it complicated for certain positions (especially those relating to management) possible and desirable.

Ftse 250 Market Cap Order

When the MAP became MPA


It has been several weeks since the last Cabinet reshuffle occurred. Time enough for that, beyond the headlines, to consolidate the changes and exit published in the Official Gazette on DR for approving the new organic structure of ministerial departments.

Timing
therefore able to make some considerations:

1. It is confirmed that the reduction is nominal ministerial real.

gestures in politics are important; and now a reduction in the number of ministries, it probably is. But make no mistake: the effects on public spending, negligible. The potential savings resulting from the reduction of two ministries (Housing and Equal) almost offset the additional costs generated (transfers-if-, changes in communications, corporate portals, letterheads, etc.). This saving is low if we consider that the ministries removed are replaced by secretaries of state, that the Secretary (in the case of accommodation) become general secretariats, which amount to some general secretaries of state ministries (Employment) that the persons bodies removed or are senior officials or politicians (including consultants) relocated and all other personnel are public employees (could not be otherwise) continues in office.

2. Becomes the MAP, but with another name.

names are usually not neutral in this case either. The former Ministry of Public Administration becomes Ministry of Territorial Policy and Public Administration. Ie territorial policy first and then the Administration. A jug of cold water, but will anyone surprised? The passage of the entire public to the first and vice was disappointing. Now more of the same. The reform policy of the Administration remains in the drawer.

3. New details on the exception in the general directions.

jurisprudence requires more precise when exceptional appointment of staff in certain general directions . We bundled with the same subject from the ages of ages: the reserve to public officials in leadership positions in the AGE. An absurd mechanism (less and less sense) that allows some (politicians) want to negotiate how and when to return favors several, and others (senior officials of certain bodies) to be guaranteed by law certain positions of power. An example is reading the DR: the justification for the exception is impeccable and I agree that there are objective conditions that require the provision of such open DG professionals of any kind, not necessarily of the administrative bodies. Now, they will appoint professional criteria or try to put the touches? On the other hand, is truly the technicians of the higher bodies have a professional profile according to these posts? Superb technical but certainly in their field, not the RD needs expressed clearly.

Cry Make Face And Nose Red

USACH by Nono Hidalgo


Celebration is a work that challenges the official history of Chile, the books of history, questioning the linearity of the facts, chronology, and proposes a suspension of linear time, to tell our history of Chile.
The central motif of the play is a profound reflection on the subject of the bicentennial of Chile and for that, "Celebration" takes sides with workers, residents and students who made possible the emergence of popular movements.
The statement that there is an urgent assembly to rewrite the history of Chile, to have something to celebrate. Text is
Cristian Aravena, actor and playwright graduated from the Department of Theatre at the University Chile and the company's Public Theater. Directed by Patricia
Artés, Bachelor of Arts degree from Universidad Arcis and School Performance Theatre Fernando Gonzalez.
"Celebration" is an invitation to watch the Bicentennial celebrations from the perspective of the forgotten, those who according to the work they have every right to ask "what are we to celebrate?". During the construction
are many interesting questions such as who built this country? pointing out the injustices experienced and silenced by official history.
The Staging is specified as a collage that weaves together specific events and points of view fiction. Stage games are simple, popular humor, along with several versions of the mischief of the Chilean
An interesting aspect is that the theatricality of "Celebration" is constructed based on non-theatrical material. There are many texts cited in the history of chile and essays and sociological studies, which in this case are placed at the service of theater.
For example with the speech "Rich and Poor" of the notorious political leader Luis Emilio Recabarren, written in 1910 about the Centennial Celebrations of the Republic of Chile.
are reported in various events in the history of Chile to allow the work to take a note of complaint about killings, about building a Chile advantage of workers and going to take their rights.
Using various school boards, the work makes a metaphor about educating the public, showing their own view of the history of Chile, arguing with hard data, as is the formula of a theoretical essay.
could talk about that in this work is staged theatrics of education.
worth noting the irony that manage to capture the scene in Greater Santiago. A large company's true about the concentration of power.
At times too explanatory, actors and actresses tenths contrast, the clowns and live cueca, with speeches from the conclusion Centennial. But very redeemable
are the questions isntalan on stage as: we will all live in the same country? What is Homeland, if nothing around you is yours?
The book is a summary of the struggle that Chile has had in 200 years to win their freedom in various areas: freedom from foreign domination of imperialist domination and Chileans themselves who oppress the poorest
Public Theatre Company concludes that there is a single story, so there is not the same country. And topped with your premise "is urgent rewrite history, to have something to celebrate," which no longer makes sense.

Were Can I Find Oxygenating Toothpaste

Crisis and State Reform: voltage productive or unproductive?



Last week I attended the conference manager Echebarría Koldo Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) delivered at ESADE and echoed by some media .



then transcribe the notes I took during the same to share them with you. Obviously reflect their views, not mine.



Crisis, "cyclical or structural?

What seems clear is that accelerating trends, eg GDP moving to emerging countries.

  1. We face a long process of debt reduction, with the added difficulty that depends greatly accelerate "expectations" that are not good.

  2. has been a failure in some policies (eg heating of the housing sector) and a failure to articulate the relationship between state and market.

  3. There is a lack of global governance, the G20 is a timid step forward, but do not expect great results from him by nature.

  4. fiscal constraints that are devoted developed in Spain is complicated by the impact of health and pension.

  5. Reforms should be oriented to grow.

  6. Markets are more concerned with the quality (reliability) of "politics" in countries where the functioning of their institutions.
What is our business public in this context?
  1. We have a medium sized public sector-low (data provided in this regard, especially those comparing% of public employees labor force or total population).

  2. The% of spending in Chapter I on public expenditure is the highest in the OECD, ie, public salaries (average) in Spain are relatively high (later clarified that this result came from the impact of the civil half numbers was In connection with high salaries to other countries.

  3. hours agreed in agreements and working arrangements have been significantly reduced in recent years ..

  4. addition, according to World Bank studies (09) have a lower administrative effectiveness than would be expected by our level of wealth.

  5. Other diseases (according to Government at a Glace , 09 OECD) in terms of people, little delegation (flexibility), management closed and reinforced (usually with access to top career), without institutionalizing professional leadership role.

  6. His conclusion: Not a problem the size of our public sector, but their productivity, efficiency and management structures.
reform models


a) Reform via adjustment (non-reform). Different possibilities:

  • "package" of measures for costs and / or income (which is made in Spain) is the most primary. It is shown that a 1% reduction in expenditure on GDP implies a reduction of 0.5% growth. Settings

  • selective about spending less efficient (which is done in UK) is more complex politically because the choice of those items to cut is subject to a government strategy. Freeze

  • sustained wear items and purchasing power of families (eg inflation).
problems: weak state capacity, discourages the public and undermines the professional.

b) Reform "efficiency":


  • deepen fiscal governance. Set

  • regulatory limits on spending.

  • establish independent bodies of budgetary control. Settings

  • expense in terms of policy outcomes.
Problem: The usual rules establishing its cyclical low adaptive capacity.


c) Market Reform:

  • partially privatized, in the strict sense of selling public assets.

  • Establish copayments (increase revenues, and streamlining the application)


Problem: the difficulty of defining clearly the role of the state to transfer some of its functions to the market and the risk of replacing public monopolies monopolies / oligopolies

private

d) Reform of public sector internal workings:

  • Agencialización: standardize results, resource allocation, accountability. Institutionalization

  • professional public address.


coalitions necessary actors



Faced with the ongoing confrontation between the coalition that is making the adjustment (governments, markets, tax bureaucrats-actors-part global opinion makers) and opposing to it (public-voters-professional users, some creators of User Input) claimed as necessary to cross that brings together coalition governments, fiscal bureaucrats on one side with a citizen-user-voters more "empowered" by one of chief and sub-coalitions public professionals who want a change and believe this is possible.

I Cant Remove The Back Of My Stud Earing

Celebration: A History revisited

14 October 2010

In all corners of this country has been thought of as the best way to celebrate the long awaited bicentennial of Chile. 200 years are free of English colonial years of their own construction country. This is the reflection that the Public Theatre brings to the stage with his latest production "Celebration", look for these same 200 years, but from a more marginal and criticism, which invites a reinterpretation of our history.

Chile's Bicentennial think, is the task of "Celebration", directed by Patricia Artés assembly and written jointly by the Public Theater in conjunction with Cristian Aravena. The work presents the history of Chile nonlinear untold, those events were decided silence or directly modified to protect the powerful, as well as to attribute popular power groups or groups of indigenous power, characteristics of barbarism and terrorism, thus building a reductionist narrative, full of lies and abuse.

remarkable success in staging is the time when a clock stops running for a minute and players names written on the boards of thousands of deaths, occurred at different slaughter in these 200 years.

Moreover, in another scene we see three young men playing "Metropolis or great Capital", which through the dialogues reflect about capitalism, the history of the populations of Chile and economic inequality that exists between life on the flag or Las Condes.

Using a simple, but symbolic scenic resource such as bulletin boards (chalk) becomes clearly significant in each of the scenes. A history taught us straight through them and we are also we can rewrite it. They are drawn images that complement the scenery, inviting possible to imagine many historical moments in our country.

Celebration, is a work of mostly based on improvisation and the opinions of their creators. Explore the style of Brecht, using it as a teaching tool, intends to open a debate, dialogue with the public confronted with this other story, one that is not found in books of Frias Valenzuela and many others who have not taken over the painful episodes of Chile.

Our Bodies in the Bicentennial

Interview by Brisa MP for Cultural Scanner ....

BODIES IN THE BICENTENNIAL

BODIES IN THE BICENTENNIAL

Interview with Patricia Artes, director of the recently released book "Celebration." Public Theatre Company.

By: BRISA MP

How could we speak of a body or bodies politic in your work "Celebration"?

could speak of a political body in the work CELEBRATION, as we understand it as a social body which is a group that operates as unique. However, this political body social, collective, is composed of various bodies that turn up each one individually but operated on a network that is expressed in a single body. These bodies belong this unique body, perceive themselves in the historical violence of capitalist development in our country. Violence that is concretely manifested in repression, death, hunger, poverty, etc. Violence that breaks the individual body and therefore the social body. In this regard we can name the final scene, where a "living statue" with a sign saying "I muevopor $ 100, you must modify your body as a woman puts coins one after another. "The statue must take different positions while the actor says the final speech. This scene contains in the body political discourse of the work, their actions happen from their relationship with money and this in critical reflection tension generated in this work, "street performer" with respect to our concept of homeland and history.

The book suggests a body exiled from their homeland, "Deque way the concept of" homeland "is installed in the play?

Reflection on the concept of homeland is installed from the question "What is Homeland?. From this idea that country would let go of belonging to an alleged leak of territoriality, of what we understand as a state, of what we call by the Government, would be a recognition of equal membership. CONCLUSION In this sense hypothesized belonging to a place states, that is, Homeland be established as a place without boundaries, which is defined by social and political inhabit the bodies in a context. In these terms, the work invites the challenge to settle on a single country, "the homeland of all the Chileans" as place that "combines" depoliticized perspective that denies the ethnic and class differences, becoming in a "one" without contradiction.

About historiography ... the beginning of the work reflection appears to quote Walter Benjamin "The history of the oppressors is ongoing, while those of the oppressed is made of discontinuity ", then in one scene a woman speaks of her disappearance generic History written political processes of Chile, as a kind of vindication. Tell us about it and how we could relate these two scenes.

critical reflection that is installed in the work concerning historical onstruction lac is about asking who writes history? What counts in this story? ... The problem is that history is written by the victors that project a step towards a future course denying any event that escapes from the line, denying political processes of the labor movement. These processes are falling as a network of actions on this great story line, producing just HISTORY. In this sense omitted from the official story is a constant practice. This denial of the oppressed in the official story has its own failure, in this case the work is stated, the denial of women in the historical construction of the popular movement. We found some studies that materializes a historical perspective of women, but apparently their greater participation is to be the backdrop for men. More than one claim, this gesture highlights a historical debt. As indeed is reflected in other social sectors in our country which are not addressed by the work.

Celebration is a work, without doubt, critical part of the Bicentennial of Chile. How important do you think is the work inthis context?

The importance of the work exists in this context bicentenarista CELEBRATION lies mainly in setting up a critical reflection on our historical evolution demonstrate our dissatisfaction with these 200 years of injustice, inequality, massacres and abuses that have and have had to endure that and we just have built this country. In this context the importance lie in touch, clarify, inform and reaffirm our Republic criticism from a theatrical perspective.

What do you think of the concept "Chilean cultural identity" and how it operates laobra in this regard?

The problem of identity is complex and on our Chile. Complex if we think that our cultural traits consistently appear as hybrids, where the cultural intertextuality is a feature already own. In this sense I think it is more appropriate to speak of cultural identities. Celebration time is here to reaffirm an identity (in other identities). An identity that is manifested in the discursive and representational resources. An identity that appeals to a class, your imagination, and therefore the representation of that subjectivity.

What do you expect the public Celebrating the work?

hope, first, that the audience likes the play, have fun and to reflect, from our views about the development of our history and the hidden or blatant intervention of her textual representations, media and cultural. We understand that public reactions to deal with the work depends on their political place, their own perception of the history of Chile (which could come encontradicción or not) and why not speak, instead of class. We do not expect to convert the reactionary, but rather to awaken the revolutionary thoughts and feelings those who want a truly democratic and just society, for them to become civic action.

What tools and references Theatre aesthetic pick in the process of creating the work?

I think a political artwork is by the superposition of experience that reflects a political and artistic process, in this sense the direction of assembly and formal discourse arises from a kind of collage of imagery manifesting ideological direction and the representational. Regarding the methodology of work ... For this type of theatrical experience is indispensable ideological commitment of all members of the company as well as the inclusion of their views about the topics that are to be developed. To do this we established a workflow that integrates the views and scenic imagery of the entire team working on the development of the history of Chile under the Republican regime. It is from this way of working that is the staging. Celebration is a work that emerges from the research stage and not from the dramatic construction. In As for my referring of course I can think of Brecht, Piscator and Boal and others.

Why do political theater today?

I think the main importance of political theater lies in the momentum, the real desire of wanting to dismantle the current state of things to consider not only unfair but especially anti human. I think we need to demonstrate a difference mainly discursive and formal artistic proposals that fall from the official, rather from the dominant ideas. Symbolic practices formally respond to ideas and those ideas is driving like it or not. That is why I believe it is essential that the political theater wonder about his own formality, not only for its content. It is important to make a difference, really the only way we will be an important factor subjective disband after modify our objective conditions of exploitation.

What do you think of the production of performing arts, especially theater that is being done in Chile today?

talk of theater production. In recent years there has been a boom in demand and supply of theatrical activity. This boom has meant an increase in production and spectators. Now, Who are these viewers? For the most part are people who have purchasing power, and in this case consume an item of value subjective. The rest of the population has no access to this "good" since it has the money to do so and therefore subjective need to "consume." Cultural policies Concertación and new government point in this direction, trying to install the performing arts, not technically reproducible in a target market for the economically affordable accommodated. These stagings then begin to develop speech and formality within the aesthetic parameters that need and promotes the market. This is a homogenizing tendency of certain theatricality that is installed as dominant but theoretically escape, it is so often the proposals that fall under this condition both in content and in form are denied by the official and dominant theatricality. That is the reality of the theatrical production, which is essential to change reality.

What are the objectives of the Public Theater, as they finance their productions and projects have a future?

Our goal is to stage creations that reveal certain aspects of our reality that invite us to reflect critically on the development of our social relations imposed by the economic model which we develop and politics bourgeois, that through this model represents the interests of national power groups and trans. We express our opinion and views through our theatrical imagination. We believe that in these times is essential to the commitment of all citizens in building a just and truly democratic country from their own fields.

art and in this case the theater is a tool to reveal the reality in which we develop, to disseminate ideas, to invite critical thinking and to push shares social change.

These actions of social change must come from the sectors that have been historically oppressed, from the working class. Approach to our work in these sectors is then essential. We finance through competitions and not get (as in this case) independently. Our project for the future is simple, to continue working together in the direction we have set despite all odds.
