Open State and Public Management: The Role of the Academic Sector. Valeria Torres, Alejandra Naser y Ester Kaufman. (coords.)
Abstract
The collectively authored book seeks some answers and analyzes cases of implementation of Open State programs, which have had a lasting impact on the institutions of origin. The volume was coordinated by Valeria Torres, Officer in Charge of the Public Management and Open Government Area, Alejandra Naser, Senior Assistant for Economic Affairs, both from the Latin American and Caribbean Institute for Economic and Social Planning (ILPES) of the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), and Ester Kaufman, Regional Coordinator of the Academic Network of Open Government (RAGA). Its objective is to develop new roles in the academic sector linked to the paradigm of the “inclusive open State”, integrating public management issues for its development. Its frame of reference is the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the principles of the open State. The authors as a whole had as their main objective to collectively define and develop the role of academia in these new contexts, its possible roles in supporting public management in a context of increasing incidence of disruptive technologies, such as those identified under the term "Exponential Era" introduced in the chapter by Oscar Oszlak.
