INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION FOR DEVELOPMENT OR DELAY
Abstract
International Cooperation for Development (CID) despite being considered an important instrument for peaceful coexistence and stability of the international system, has failed to achieve its main objective which is the economic and social development to reduce global poverty. To demonstrate the above, a distinction is made between cooperation and assistance, stating that the first occurs in symmetrical relationships in which the parties involved give and receive, while the second is called to respond to the interests of donors. Next, it examines the conflict between national interest and cooperation, to finally reveal how unproductive has been the CID in solving the problems of underdevelopment, because its actions have been ineffective and inadequate, which can be seen with the humanitarian crisis lived in the planet today, that require an analysis from the social and political sciences standpoint and from the interdisciplinary view that characterizes bioethics as the ethic of the XXI century.
... Bilateral cooperation involves two countries or the institutions of two countries. Relationships are formed between governments through their embassies, although in each country cooperation agencies or institutions take part to provide technical assistance ( Ripoll and Ghotme 2015).

La Cooperación oficial descentralizada (COD), es una modalidad de cooperación para el desarrollo cuyos actores principales son los gobiernos locales y regionales.
Este artículo describe las características más importantes de las relaciones de COD desde un "modelo vertical" tradicionalista y un "modelo horizontal" que pretende avanzar hacia relaciones soportadas en la reciprocidad entre socios. Bajo este contexto, se analiza el comportamiento de la cooperación de las Comunidades autónomas (CC AA) españolas con mayor presencia en el país en el periodo 1995-2007 y se plantean algunos elementos de reflexión para avanzar de una visión tradicionalista hacia formas más equilibradas y reciprocas que mejoren la calidad y la eficacia de la COD y que beneficien los procesos de desarrollo local en Colombia.
Timor-Leste es el Estado más joven y más pobre de Asia. Su surgimiento como Estado se ha constituido en un interesante laboratorio para la reinterpretación de las teorías clásicas sobre la construcción de la nación, del Estado, su reconocimiento internacional y la viabilidad institucional. Este documento hace un recorrido sintético por los principales hechos históricos que han contribuido en la formación de la República Democrática de Timor-Leste, así como los factores que han incidido en su reconocimiento como Estado.
La construcción de la nación, desde una perspectiva de comunidad imaginada, entra en conflicto con la catalogación de Timor-Leste como un Estado fallido. Al respecto, se abordan los conceptos de Estado colapsado o fallido y su aplicabilidad en el caso de Timor. De igual manera, se esbozan algunos retos planteados a partir de su independencia, como son el proceso de reconciliación y reconstrucción de memoria histórica, de identidad y lingüísticos, así como aspectos socioeconómicos y geopolíticos.
Zambia was a middle-income country when it achieved independence from Great Britain in 1964. After decades of international aid Zambia has become a low-income country, and its per capita GDP is only now returning to the levels it had reached over forty years ago. While aid is far from the only variable at work in Zambia’s development, its impact has been questionable. This paper examines the issue of aid effectiveness in Zambia, especially in terms of how the incentive structure faced by donors may lead to decreased accountability and inadequate concern for long-term outcomes, rendering aid less beneficial. The paper concludes by proposing a revised approach to the provision and use of international aid in Zambia, as well as in other aid-dependent countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The newest liberal institutionalism asserts that, although it accepts a major realist proposition that international anarchy impedes cooperation among states, it can nevertheless affirm the central tenets of the liberal institutionalist tradition that states can achieve cooperation and that international institutions can help them work together. However, this essay's principal argument is that neoliberal institutionalism misconstrues the realist analysis of international anarchy and therefore it misunderstands realism's analysis of the inhibiting effects of anarchy on the willingness of states to cooperate. This essay highlights the profound divergences between realism and the newest liberal institutionalism. It also argues that the former is likely to be proven analytically superior to the latter.
