LEYVA BOTERO, Santiago y AGUDELO HENAO, Luis Fernando. A COUNCIL THAT TRANSFORMS FROM WITHIN?: THE ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNANCE RELATIONSHIP OF THE MEDELLIN COUNCIL BETWEEN 2008 AND 2011. Semest. Econ. [online]. 2013, vol.16, n.33, pp.181-206. ISSN 0120-6346.
This article examines the relationship between governance and the Medellin Council network, the purpose is to explore if there has been important transformations in this corporation that might speak of a breakdown of client relations. For this purpose, the governance concept is analyzed followed by a concept evaluation review proceeded by the application of a series of interviews. The paper concludes that the council of Medellin has introduced important changes in recent years, especially with regards to the ability of political control. The evidence shows that it is still premature to talk about networked governance in the Council of Medellin, because political networks remain focused on achieving electoral loyalties, without reaching a greater openness to other forms of civil society organization.
