GONZALEZ, Camilo Ignacio  and  TANCO CRUZ, Luisa Fernanda. ESTABLISHING PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS IN COLOMBIA: DO SECTOR AND FUNCTIONS MATTER?. Innovar [online]. 2019, vol.29, n.71, pp.113-126. ISSN 0121-5051.  https://doi.org/10.15446/innovar.v29n71.76399.

This article test the relationship between the establishment of public organizations in Colombia, the functions they exercise and the public policy sector to which they belong. It also studies whether this relationship is mediated by the different styles of reforms that, since 1990, have sought to favor public organizations with certain types of functions in particular public policy sectors. For this purpose, we carried out a mapping of public organizations in Colombia from 1990 to 2015. The information gathered was analyzed by means of logistic regression. Results allow concluding that, in Colombia, only the functions of formulating public policies and regulating economic sectors explain the creation of public sector organizations. Results also show that the establishment of entities with little legal autonomy has been privileged.

Keywords : Establishment of public organizations; functions; public sector reform; public policy sectors.
