El concepto de servicio público, a pesar de las muchas polémicas que despierta en la doctrina, es una de las nociones que más interés despierta en los estudios del Derecho Administrativo. En efecto, se trata de una prestación técnica que satisface necesidades de carácter general, con sujeción a un régimen jurídico exorbitante del derecho ordinario. En tal virtud, como competencia de la Administración Pública, contribuye a la realización de los cometidos estatales y de los fines públicos. El presente trabajo aborda los principales aspectos que rodean a la temática del servicio público, de modo que brinda una introducción sumamente útil sobre la materia. ; The concept of public service, despite the multiple controversies that it arises in legal doctrine, is one of the notions that most interest awakes within Administrative Law.

Consequently, as a competence of the Public Administration, it contributes to the achievement of government tasks and public purposes. This article analyzes the principal aspects of public service, offering an extremely useful introduction to this matter.

The indebtedness of a group of very low-income countries grew rapidly in the 80s and in the beginning of the 90s, becoming a serious problem for their development. In 1996 the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank presented an initiative to relieve this debt which meant an important change in the manner of addressing the issue. The present article makes a survey of this initiative and examines its grounds and limitations, which serves as a basis for studying the role of debt reduction and other forms of aid as mechanisms to promote the development of the poorest countries.

In this paper the author explores the evolution of the Mexican public debt over the decade following the 1994-1995 crisis. He focuses on the analysis of the "explicit debt," which is the one that Congress refers to when authorizing indebtedness ceilings. Fernandez finds that public debt is now in a healthier situation than ten years ago. The difference lays not so much in its size but in its structure, which is carefully analyzed by the author. Although this assessment is clearly positive, there is a negative side to the management of public finances, namely, the existence of financial obligations that do not appear in official statistics by the name of public debt, but that will impose a financial burden on the government. 2 Tables, 1 Graph, 14 References.

Capital flows to developing countries began to experience a rapid growth by 1990. This article examines their behavior & impact on receiving economies. Their modalities & causes are explored, as well as the main features of two capital-flow related crises: the so-called "effect" crisis of 1994-1995, & the Asian crisis of 1997. These economic cracks differ from previous ones connected to expansive fiscal policies, such as the 1976 & 1982 Mexican crises. There were various contributing factors to these calamities, including local currency overvaluations, financial liberalizations followed by rapid credit expansions, & above all, disparities between the maturity of investments & of those instruments financing them, that resulted in liquidity problems. Having in mind the experiences of the 1990s crises, the author advances various deterrent measures that governments may implement within the national context, & some recent proposals for transforming the way international financial markets operate. 17 References.

En este artículo presentamos un análisis del problema de los recursos de uso común desde la perspectiva de la teoría de juegos. Después de definir las características que ocasionan que ciertos recursos sean de uso común, construimos un modelo formal que muestra la existencia de incentivos a su sobreexplotación y a la subinversión en su cuidado. Examinamos dos posibles instituciones para resolver este problema de incentivos. La primera, la privatización, posee propiedades de eficiencia enfatizadas por la microeconomía tradicional. La segunda es el manejo de los recursos por parte de un grupo delimitado de usuarios locales por un periodo de tiempo indefinido. Demostramos que, bajo ciertas condiciones, esta segunda institución también puede proveer incentivos adecuados para el manejo exitoso de los recursos.
