The relevance of this article is conditioned by the decentralization of the reform of political power in Ukraine, which presents the State with the permanent challenge of finding new ways to solve the problems of governance and governability at the district and regional level. The objective of the article was to carry out a scientific investigation on the mechanism of introduction of institutes of prefects in Ukraine, based on the experience of the main western European countries. The main research methods are general and specific, including the methods of logic, analysis and comparison of the sources consulted. The results of this study are to identify ways to introduce an institute of prefects in Ukraine. By way of conclusion, it highlights the importance of the results obtained, which is reflected in the fact that this study can serve as a basis to delineate future changes to the current legislation of Ukraine on issues of state administration, at the district and regional level, by introducing the institute of prefects.

Since humanity is facing a Global Warming where some of its effects will be both the rise of ocean levels and the increase aggressiveness of storm surges, many States located in low-lying islands are at risk of losing part of its surface and even disappear. Indeed, many of these small countries are not only characterized by its low altitude, but also by its low GDP per capita, a condition that makes them even more vulnerable to sea rise and violence triggered by climate change that approach. In such a scenario certainly likely at the end of this century, Chile can now take a global prominence thanks to its oceanic conditions and its integration into the international community, both qualities that this country often declares. Indeed, Chile can propose an annexation to the governments of the Pacific Small Island Developing States (SIDS); making that population and territories are Chileans and avoid future and pejorative immigration status or environmental refugees. These news Chileans could settle in regions as Aysén, promoting their development; while on the other side in what remains of the abandoned islands, Chile can materialize science centers, facilities for the exploitation of natural resources and military bases; thus achieving an effective screening throughout the Pacific. To develop this ambitious project, it must overcome several obstacles, including producing evasive and disruptive technology for the dangerous islands.

Over the last few years, the unconventional energy revolution has profoundly changed, if not the essence of global energy geopolitics, at least its narrative. This article analyses the impact of such a geo-economic shift for Southern European countries. Despite this development, North Africa will remain the main energy supplier for EU Mediterranean countries. As a consequence, the main shared strategic challenge regarding energy security will be the geopolitical deepening of a wider North Africa. To manage European energy interdependency with the Mediterranean Southern shore in such a changing context a new, credible and more appealing energy narrative for their southern energy partners should be developed. This article proposes some of the elements that could be included to successfully increase energy cooperation in the Western Mediterranean. Keywords: Euromediterranean energy relations, energy security, unconventional energy revolution, global energy geopolitics, North Africa, European Union. ; La gestión de la interdependencia energética en el Mediterráneo Occidental Resumen. Durante los últimos años, la revolución energética no convencional ha cambiado profundamente, si no la esencia de la geopolítica global de la energía, al menos su narrativa. Este artículo analiza el impacto de este cambio geoeconómico para los países del sur de Europa. A su pesar el Norte de África continuará siendo la principal fuente de suministro energético para los países mediterráneos de la Unión Europea. En consecuencia, el mayor desafío estratégico común para su seguridad energética consiste en un Norte de África más amplio y profundo. Para gestionar la interdependencia energética europea con la orilla sur del Mediterráneo en un contexto cambiante como el actual, debe elaborarse un nuevo discurso energético creíble y más atractivo para los socios meridionales. En este artículo se proponen algunos elementos que podrían ser incluidos en una nueva narrativa para mejorar la cooperación energética en el Mediterráneo Occidental. Palabras clave: relaciones energéticas euromediterráneas, seguridad energética, revolución energética no convencional, geopolítica energética global, Norte de África, Unión Europea. ; La gestion de l'interdépendance énérgetique dans la Méditerranée Occidentale Au cours des dernières années, si la révolution de l'énergie non conventionnelle n'a pas profondément changé l'essence de la géopolitique mondiale de l'énergie, elle a transformé au moins sa narrative. Cet article analyse l'impact de ce changement géo-économique pour les pays de l'Europe du Sud. L'Afrique du Nord continuent d'être la principale source d'approvisionnement en énergie pour les pays méditerranéens de l'Union Européenne. Par conséquent, le plus grand défi stratégique commun pour sa sécurité énergétique est une Afrique du Nord plus large et approfondie d'une perspective géopolitique. Pour gérer l'interdépendance énergétique européenne avec la rive sud de la Méditerranée dans un contexte si changeant, un discours énergétique plus crédible et plus attirant pour les partenaires du Sud doit être développée. Cet article propose quelques éléments qui pourraient être inclus dans un nouveau récit sur la coopération énergétique en Méditerranée occidentale. Mots clés : relations énergétiques euro-méditerranéennes, sécurité énergétique, révolution non conventionnelle, géopolitique de l'énergie, Afrique du Nord, Union Européenne.

The global crisis that began in advanced economies has sent severe shocks around the world, posing a test to the economies of Latin America and the Caribbean. The good news is that during this decade the region has made itself more resilient to external shocks, by strengthening policy frameworks and reducing vulnerabilities in its public finances and financial systems. These preparations, the report shows, mean that countries are now more able to respond to the external crisis, many for the first time, with active policies to boost output and employment and protect the most vulnerable groups

As a member of the South Conceptualismos Network (RCSur) and without attempting to attribute to my voice a representative character of the group, in this presentation I analyse the alliance between this collective platform of knowledge and position on the artistic and political practices of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s in Latin America and the current cultural policies of the National Museum of the Centro de Arte Reina Sofia (MNCARS) as a unique case of institutional experimentation and networking that aims at re-shaping the relations between the Southern Museum and Public Dialogue in Latin America and the current cultural policies of the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia (Museo Nacional de Arte Reina Sofia) as a unique case of institutional experimentation and networking aimed at re-shaping the relations between the Southern Museum and Public Dialogue in Latin America and the current cultural policies of the National Museum of Reina Reina Sofia (MNCARS). From a post-colonial perspective, the scope and faults of the project are analysed, including these reflections in the aesthetic and political tensions in the current economic and social crisis. This diagnosis makes it possible to reflect more generally on the problems of aesthetic museum policies around Latin American dematerialised practices, the relationship between the production of online knowledge and cultural institutions, and certain inputs inherent in the way in which the present attempt is made to remember Latin American 'critical' experiences of past decades. ; Peer reviewed ; As a member of the South Conceptualismos Network (RCSur) and without attempting to attribute to my voice a representative character of the group, in this presentation I analyse the alliance between this collective platform of knowledge and position on the artistic and political practices of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s in Latin America and the current cultural policies of the National Museum of the Centro de Arte Reina Sofia (MNCARS) as a unique case of institutional ...

Levels of electoral volatility after the 2008 Great Recession were record in most Western European countries. The main causes of this electoral instability were the negative development of the economy, the crisis of the traditional political parties and the changes in the issues of political competition. At the individual level, it is not clear what factors lead voters to change partisan preferences after the Great Recession. In addition, in general terms, little is known about the differences between a stable voter and a volatile one. This study, for 12 Western European countries after the economic crisis, concludes that the economic voter model did not always explain the change of party preference after 2008, while sentiments of political dissatisfaction would help us to understand the change of parties between elections. ; Los niveles de volatilidad electoral tras la Gran Recesión de 2008 fueron récord en la mayoría de los países de Europa occidental. Entre las principales causas de esta inestabilidad electoral destacan el desarrollo negativo de la economía, la crisis de los partidos tradicionales y el cambio de los temas de competición política. A nivel individual, se desconoce qué factores propiciaron que los electores cambiasen de preferencia partidista después de la Gran Recesión. Además, en general, se sabe poco sobre las diferencias entre un elector estable y uno volátil. Este estudio de 12 países de Europa occidental tras la crisis económica concluye que el modelo del votante económico no siempre explicó el cambio de preferencia partidista después de 2008, mientras que los sentimientos de desafección política se encuentran entre las principales razones para entender el cambio de partidos entre elecciones.

The 15M movement was extended since its birth to the squares in Madrid and other cities in Spain through popular assemblies. These are the method and form of the policy exercise that 15M deploys in urban public space. Organised using a precise methodology, air assemblies constitute a rhythmic street occupancy exercise which puts not only speech but also the bodies of its participants at the forefront of their practice. In her street, the assemblies carry out the most genuine political gesture: the aeration of things that concern us. In this article we wonder about the political atmosphere brought to the city by the assemblies and we highlight two unique aspects: an outpatient architecture characterised by constant transit and concern for care practices. Our argument is that air assemblies implement a policy that is in abeyance and is characterised by its fragility and by making the same conditions visible. ; Peer reviewed ; The 15M movement was extended since its birth to the squares in Madrid and other cities in Spain through popular assemblies.

Considering as young countries those parts of the world which were occupied and to some extent populated as a result of "Europe's expansion", which began with the discovery of America and extended to Australia, New Zeeland and some parts of Africa, the author tries to make a distinction between two completely different types of colonies in accordance with the way these areas were colonized. In the "exploitation" type of colony, a small number of european immigrants were conquerors, governors, missionaries, landowners, lawyers, merchants, military or civil servants and belonged to a superiors class, whereas the natives were doing most of the actual work. In the "colonization" type, the native population, which was very scarce, has been dislodged and some cases exterminated and the work was done by the immigrants or imported slaves. Argentina, Uruguay, the South of Brazil and Chile belong to the "colonization" type as also most of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zeeland, whereas most of the Latin- American republics were colonies of the "exploitation type". To-day these countries, especially those of English origin, enjoy a high income level, because the access to education and technical knowledge enabled the population to get the benefit of a high productivity. As to the countries of Spanish origin, before the second world war, Argentina and Uruguay had a per capita income very close to that of the English origin countries, but comparing with the year 1950, although Argentina is in a higher position than other Latin-American countries, her income level is lower than that of ten countries of Western Europe. One can say that the material living standard is generally higher in Argentina than in other Latin-American countries of the "exploitation" type, but lower than in the "colonization" type of British origin countries. ; Instituto de Investigaciones Económicas
