Desarrollo sustentable:

Release Date: 2022-02-16
Desde los años setenta del siglo pasado, el mundo desarrollado presentó la estrategia que permitiría salvar el planeta de la inminente destrucción a causa de la contaminación y la sobreexplotación de los recursos naturales. Pero los avances en materia ambiental han sido pocos y frecuentemente se nos informa sobre la urgencia de construir una relación equilibrada entre el hombre y su entorno. Mientras tanto, simultáneamente somos arrastrados por un modelo de crecimiento económico e impulsados por la fuerza coercitiva del mercado por su promoción del consumismo. Entonces, no aparenta ser tan claro el sentido de esta importante meta global: crecimiento y desarrollo parecen estar más lejos que cercanos de un posible equilibrio ambiental, entendiendo que vivimos en un planeta finito con recursos materialmente limitados. Sería bueno saber si existe un verdadero compromiso de países ricos por revertir, por ejemplo, el avance del cambio climático, y si el desarrollo sustentable se está convirtiendo en un edulcolorante discursivo para tratar de alinear determinados intereses globales.
Governance and Performance Management in Public Universities

language: en
Publisher: Springer Nature
Release Date: 2022-01-07
This edited volume contributes to the ongoing research and practice on applying performance management to university governance. A comparative approach and international perspective of the issue is provided through extensive use of case studies and empirical findings. A specific focus is also placed on using performance governance applied to higher education institutions' Third Mission, and on enhancing decision makers’ ability to frame dynamic complexity. In this regard, specific attention is devoted to analyzing the cause-and-effect relationships in affecting public outcomes. This also includes managing trade-offs in both time and space, and detecting and counteracting unintended behavioral effects from the use of formal systems focused on quantitative measures for performance assessment.
