Buenos Aires, too large for the nation, too small for the right approach |

| Argentina is megacephaly. This is not necessarily a terminal disease. France, for instance, is as well. And France has been one of the leading cultures and economies in the world. The weight of Paris or Buenos Aires in the national context is too large. A more equilibrate system might be more efficient apart from more equitable.
The Inter-American Development Bank, under the leadership of Francisca Rojas, is rightly approaching a decentralization policy promoting intermediate metropolis inland. Difficulties on inter-municipal governance frameworks have required analyzing the many alternative inter-institutional alternatives. From Confederate to Unitary to Federal frameworks alternatives are many. Dialogue and collective intelligence is the way forward. |
