Vorstellung eines von Eduardo Galeano verfaßten Beitrags, der sich mit Problemen und Perspektiven des lateinamerikanischen Subkontinents befaßt. Darin kritisiert der Autor die undifferenzierte Übernahme europäischer Demokratievorstellungen, soweit sie lediglich formale Kriterien der demokratischen Praxis beinhalten und nicht auf die tatsächliche Entwicklung politischer Freiheiten in den jeweiligen Ländern ausgerichtet sind

Entrevista realizada por Fernando Arellano Ortiz a Eduardo Galeano. El mundo patas arriba.

As veias abertas da América Latina, de Eduardo Galeano, resume e populariza com uma extraordinária beleza literária as principais teses da Teoria Marxista da Dependência. Está em sintonia com essa vertente na crítica ao capitalismo e no peso que atribui às rebeliões populares. O livro antecipou denúncias atuais do extrativismo e reprimarização e sublinhou a regressão industrial geradas pelas políticas liberais. A degradação do trabalho, a escala do endividamento e a gravidade da crise confirmam os diagnósticos expostos no texto. O imperialismo e a direita continuam molestando a região e a resistência popular recria as tradições políticas descritas por Galeano. O seu livro é um símbolo de esperança preservada por muitos latino-americanos.

Renewable energy is becoming very important as a way to mitigate climate change and promote job creation. Colombia is not excluded from this reality, being a country with huge renewable resources and the challenge to give employment to thousands or rebels, signing the peace process. This paper studies the potential effects of the new regulation to promote the development of renewable energy technologies in Colombia. Two incentives are analyzed: tax deductions on the investment and accelerated depreciation on assets. The work also establishes a methodology to include the effects of tax incentives in the calculation of the Levelized Cost Of Electricity (LCOE). The results show up to 20% reduction in the LCOE; unfortunately, the regulation restricts small or new business to apply for all incentives. For this reason, two complementary mechanisms (granting five years as grace period for loan repayment and lower discount rate as subsidy from the government) are proposed in order to allow small business ventures such as forest biomass projects apply to incentives. As a result, 30% reduction in the LCOE is obtained for photovoltaics (PV) and 15% for forest biomass; being the last one a great opportunity in Colombia because of the huge amount of biomass resources and its potential to create new job opportunities.
