No Change in Uruguay: The 1999 Presidential and Parliamentary Elections

Espindola, Roberto January 2001 (has links)
No / The first round of Uruguay's presidential election on 31 October 1999 produced an unprecedented result. Tabaré Vázquez, candidate of the centre¿left coalition Encuentro Progresista¿Frente Amplio (EP¿FA), won a plurality of votes, but fell short of outright victory. Therefore, for the first time in a Uruguayan presidential contest, a second round was held, on 28 November 1999. This returned a no-change verdict, with the presidency remaining in the hands of the Partido Colorado (PC). Finally successful in his fifth attempt to become President, Jorge Batlle led a centre¿right coalition to victory over Vázquez, by 54.1% to 45.9%. The elections were also characterised by a very high turnout: 91.8% of the electorate went to the polls. The success of EP¿FA in the first round led to frantic negotiations between traditional rivals on the right, the PC and the Partido Nacional (PN).1 The dealing and discussion continued right up to the date of the second round; finally the coalition was able to block Vázquez's path to the presidency. Despite their ultimate defeat, these were the best results for the centre¿left since 1971. The EP¿FA won 40 out of 99 seats in the lower house, the Chamber of Deputies. However, although the centre¿left Nuevo Espacio (NE) won four seats and could arrive at an understanding with EP¿FA, the right still controls the lower house with 33 PC and 22 PN deputies. The distribution of Senate seats is similar: the EP¿FA is the largest party, with 12 seats, but can be outvoted if the PC (10 seats) and PN (7 seats) combine. The NE won the single remaining seat of the 30-member Senate.

Guitarra Olimareña : de lo regional a lo local en la práctica guitarrística de la milonga "A Don José", de Ruben Lena

Victoria Farez, Gonzalo January 2015 (has links)
Magíster en artes con mención en musicología / Este trabajo está dividido en tres capítulos, donde cada uno focaliza sobre distintos componentes que integran la canción. En el primer capítulo se propone un panorama sobre la guitarra popular en el Uruguay a partir de la década de 1960. En el capítulo dos, el tema central es la Milonga Oriental, con una mirada crítica sobre los mapas milongueros estáticos que conforman el área de dispersión del género. En este sentido se proponen otras configuraciones regionales que mantienen la presencia de la milonga, mayoritariamente en el territorio uruguayo, algunas Provincias argentinas, el Estado de Río Grande do Sul (Brasil) y el sur paraguayo. En el último capítulo se analiza un caso de estudio local que enmarca una escena musical de Treinta y Tres, donde el cruce conceptual con marcos teóricos de lo barrial y las relaciones de poder dan paso a una consideración final: la retrospectiva de la canción “A Don José”, vista en el marco local de donde surgió, pero desde la actualidad. La búsqueda general del trabajo se puede definir en el intento de instalar la discusión sobre esta canción que gravita entre los estudios culturales de los instrumentos musicales y la configuración de las rutas milongueras de la región, dando cuenta de una red de significación política sobre un mapa relacional que constantemente está redefiniendo los alcances y límites del espacio urbano donde estas ideas se encarnan.

Historia y presente del yeísmo (rehilado) en el Uruguay

Canale, Germán, Coll, Magdalena 25 September 2017 (has links)
El yeísmo, así como su rehilamiento y ensordecimiento, son rasgos caracterizadores del español del Uruguay. Varios estudios locales han indagado sobre estos fenómenos atendiendo tanto a cuestiones diacrónicas como sincrónicas. Sin embargo, y tal como se desprende de la literatura especializada, no contamos hasta el momento con una mirada crítica y global de estos estudios ni con una evaluación panorámica de sus resultados. En el presente trabajo, ofrecemos una revisión crítica de las investigaciones sobre el yeísmo, el rehilamiento y el ensordecimiento en el Uruguay, prestando especial atención a la caracterización histórica de estos fenómenos, su estado actual en el sistema fonológico del español del Uruguay y las actitudes asociadas a ellos. Esto nos permite, por un lado, aportar a la caracterización de la historia del español del Uruguay, así como también contribuir con una mirada local a un fenómeno ciertamente complejo en la historia del español. Por otro lado, la revisión crítica de los estudios nos permite identificar sus aportes globales y sus limitaciones específicas e identificar nuevas áreas de investigación en la temática para una caracterización más contundente y acabada de estos fenómenos. / The phenomena of yeísmo, rehilamiento and devoicing are certainly constitutive of Uruguayan Spanish. In the past, many studies have analyzed these phenomena focusing on both the synchronic and the diachronic perspectives of language analysis. However –and as indicated by the specialized literature–  there still have not been systematic attempts to evaluate –globally and critically– previous studies and their findings. This paper provides a critical review of studies addressing yeísmo, rehilamiento and devoicing in Uruguayan Spanish. Our focus is on the historical description of these processes, their current status in the phonological system of Uruguayan Spanish and the social attitudes attached to them. This allows us to contribute to the history of the Spanish language in Uruguay, but also to provide a local view of a phonological and phonetic process that is by definition complex and that has for a long time accompanied the phonological evolution of Spanish. On the other hand, providing a critical review of the literature also allows us to identify and evaluate previous contributions, theoretical and methodological limitations and future research areas. In turn, this will help us achieve a better understanding of these phenomena.

Estimación de precios sociales para proyectos de transporte en Uruguay

Leiva Moya, Matías Eduardo January 2014 (has links)
Ingeniero Civil Industrial / En 2012, Uruguay inició su Sistema Nacional de Inversión Pública (SNIP), con él pretende dar un mejor enfoque a la entrega de recursos en función de las prioridades nacionales. Desde entonces, se ha regularizado la estimación de precios sociales de factores básicos de producción como la mano de obra, la divisa y la tasa social de descuento. El presente trabajo de título pretende realizar una estimación de los precios sociales, concerniente a proyectos de transporte, como apoyo a un estudio para la Oficina de Planeación y Presupuesto (en adelante OPP), dependiente de la secretaria nacional de la presidencia en Uruguay. Se propuso hacer una revisión a los principales aspectos teóricos relacionados al cálculo de precios sociales, en particular, el trabajo realizado consistió primero en la definición de los precios sociales atingentes al transporte, para posteriormente realizar una revisión bibliográfica respecto a los modelos y métodos de estimación y, finalmente, realizar la estimación propiamente tal de los precios sociales relacionados del transporte. Para esto, se recopilaron las estructuras de costos y la información pública respecto a los precios sociales de factores básicos de producción, para, posteriormente, calcular las razones de precio social de cada bien. Se decidió por un modelo de equilibrio general para los precios sociales de los combustibles, lubricantes, asfaltos y transporte carretero de carga, y se optó por un modelo de equilibrio parcial para el Valor Social del tiempo. De los resultados obtenidos se tiene que la razón de precio social (RPS) del combustible para los tres principales, Nafta, Gas-Oil y Fuel-Oil, es 0,58, 0,89 y 0,935 respectivamente. El RPS de los lubricantes es 0,935. Para el RPS del Asfaltos se obtuvo un valor de 0,809, mientras que el RPS para el transporte carretero de carga, fue de 0,7736 y 0,7885 para camiones de tipo I y II respectivamente. Respecto al valor social del tiempo, se obtuvo un valor de $40 pesos uruguayos por hora para rutas urbanas. Para áreas interurbanas $82,82 para automóviles, $109,81 para camionetas, $121,89 para camiones y $479,62 para buses interurbanos. Finalmente para áreas rurales se obtuvo $90,96 para automóviles, $12,60 para camionetas, $133,87 para camiones y $247,80 para buses rurales. Como conclusión, se espera que este trabajo sirva como guía metodológica para las futuras actualizaciones en base a los precios de mercado o nuevos antecedentes de los bienes estudiados.

Diagnóstico de crecimiento de Uruguay : avanzar hacuia el crecimiento sostenido

Ortega Silva, Camilo I January 2012 (has links)
Seminario para optar al grado de Ingeniero Comercial, Mención Economía / El siguiente trabajo presenta un diagnóstico de crecimiento de Uruguay, para lo cual se utilizará la metodología “Growth Diagnostics” de Hausmann, Rodrik & Velasco (2005). Al observar el desempeño en el largo plazo, el país no ha logrado converger al PIB de las naciones desarrolladas, por lo cual se buscan las razones de dicho desempeño. El trabajo identifica que Uruguay cuenta con problemas en la diversificación de su matriz productiva, baja capacidad de producción energética, un déficit fiscal bastante alto y bajas dotaciones de capital humano, siendo esta última la identificada como la restricción activa, sin embargo, al provenir de diversas ramas del árbol de decisión dichas restricciones, podríamos estar encontrándonos frente a un puzzle de crecimiento. / The next paper presents a growth diagnostic of Uruguay, which will use the method “Growth Diagnostics” by Hausmann, Rodrik & Velasco (2005). Watching the performance in long terms, the country does not converge to develop nations, so we seek the reasons for such performance. The paper identify that Uruguay have problems in the diversification of its productive matrix, low energy production, high fiscal debt and low human capital dotation, being the last one identify as the active restriction, however, these restrictions are coming from various branches of the decision tree, so we could be in front of a growth puzzle

SOCIAL SERVICE CURRICULA IN URUGUAY: BACKGROUNDS, AND PERCEPTIONS OF CURRICULA HELD BY URUGUAYAN SOCIAL SERVICE PROFESSIONALS

Boller, Daniel Winship January 1981 (has links)
The purpose of this research was to determine, describe and analyze the patterns of social service curricula in Uruguay. This exploratory study obtained data about structured and unstructured social service education, and the educational and professional backgrounds of educators and social service workers. The research process included: (1) administration of a questionnaire to University of the Republic's School of Social Service (EUSS) faculty to determine their perceptions of School curriculum, and their personal backgrounds; (2) administration of a questionnaire to social service workers in Montevideo to determine their perceptions of their professional education, and their personal backgrounds; (3) analysis of structured social service at EUSS and the Institute of Philosophy, Sciences and Letters’ (IFCL) Department of Social Service (formerly School of Social Service of Uruguay); (4) analysis of in-service social service education offered in Montevideo; and (5) observation of and participation in social service activities essentially in Montevideo. Forty-four faculty members of EUSS and one hundred and twenty social service workers responded to questionnaires. The results of the present research may be summarized thusly: (1) the social service professional respondents demonstrated a complete dedication to their profession and to the well-being of less fortunate members of Uruguayan society; (2) perceptions held by EUSS faculty about twenty-two courses of the EUSS 1979 curriculum were: nine courses, satisfactory in content; twelve courses, improve content; and one course, considerable content improvement required; (3) social service curricula of EUSS and IFCL differed notably in their requirements in social sciences, methodology and special course work; (4) the curricular mission of the Institute for Domestic Social Training (IFFS) appeared overly concerned with the family unit; (5) EUSS practicum training was poorly supervised by faculty, a broad spectrum of training sites was not used, and agency personnel were not utilized sufficiently for supervision of interns; (6) in-service educational offerings were limited in scope and number, and schools of social service were not meeting the continuing education needs of professional workers; (7) rural social service needs were not being met by structured and in-service education, nor was sufficient research being done about rural social problems; (8) insufficient research was being directed toward the indigenization and reconceptualization of social service curricula; (9) EUSS instructors were all part-time and limited in post-graduate training; (10) interest in postgraduate courses and a masters' degree program was high among EUSS faculty and social service professionals; and (11) graduates of Uruguayan schools of social service were limited in their ability to conduct independent research or to accept mid-level administrative positions due to minimal training in these two educational areas. EUSS faculty and social service professional defined social service priority curricular areas of emphasis for the 1980 as health, primary and secondary education, children, housing, the family, and social rehabilitation. Several conclusions and recommendations were derived from this research, including: (1) EUSS and IFCL curricula differed in emphasis on the social sciences and methodology courses; (2) social service education should be divided, and undergraduate education should be the responsibility of IFCL, and post-graduate education, as a structured masters’ degree program, the responsibility of the University of the Republic through a newly founded Graduate School of Social Service. In-service education should be a cooperative program involving all public and private social service educational institutions; (3) social service educators and professional workers should unite to influence national social policy formation; and (4) social service educators and professionals should give high priority to research to meet future needs of the Uruguayan society.
