“…Meanwhile, another part lives in an abyss of labor exploitation that is either overt and unabashed, or disguised through the legal processes of outsourcing, relocation, and international fragmentation of the value chain. Corruption and economic domination have produced a new de facto social class in developed countries: the precariat ( Guamán & Luque, 2019 ; Luque et al , 2016 ; Standing, 2013 ). A great part of the world’s citizens finds themselves in this chasm, having been forced out of their natural ecosystem ( Sassen, 2015 ); in this abyss, any means of survival is valid including the processes of the informal economy.…”

The processes of informal economy are well established, but the same cannot be said of their conceptual treatment in the academic literature. They constitute complex phenomena that cut across sectors and disciplines and give rise to other elements that simultaneously reject and encourage them. For many formal stakeholders in the economy, they are an enemy to be beaten; for the authorities, informal activity is seen as a loss of revenue for the state coffers; for the Sustainable Development Goals, by implicitly recognizing them in goal 8, they constitute a paradigm shift. Meanwhile, the reality for those involved in the informal economy is that it is a way of life and not a mere choice, one that leads to the most social of all economies: that of necessity. There is no consensus among academics on informality and its ramifications, hence the need to analyze the processes of informal economy from its theoretical construction with the purpose of discovering its range and depth, as well as its interrelationships and theoretical implications. To achieve this, 102 definitions of informal economy were analyzed by identifying and deconstructing their dimensions and performing a frequency count of their citation in Google Scholar. This analysis demonstrated the lack of cultural elements in the definitions, which are the true underlying cause of the phenomenon, and the over-prominence afforded to legal dimensions.

El artículo expone el desarrollo evolutivo que ha tenido la noción de responsabilidad social empresarial (RSE) de las grandes empresas transnacionales en las dos primeras décadas del presente siglo. De una concepción unilateral y cerrada en la propia empresa a poner en práctica relaciones contractuales que generan obligaciones entre éstas y los sindicatos globales, para incidir con fuerza finalmente en la idea del deber de diligencia impuesto por una norma jurídica estatal, supranacional o internacional, en donde la vigilancia por el respeto de los derechos humanos en toda la cadena de valor de la empresa es determinante. Estas diferentes facetas de la noción se complementan entre ellas y arrojan como resultado un concepto complejo y polivalente de la RSE, en donde el marco institucional que la regula condiciona fuertemente sus contenidos y formas de expresión. el análisis comparado de tres países en américa latina (Ecuador, Chile y Argentina) confirman estas hipótesis de trabajo al ofrecer tres modelos diferentes de desarrollo de la RSE.

“…Sin embargo, también conllevan privilegios procesales asimétricos para las empresas: la elección de la jurisdicción, el no agotar los recursos internos, utilizar el tribunal arbitral como instancia de apelación a sentencias ordinarias y la falta de previsión por la que el Estado pueda demandar al inversor extranjero. Además, desde el punto de vista material se aplican las normas comerciales y no las normas sobre derechos humanos (Hernández Zubizarreta 2009, 239;Guamán 2018).…”

En nombre del desarrollo, el interés nacional y el bien común: violencia legítima y derecho penal del enemigo en tiempos de antiterrorismo

This article analyses the reconceptualization of the notion of “internal enemy” in the 21st century, as well as the current reconfigurations of the use of criminal law of the enemy as a mechanism of repression, criminalization and punishment of social movements in Guatemala, thus raising questions and argumentative lines that could also be applied to other Latin American countries. The analysis relies on the role played by the monopoly of "legitimate" violence in the reason of the State, as well as on the increasing relevance of multinational corporations and their “lex mercatoria” against the sovereignty of the State, not just as mere economic agents, but as forms of political authority.Received: 04 September 2019 Accepted: 24 February 2020 Published online: Articles in press 03 April 2020; No. 5 (2020) 26 June 2020
