This paper seeks to identify the public innovation generated through the "Full Time Schools Program" in Mexico, particularly for the 2018-2019 school year in the schools of the State of Puebla, evaluating the generation of public value through a survey perception answered by 612 principals of schools benefited from this program in the state. The research shows that although the program's operating rules point out the criteria for generating public value, there are sections of political control in the operation that could be improved in the state public management.

This paper has as its objective to analyze how the relationship between public administration and public policy research is rethought when conceiving the latter as governmentality technologies. As a central argument, it claims that public policies are inscription by technical mediations, and their effects, in the order of governmentality are, at the same time, technologies affecting the comprehension of public policy field, State, public administration and society. The following section: methodology and results, was mapped based on "Corruption and fight against corruption in Colombia. Case analysis" study. Finally, we conclude that research in public policies, studied as governmentality technologies, must start by questioning the epistemic and ontological postulates of what has been conceived, from classical interpretations, such as public administration and the State/society relationship.

Depending on the regulation, the border of a Nation-state can be classified as a barrier or a contact point. The notion of security stems from territorial defense and sovereignty. Globalization has made an impact in border regions with a major influx of people, goods, services, money and crime. Border, security and development concepts have merged to guarantee border policy practices in those spaces, strengthening surveillance and control. This paper examines the current situation of the boundary between Venezuela and Colombia from a postmodernist political geography approach, by using documental and newspaper records. Notable aspects of this border are: that both States leave border areas unattended; the clash of two States with an internal crisis and different political, jurisdictional and economical systems; a lack of integral border policies and an ever growing surge of violence and crime that affects areas closest to the borders.

As an instrument of the Colombian market-led land reform, the Comprehensive Land Subsidy (SIT) provides for land entitlement to poor peasants and smallholders tied to the development of rural production projects, through a communal property regime in certain cases. Through the case study of Sandrana y Samaría, this paper seeks to analyze the extent to which this land reform instrument and its implementation conditions create the necessary framework for productive and community development based on the acquisition of a land title. To that end, the study focuses on the logic of the main aspects of this policy instrument in the context of the Colombian land reform policy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
