| Summary: |
Colombian legislation on structure and public administration is usually written for
large cities that have the physical and human resources needed to manage the most complex,
technological and ritualistic responsibilities. However, in Colombian towns, authorities and
officers must organize and exercise their duties agreeing to those rules, which had not
necessarily taken into account the special conditions of medium or little size towns. Thus, a
sincere thinking over the subject, leaves no more option but to give to the municipalities under
special conditions the choice to elect among different organizations and structures that may be reasonable and suitable, according to their needs. In this article the experience of the United
States is taken as a reference for in that country, every town, municipality and county, has the
legal faculty to choose a form of local government, each one with a specific electoral system,
according to the alternatives given by law by each state. |
