Abstract

Resumen El presente trabajo pretende contrastar la hipótesis de que la participación activa de la comunidad mejora la gestión de los recursos locales. En este sentido, explora si la participación política de los individuos en un ente territorial está relacionada con la calidad de los servicios educativos prestados por dichos entes. Con este objetivo, se ajusta un modelo donde se intenta explicar el auto reporte de satisfacción de los individuos con los servicios educativos prestados por los entes territoriales a partir de la disponibilidad de recursos e índices de participación política local. Se disenaron dos índices que miden el nivel y la concentración de la participación política por departamentos que se encuentran explicados por variables, que indican el nivel de cultura política y democracia en los individuos, además de variables relacionadas con la disponibilidad de recursos. Los resultados muestran que, además de la disponibilidad de recursos, la concentración de la participación política tiene influencia en la calidad de los servicios educativos prestados por los entes territoriales. Esto apoya la hipótesis de la existencia de una relación sinérgica y no lineal entre la disponibilidad de recursos, las estructuras políticas y la calidad institucional.
