| Sumario: | This article contains an approach to the dynamics of the relationship between civil society and the decentralized statc within Venezuelan federal entities and mmlicipalities. The central hypothesis maintains that from the onsct of the decentralization process in 1990 there ha'> been a proliferation of civil groups that are organized aruund public concerns such as health, housing, education and ncighborhood social programs, and that are associated with thc increasing competency exercised by city councils and state governments; and, secondly, that the relationship established with these territorial government structures is still prccarious, since their performance depends more upon the initiative shown by governments than by the degrcc of autonomy contained within the mechanisms promoting civil participation. This paper emphasizes the importance of this recent reality bound by tendencies towards a greater complexness of the social prucesses and towards a growing functional differentiation that demands the e:x:istence of public spheres, far beyond the State. From this outlook, the processes ofdecentralization provide fertile ground for expanding the mechanisms for civil participation, provided that they can dim the marked mobilizing and clicntcle signs of the patrimonialist state, and give way to the growing institutionalization of civil group actions within tl1e territories. |
