Resumen
GARCIA CHOURIO, José Guillermo. Modernización institucional de las gobernaciones en Venezuela: el papel de la Escuela de Gobierno del estado Zulia (1990-2000). Convergencia [online]. 2008, vol.15, n.46, pp.249-284. ISSN 2448-5799.
The purpose of the article was to analyze the role played by the School of Government as a reform device for the State capacity increment of the Zulia provincial government during period 1990-2000. A methodological strategy consisting in the documentary analysis of both the reform projects of this government and the academic program of the School was used. This analysis was also complemented with free-speech and semi-structured interviews made to some employees of the school. It was observed that the actions of this learning center in order to generate State capacity increment depended, to a great extent, on the actions of former governors on mandate. They established the institutional adjustment that was considered necessary to advance in the efforts to obtain, mainly by training courses, a socio-cultural transformation of the government civil employees. According to this result, it is demonstrated that for this case, the administrative modernization, regardless of its direction and aims, depends largely on minimum agreements reached among the actors involved in the transformation process. This fact implies recognition of politics in the task of institutional change of the State.
