BERTRANOU, Julián. Effective Stateness: Reflections on the State building on Guillermo O'Donnell's work. Temas debates (En línea) [online]. 2015, n.29, pp.33-51. ISSN 1853-984X.
Guillermo O'Donnell's work paid extensive attention to the issue of State's effectiveness and power. For O'Donnell, the State and its different expressions are key elements of contemporary democracies. For the Argentine political scientist, the State should not be studied observing only bureaucracies and its instruments, but contemplating principally the effectiveness of the established legal order that it seeks to guarantee. With the help of O'Donnell's work, this paper overviews several issues around State effectiveness: its infrastructural power; the inevitable, egalitarian and intra-subjective character of public order; and the links between effectiveness and capacity.
