Editorial Revista Ciencias Administrativas N°13

Abstract

A brand new issue of Ciencias Administrativas Journal, is a source of satisfaction not only for its editors, but especially for those who publish in it, they have had to follow a long process from sending their articles until see printed the fruit of their work.

According to Zygmun Bauman, we live in a world overloaded with information. Many authors that, as a result of their work, contribute to a growing universe of information that expects to be published. There, lies the biggest challenge of the publisher before the publication of each issue: be expeditious and, at the same time, ensure the quality required by the international standards.

For the 13^th issue of out Journal we have selected a set of eight articles whose authors come from four countries (Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico). It should be noted that all authors are university teachers and in two cases, also CONICET researchers. A brief presentation of all articles is described here below.

Within the category of research articles, four articles are included: “Model for implementation of integrated quality and environmental management system in a steel company”, “Financial structure of video games SMEs of Argentina”, “Willingness to pay for conservation of natural resources in Molino de Flores Nezahualcoyoti National Park – Mexico”, “Public Policies of social inclusion in Argentina 2003-2015 from social economy towards a civil economy?”.

The issue also includes two essays, namely: “Bibliographic review of organizational sustainability and ethics: relevant actors”, “Decision goals and bounded rationality”.

An article entitled “Reality of organizational structures in the Ecuadorian public sector 2007-20016” and a review on the first thesis of the Doctorate in Administration Sciences entitled “Management of the model of deinstitutionalization of adults with mental disorders in the public system of the province of Buenos Aires” completes this issue.

We hope these articles will contribute to a greater understanding of the addressed issues and help to disseminate relevant and pertinent knowledge in a universe overloaded with information.
