Through this article, its objective is to analyze the implementation and effectiveness of corporate governance rules, risks and the practice of possible irregularities, in the context of the Regulatory State of economic activity. The text analyzes the genesis of this institute until the creation of the regulatory agencies, as an instrument of government action on the markets, verifying whether such action has been more interventionist or more liberal, in economic terms. As a result of this study, it is considered that the regulation of economic activity, as well as the rules of corporate governance are necessarily unfinished legal works, whose improvement is essential for the proper normative effectiveness.

During the 1990s, a genuine "fever" that has spread the concepts of the State as a regulator in Europe and has initiated a process of 'agencification' -or the creation of agencies-arose and its effect has survived and become part of our daily life. This article focused its attention on the study of this recent phenomenon, especially on independent, sector regulatory agencies, setting aside regulatory institutions that operate in the financial and securities markets that oversee competition, to focus on the difficulties that these institutions pose to the judicial control. In this regard, three ideas were explored: on the one hand, the nature of independent regulatory agencies; on the other hand, the understanding of the doctrine of the separation of powers, and finally, permeating the previous two, the predominant legal mindset in the structuring in question. Thus, this article intends to show how these three ideas have been raised in three different scenarios (the United States, the European Union, and Spain) and, how they have circulated through various legal systems.

This paper analyzes the recent changes in Public Law and, in particular, Administrative Law, which have recently been spurred by the need to tackle the economic crisis of the period 2008-2015. These changes have consolidated a new «public regulation activity» or «regulatory activity of the Administration» that encompasses and systematizes a redefinition of the new role of the Public Administration and its relations with society in general, and citizens in particular.

Currently, Colombia is negotiating its membership to the OECD. To achieve its accession, Colombia shall, among other things, adopt a regulatory policy. This article aims to introduce the main axes of this policy in order to identify opportunities and challenges for its future implementation. The biggest opportunity will be its contribution to the constitutional and democratic state, but in order to take advantage of this, some challenges will need to be addressed first. The main challenge will be to formulate this policy taking into account a broad notion of regulation (Prosser, 2010). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Since the 1990s, several countries in Latin America liberalized and privatized the public utilities business. As a consequence, there was a transit from the Entrepreneur State to the Regulatory State, the latter being traditionally understood as a model of regulation for competition, with a mayor concern only on economic objectives. Notwithstanding, the socioeconomic reality of Latin American countries, in particular Colombia, presented the fact that competition cannot be the only priority, and that regulation of the public utilities business must also achieve social objectives. Public purposes, understood as economic and social objectives, are the cornerstone of State intervention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
