Abstract

The purpose of this article is to expose Governance and Governance as Key Elements for the Formulation of Public Policies with a Vision from Latin America, for this purpose, an approach is made within a theoretical- conceptual framework referred to the following categories: public policies, governability and governance to facilitate their understanding. Likewise, the necessary elements for these categories are also identified. On the other hand, the approach to analyze public policies as a framework for action by the State is presented, where governability and governance are assumed as the capacity of the government to manage the public agenda and formulate and implement public policies with participation of different actors. Finally, this article shows an analysis of public policies based on governability and governance with a vision from Latin America, this is done with the intention of interpreting and understanding the way in which governments respond to public conflicts according to the degree of governability. and governance that exists and is concluded with a proposal for a new model to govern.
