description According to the role that political parties play in the democratic system, the way they are financed becomes a matter of main relevance. Nowadays, it is impossible to imagine political organizations that could fulfill their means without the availability of financial and economic resources. The technological revolution and the cultural changes have deeply modified how politics are done and determined a way to communicate it, affecting political parties? economies. Even though every country has regulated the matter in various ways, they all have common features, which allowed elaboration of a basic diagram with the main characteristics of each one of them. We know three types of financing: public, private and the mix of both; depending on the origin of the funds, if they come from the State, from private contributions or both. Argentina, which during decades showed a social and legal context quite permissive compared to developed democracies such as the United States or the United Kingdom, adopted the mixed financing system. Since the 80?s and along with the consolidation of the institutional system, the demand of the citizens for more transparency while handling parties? funds grew. However, it wasn?t until 2001 and because of the crisis and lack of trust, that a specific regulation on this matter was dictated. The dispositions contained in the political parties Act. 23.298 where insufficient to control the parties? finances on the limits of expenses and the funds restrictions. Thus, the concern was to find new forms of auditing that were efficient, and that could ensure the transparency and equity in the distribution and use of the funds. In this way, on June 12th of 2001, the Act 25.600 was passed and remained effective until 2007 when the Act 26.215 was enacted, which was substantially modified in 2009 by the reform introduced in the Act 26.571. The argentine financing regime is complete, as it foresees the assignment of funds for the institutional development of the parties and the campaigns. It establishes limits to the expenses and contributions, and it provides new control mechanisms and penalties. An interesting improvement was the imposition to submit a pre-campaign report from the parties, tending to an informed decision of the electors, in addition to the final report with supporting documentation. Nevertheless, there is still a long way to go and so we need that those who participate in politics assume the commitment, accepting and promoting the rules of transparency. Otherwise, the aim will not be accomplished.

Buenos Aires, Argentina Argentina Lázaro, Alejandra 2015 La cuestión del financiamiento de los partidos políticos es de suma importancia, acorde a las funciones que estos cumplen dentro del sistema democrático. En la actualidad resulta impensable que las organizaciones políticas puedan cumplir sus fines sin disponer de recursos económicos y financieros toda vez que la revolución tecnológica y los cambios culturales han modificado la forma de hacer política y su comunicación de manera determinante, repercutiendo en las economías partidarias. Si bien cada país ha regulado esta materia de manera diversa, todas presentan rasgos comunes que han permitido elaborar un esquema básico con las características más relevantes de cada uno. Se conocen así tres tipos de financiamiento: público, privado o mixto, según si los fondos provienen del estado, de aportes privados o de ambos. La República Argentina, que evidenció durante décadas un contexto social y jurídico bastante permisivo en relación a democracias más avanzadas como Estados Unidos o el Reino Unido, ha adoptado un sistema de financiamiento mixto. A partir de la década de 1980, y a medida que el sistema institucional se iba consolidando, la demanda de la ciudadanía por una mayor transparencia en el manejo de los fondos partidarios fue aumentando. Sin embargo, fue recién en el año 2001 como parte de la respuesta a la crisis de confianza alcanzada que se dictó una ley específica sobre el financiamiento partidario. Las disposiciones contables contenidas en la ley de partidos políticos Nº23.298 resultaban insuficientes a la hora de controlar sus finanzas, no solo respecto al límite de sus gastos sino también en los aportes recibidos. El objetivo era encontrar formas superadoras de fiscalización que resultaran eficaces, además de garantizar transparencia y equidad en la asignación y destino de los fondos. De este modo, el 12 de junio de 2001 se sancionó la ley 25.600 que rigió hasta el año 2007, cuando se dictó la ley Nº26.215 que fuera a su vez modificada de manera sustancial en 2009 a través de la reforma introducida por la ley 26.571. El régimen de financiamiento argentino es completo, prevé la asignación de fondos para el desenvolvimiento institucional de los partidos y para las campañas. Establece límites de gastos, de aportes, nuevos mecanismos de control y sanciones. Un avance fue imponer a los partidos la presentación de un informe previo de campaña, propendiendo al voto informado del elector, además del informe final documentado. No obstante, queda camino por recorrer y para ello se necesita que quienes actúan en la política asuman el compromiso de aceptar y promover las reglas de la transparencia, porque de otro modo el objetivo no se podrá alcanzar. application/pdf 2314-0186 (impreso) 2314-0194 (en l?nea) http://www.derecho.uba.ar/publicaciones/pensar-en-derecho/revistas/7/el-financiamiento-de-la-politica-en-la-republica-argentina.pdf Financiamiento partidario Transparencia Equidad Límites Mecanismos de control Compromiso Partidos políticos Campaña electoral Financing Transparency Limits Equality Control Comimitment spa Universidad de Buenos Aires.
