    El comercio como plataforma de la política exterior colombiana en la administración de Juan Manuel Santos
    (Universidad de los Andes, Bogota Colombia, 2012-01-01) Vargas-Alzate, L.F.; Sosa, S.; Rodriguez-Rios, J.D.
    This paper analyzes Colombia's foreign policy during the first year of the Santos administration from a liberal perspective. It explores the relation between the country's international commerce and its diplomatic actions by using statistical data and official and academic reports about the contemporary international relations. The authors argue that the commercial liberalism is a useful perspective for the analysis of Colombia's current foreign policy, especially by using the concept of the capitalist peace because the authors have found in commerce a basic platform for the country's international relations.

    On the Influence of Interpersonal Relations on Business Practices in Latin America: A Comparison with the Chinese Guanxi and the Arab Wasta
    (Wiley-Liss Inc., 2015-07-01) Velez-Calle, A.; Robledo-Ardila, C.; Rodriguez-Rios, J.D.
    The connection between interpersonal relationships and business practices is currently an object of study in the field of international business. The authors have identified a significant body of research literature characterizing this phenomenon in China, where it is denominated as guanxi, as well as a recent interest of the academy in studying the Arab wasta (i.e., clout or influence). The authors argue that a similar phenomenon occurs in Latin America and identify patterns similar to those of guanxi and wasta in a cultural artifact called compadrazgo. The article offers insight for managers and individuals interested in doing business in Latin America. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
