Resumen

This article analyzes the Community Councils of President Uribe under the theoretical framework of intergovernmental relations and relational strategic approach of the State. From the analysis of 55 of the 306 Community Councils, the article concludes that these instruments were an integral part of the transition from the munici pal decentralizing stage and the new momentum of presidential interdependence. This new categorization suggests leaving behind an understanding of decentralization in terms of autonomy and separation, defending the need to read it also in terms of administrative and political interdependence, just as it is done in contemporary analyzes of federalism.
