    What determines the outcomes of public procurement arbitration?
    (Taylor & Francis, 2022-11-23)
    The strengths and weaknesses of arbitration compared to litigation, as a system for solving procurement disputes between governments and their private counterparts has been a subject of debate among scholars. A particularly sensitive topic relates to the impartiality standards of each system and the determinants of its outcomes. Using a unique database of national arbitration resolutions we analyze the determinants of awards in procurement disputes related to public works. Estimating a cross-section model, we find evidence in favor of party capability theory and the influence of institutional factors in arbitration outcomes, like amendments to procurement law or the characteristics of the organization in charge of administering these processes. As well, we find indirect evidence that suggests that adverse outcomes for government entities are related with the lack of individual incentives of officials to settle with private contractors, and the presence of presumably undue influence among private contractors and arbitrators.

    The Expiration Regime in the Sanctioning Area of the State Procurement Supervisory Body: An Analysis of the Applicability of Expiration in the Sanctioning Procedure Regulated in the State Procurement Law of Peru
    (Universidad Nacional del Litoral, 2023-07-01)
    The objective of this investigation is to analyze the reasons why the State Procurement Supervisory Body (OSCE) excludes expiration from being applied to sanctioning procedures that are conducted in the field of public procurement. For this, the foundations, principles and regulation of the common regime enshrined in the Single Ordered Text of the General Administrative Procedure Law will be reviewed to define whether or not expiration can operate in sanctioning administrative areas regulated by special legislation.

    When electoral reforms backfire: reassessing reelection's impact on corruption
    (Springer Science+Business Media, 2026-01-01)
    This article evaluates the effect of prohibiting immediate reelection of subnational authorities in Peru on incentives for engaging in corruption through public procurement and investment expenditure. Using quantitative indicators derived from public contracting and investment expenditure data and applying interrupted time series models with fixed effects. Additionally, we conduct a placebo test, and sensitivity analysis across different reform timings, the study finds evidence suggesting that the reelection ban increased corruption risks at the subnational level. Specifically, the results show an increase in the percentage of projects with cost overruns and the proportion of expenditures executed through contracts below the supervision threshold of the State Contracting Supervisory Body (OSCE). These findings support predictions from the electoral accountability model, which argues that the possibility of reelection incentivizes politicians to align their preferences with those of citizens and refrain from rentseeking behavior. Overall, this study highlights the importance of considering not only electoral incentives in designing anti-corruption policies but also broader institutional and organizational reforms.
