ResumenEl sistema chileno de ejecución de penas contempla penas sustitutivas destinadas a benefciar a quienes se encuentren privados de libertad, a efectos de contribuir a su reinserción social. La ley 20.603 vino a reformar el régimen general con el objetivo de disminuir el nivel de hacinamiento, en particular después de la traumática experiencia sufrida en el incendio de la Cárcel de San Miguel en diciembre de 2010. El artículo reconstruye el debate legislativo a efectos de comprender las diferentes posturas manifestadas en él, al mismo tiempo que se presentan y explican las fuentes comparadas que inspiraron la reforma. La evaluación de la misma por la opinión pública y ciudadana emerge como una preocupación latente que pondrá a prueba la efcacia del sistema.Palabras clave: funciones de la pena, medidas alternativas, reinserción social, sistema penitenciario.ResumoO sistema chileno de execução de penas contempla medidas alternativas destinadas a benefciar aqueles que se encontram privados de sua liberdade, a fm de contribuir na sua reinserção social.

ABSTRACT This paper empirically examines the interactive effect of competition intensity and competition type on the use of customer satisfaction measures in executives' annual bonus contracts. Specifically, we predict a stronger association between competition intensity in an industry and the use of customer satisfaction measures in executives' annual bonus contracts when the competition is non-price-based than when the competition is price-based. Using hand-collected data from Standard & Poor's (S&P) 1500 firms' disclosures of the use of customer satisfaction measures in executive bonus contracts in 2006 and 2010 proxy statements, we find results consistent with our prediction. Our results are robust to alternative measures of competition type and competition intensity. We also find similar results when we use the weight on customer satisfaction measures in executive bonus contracts as the dependent variable. Our study extends the literature on the effect of competition on the design of managerial incentives by distinguishing between competition intensity and competition type, and providing the first large-sample empirical evidence on the joint effect of these two dimensions of competition on the incentive use of an important nonfinancial performance measure. Data Availability: Data used in this study are obtained from publicly available sources.

Since 2013, the European cities have been encouraged to develop local Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs) according to the specific procedure that was launched by the Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport (DG Move) and updated in 2019. One of the most critical steps in this 12-step procedure is the assessment—with specific criteria—of all the alternative measures and infrastructure, which will be optimally combined, in order to better satisfy the problems and the achieve the vision of each area. The aim of the current work is to present the development and implementation of a methodological framework based on the use of multicriteria analysis. The framework targets the capturing of opinions of the relevant local experts in order to evaluate alternative sustainable mobility measures, and also prioritize them using the Sustainable Mobility Efficiency Index (SMEI).
