Subray\u00f3 que el nuevo libro del profesor Cohen surge de tres motivaciones principales: compartir lecciones de su carrera, redefinir la forma en que consideramos la infraestructura en un mundo post-COVID y promover la infraestructura como una herramienta para abordar las desigualdades estructurales que la pandemia y movimientos como Black Lives Matter pusieron de manifiesto. El presidente Towers mencion\u00f3 que, alineado con la misi\u00f3n de The New School de conectar la investigaci\u00f3n acad\u00e9mica con los desaf\u00edos sociales contempor\u00e1neos, el trabajo del profesor Cohen aboga por una reconceptualizaci\u00f3n de la infraestructura m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de la ingenier\u00eda, destacando que el crecimiento econ\u00f3mico es una condici\u00f3n necesaria pero insuficiente para que los pa\u00edses logren la justicia social o la sostenibilidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"535\" src=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7149-mikesbook2024sep-1024x535.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17898\" srcset=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7149-mikesbook2024sep-1024x535.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7149-mikesbook2024sep-980x512.jpg 980w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7149-mikesbook2024sep-480x251.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tras esta introducci\u00f3n, el profesor Michael Cohen comenz\u00f3 sus palabras compartiendo su motivaci\u00f3n para escribir el libro: evaluar la acci\u00f3n p\u00fablica. Se centr\u00f3 en su incursi\u00f3n en el mundo de la infraestructura, con el objetivo de replantear la manera en que la concebimos, no solo como proyectos de construcci\u00f3n para el crecimiento econ\u00f3mico, sino como procesos profundamente impactantes que pueden perpetuar la desigualdad o fomentar un cambio social real. Bas\u00e1ndose en sus d\u00e9cadas de experiencia en el Banco Mundial, describi\u00f3 una experiencia espec\u00edfica en Senegal, donde lo que inicialmente parec\u00eda un retroceso en el desarrollo, finalmente trajo beneficios duraderos para la comunidad, instando a la audiencia a considerar los impactos a largo plazo m\u00e1s all\u00e1 de las ganancias econ\u00f3micas inmediatas. Junto con otras experiencias mencionadas en su intervenci\u00f3n, enfatiz\u00f3 que la infraestructura debe dise\u00f1arse con las personas en su n\u00facleo y valorando el conocimiento local, enfoc\u00e1ndose no solo en el crecimiento, sino en qui\u00e9nes se benefician realmente. Advirti\u00f3 que, sin un cambio en las prioridades, la infraestructura p\u00fablica podr\u00eda seguir ignorando a las comunidades que m\u00e1s la necesitan. Por esta raz\u00f3n, es necesario valorar proyectos que aborden la desigualdad, que sean accesibles y sostenibles, y que realmente sirvan al p\u00fablico, en lugar de depender de la rentabilidad como principal medida de \u00e9xito. El profesor Cohen desea inspirar un enfoque m\u00e1s justo para el desarrollo a trav\u00e9s de sus reflexiones, donde la infraestructura se convierta en una herramienta para la equidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"702\" src=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7207-mikesbook2024sep-1024x702.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7207-mikesbook2024sep-1024x702.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7207-mikesbook2024sep-980x671.jpg 980w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7207-mikesbook2024sep-480x329.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El primer ponente del panel de discusi\u00f3n fue Aromar Revi, quien destac\u00f3 el papel cr\u00edtico de la infraestructura para abordar la desigualdad urbana, especialmente en econom\u00edas emergentes como India, pero enfatiz\u00f3 que la infraestructura por s\u00ed sola no puede resolver estos problemas. Sostuvo que, aunque la infraestructura es fundamental, debe ir acompa\u00f1ada de servicios integrales como atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica, educaci\u00f3n, alimentos y agua limpia para ser efectiva. Revi subray\u00f3 c\u00f3mo los desaf\u00edos urbanos, como la desigualdad, deben entenderse no solo desde una perspectiva econ\u00f3mica, sino tambi\u00e9n desde el g\u00e9nero, la casta y la etnia. Reflexion\u00f3 sobre la infraestructura y el desarrollo urbano en India, se\u00f1alando c\u00f3mo la inversi\u00f3n en servicios en lugar de solo infraestructura puede reducir la desigualdad. Subray\u00f3 la importancia de empoderar a las comunidades, citando los recientes proyectos a gran escala de la India. Tambi\u00e9n se discutieron los desaf\u00edos del financiamiento para los pobres, el acceso a la tierra y la pobreza urbana, vinculando la infraestructura con la reducci\u00f3n de la pobreza si las voces comunitarias gu\u00edan la planificaci\u00f3n. Finalmente, mencion\u00f3 que, a pesar de su potencial econ\u00f3mico, las \u00e1reas urbanas a menudo centralizan la pobreza y los riesgos ecol\u00f3gicos, lo que resalta la necesidad de una planificaci\u00f3n ecol\u00f3gica e infraestructura regionales para sostener el desarrollo urbano.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7213-mikesbook2024sep-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17902\" srcset=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7213-mikesbook2024sep-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7213-mikesbook2024sep-980x735.jpg 980w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7213-mikesbook2024sep-480x360.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El segundo panelista, el profesor Nidhi Srinivas, explor\u00f3 el enfoque del profesor Cohen sobre la infraestructura como un proceso social que moldea y puede reducir la desigualdad a trav\u00e9s de la justicia social. Examin\u00f3 el papel del Banco Mundial, haciendo referencia al argumento de Robert Hunter Wade sobre los cambios ideol\u00f3gicos en el Banco en la d\u00e9cada de 1980. Cuestion\u00f3 c\u00f3mo la posici\u00f3n de Cohen reflejaba su compromiso con la justicia social frente a la ideolog\u00eda t\u00edpica del Banco Mundial. Srinivas tambi\u00e9n abord\u00f3 la evoluci\u00f3n del papel del estado en el desarrollo urbano y el impacto de la relaci\u00f3n del Banco Mundial con las empresas paraestatales. La conversaci\u00f3n luego trat\u00f3 sobre el potencial de la infraestructura para contribuir a la desigualdad, principalmente cuando se enmarca como propiedad privada. Cuestion\u00f3 si la infraestructura urbana deber\u00eda seguir empoderando a las personas en situaci\u00f3n de pobreza como consumidores o si deber\u00eda seguir modelos alternativos, como el decrecimiento. Finalmente, cit\u00f3 las an\u00e9cdotas del profesor Cohen contadas en el libro sobre la participaci\u00f3n de los abor\u00edgenes en los proyectos de infraestructura australianos y un encuentro con el pol\u00edtico indio M.G. Ramachandran para contrastar el potencial de la infraestructura para la cohesi\u00f3n social con la realidad de los sistemas pol\u00edticos que marginan a los pobres, dejando a la audiencia con im\u00e1genes contrastantes de posibilidades pol\u00edticas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"607\" src=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7267-mikesbook2024sep-1024x607.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17904\" srcset=\"https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7267-mikesbook2024sep-1024x607.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7267-mikesbook2024sep-980x581.jpg 980w, https:\/\/observatorylatinamerica.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/img-7267-mikesbook2024sep-480x284.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La profesora Sakiko Fukuda-Parr, \u00faltima panelista, afirm\u00f3 que el libro era tanto un an\u00e1lisis profundo de la pol\u00edtica urbana como una narrativa personal del viaje del profesor Cohen dentro del Banco Mundial. Bas\u00e1ndose en su propia experiencia como ex miembro del personal del Banco Mundial, elogi\u00f3 la capacidad rara del libro para captar la evoluci\u00f3n de las pol\u00edticas del Banco Mundial sobre el desarrollo urbano, modeladas no solo por el liderazgo, sino tambi\u00e9n por el trabajo de los bur\u00f3cratas de nivel medio. La profesora Fukuda-Parr elogi\u00f3 a Cohen por desafiar la sabidur\u00eda convencional y abogar por nuevas ideas, destacando el rigor intelectual y el compromiso de los profesionales del desarrollo. La panelista reflexion\u00f3 sobre el cambio en el pensamiento sobre el desarrollo, de soluciones tecnocr\u00e1ticas a enfoques m\u00e1s complejos y multisectoriales, al tiempo que reconoci\u00f3 las limitaciones de los profesionales dentro de las restricciones institucionales. Luego critic\u00f3 la naturaleza impulsada por donantes de la ayuda al desarrollo, argumentando que no deber\u00eda centrarse \u00fanicamente en el crecimiento econ\u00f3mico, y elogi\u00f3 a Cohen por presentar una visi\u00f3n equilibrada sobre c\u00f3mo los profesionales a\u00fan pueden generar cambios significativos a pesar de los desaf\u00edos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
