Government through National Department of Planning, Ministry of Treasury and Public Credit and Ministry of Interior and Justice has undertaken actions against this process, in first instance presenring and urging the passing of a series of faws for obstructing advancement of decentralization in front of competencies of terrirorial entities; and, on the second place promoting a restrictive fiscal policy as to generare administrative and political instability for directors of regional entiries.

At the inside of Narional Congress there is no política consensus in order to consolidate a real territorial ordering for contributing to surpass maladjustments of political administrative organization, conflict of tenure and usage of land, urban agglomerations produced by movements generated by diversification and increase of internal conflict, among others.

In this condition of Colombian territorial ordering art, the necessity is urgent for all the society components to persist in constructing a real future, incorporating national and sub-nacional territorialicy in their public policies, as to avoid that their configuration just obey the purposes of economical logics of neo-liberal model, with an unrestricted support from executive power on duty.
