CADENA-ROA, Jorge  and  PUGA ESPINOSA, Cristina. Criterios para la evaluación del desempeño de las asociaciones. Rev. mex. cienc. polít. soc [online]. 2005, vol.47, n.193, pp.13-40. ISSN 0185-1918.

This article presents the results of the first search of clear, operating and measurable criteria that allow the objective and comparative consideration of the development of the different associations. In order to achieve this, it begins with the identification of some meaningful variables that depend on the capacity of the associations to successfully face the different challenges in the search of the fulfilment of its objectives and the satisfactions of its requests (relationship with authorities, formulation of politics, creations of nets, fulfilment of goals, innovation and change). In the quest of these criteria and variables they explore the contributions and findings that come from the collective action sociology and the sociology of the organizations. In both theoretical literatures we can identify some useful concepts and models of analysis that allow an analytical approach to the diverse forms of association and its practices.

Keywords : criterios; asociaciones; relaciones con autoridad; creación de redes.
