The Theoretical and Methodological Framework of Intergovernmental Relations and the Process of Territorial Decentralization in Cuba as an Ongoing Process

The State bodies are articulated through relationships that pass through legal platforms as contributors to the fulfillment of the State's purposes. At the municipal level, the analysis of these relationships becomes important in decentralized and autonomous environments, makes transparent essential principles of State organization and functioning and harmonizes the society's interests, based on the principle of legality. In this sense, this work addresses the issue on the basis of the impact that the theoretical and methodological content of the intergovernmental relations can have on the improvement of government performance in direct connection with the constitutional novelties and how, from the ongoing territorial decentralization process, new relational corridors with the municipalities can be strengthened and enabled in the country. The purpose of the analyzes is not to delve into the institution under study, nor to characterize them in a specific context, they are carried out on the basis of particularities of the Cuban constitutional design, with an exploratory-transforming purpose, as a reference framework that also contributes to the knowledge and debate about a different legal and constitutional reality.
