Resumo: This research examines information laws in Mexico, Chile and Colombia, and contrasts them with an ideal regulatory model based on some recommendations of the OAS Model Law. The analysis focuses on the comparison of the institutional designs from five dimensions: 1) characteristics of the system of access to information; 2) the obligors; 3) restricted regime of exceptions; 4) guarantee of the right or judicial; and 5) institutional body guarantor of the law. The thesis is that the right to information has greater assurance for exercise when the existence of specific legislation, to incorporate fundamental principles of the regime of access to information, combined with the existence of a specific body (with budgetary, operational and decision-making autonomy), in charge of promoting and guaranteeing that right, which generates incentives for broader use by users and a greater guarantee of the right in case of refusal.

El análisis compara los diseños institucionales a partir de cinco dimensiones: 1) características del régimen de acceso a la información; 2) los sujetos obligados; 3) régimen restringido de excepciones; 4) garantía del derecho o vía judicial; y 5) organismo garante del derecho. La tesis es que el derecho a la información presenta mayor garantía para su ejercicio cuando se contempla la existencia de una legislación específica, que incorpore principios fundamentales del régimen de acceso a la información, combinada con la existencia de un organismo específico (con autonomía presupuestaria, operativa y de decisión), encargado de promover y garantizar dicho derecho, lo cual, genera incentivos para una mayor utilización de los usuarios y una mayor garantía del derecho en caso de denegación.UFRGS2016-04-29info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionCualitativaCualitativaapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/debates/article/view/6262910.22456/1982-5269.62629Revista Debates; Vol. 10 Núm. 1 (2016): As novas democracias latino-americanas e a política comparada; 111-140Revista Debates; v. 10 n. 1 (2016): As novas democracias latino-americanas e a política comparada; 111-1401982-52692236-479Xreponame:Revista Debatesinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSspahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/debates/article/view/62629/37270Fernández de Lara Gaitán, Alfredo Edmundoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-08-29T14:06:04Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/62629Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/debatesPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/debates/oai1982-52692236-479Xopendoar:2017-08-29T14:06:04Revista Debates - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false
