Abstract
This study deals withthe social innovation that is occurring in the city of Bogotá
(Colombia) following the recognition given by the Constitutional Court of
Colombiaof the work of independent recyclers to assist in the provision of waste
collection services and recovery of recyclable materials. The Court's judgment is one
important step towards the recovery of the regulatory capacity of the state for the
provision of public services, the implementation of which corresponds to the
executive power (mayors). Application of the Court´s provisions required the
creation of a new model of garbage collection focused on public companies, a move
of Bogotá´s mayoraway from traditional neoliberal policies that provoked strong
social, political, and business reactions. This paper describes and analyzes the
process, its achievements and the growing political, human, and business difficulties,
as well as its political implications.
