Spanish term

orden nacional vs. orden territorial

Spanish to English Social Sciences Government / Politics
"3. Las competencias en las ramas del poder público y en el orden nacional y territorial son desiguales."
"7. Enorme distancia entre los avances logrados en gestión del empleo público en el orden nacional con respecto del orden territorial. "

In Colombia these appear to be names for distinguishing levels of government, can someone confirm what they correspond to please - I'm assuming 'federal' vs 'state' government? I can't find a reliable translation anywhere.

Many thanks!

Agree. The phrase "national and regional levels" seems more suited to this kind of internal reference than 'front' to me.
FVS (X) Jun 17, 2011:
Personally I would combine the two answers and say

at national and regional level.

on the national and regional front

I would say "orden" here denotes this sense of the word (from the Oxford Spanish):

3 (lenguaje periodístico) (ámbito): en el orden internacional on the international front; en este orden de cosas in this respect; en otro orden de cosas meanwhile

I would also say that "territorial" refers to all of the regional divisions of the country. Also from the Oxford:

territorio
2 (división administrativa) region, territory

agree neilmac : Nice option :)

at national and territorial levl

Or "in the national and territorial scope/s" (although I feel that "scope" is overused in this type of text, el least in Europe)

As they have use "territorial", I'd keep it that way, since it's perfectly good English, and administrative nomenclatures and demarcations are very location-specific.

I'd certainly think twice about translating it as "federal" unless it is "federal" in the original. Sometimes ours is not to reason why...
Peer comment(s):

agree Simon Bruni : probably a bit more "normal" than my option

agree Muriel Vasconcellos : Absolutely. BTW, I would add 'the' after 'at'.
