Concession, from the Latin concessio, is a concept related to the verb concede (give, consent, allow, endorse). The term is used when retreating in an attitude or decision made.
For example: “I am going to make a concession: you can sleep here tonight, but tomorrow you have to go out to look for a roof”, “I am asking you for a concession: let me make this trip and, on the way back, I dedicate myself fully to the study “, ” I am not going to make any concessions since it has taken me a lot to get to this place. “
This concept also refers to one of the Rhetorical Figures whose purpose is to offer a disguised argument; that is, using a phrase that must be contextualized in order to be understood, since its true meaning is the opposite of what is believed at first glance.
Poets often use it to give greater credibility to their arguments. This figure uses irony and the picaresque to gain significance and for the reader to understand it, it is necessary to analyze it carefully in order to discover the hidden message that the author wanted to put.
Administrative concession
Finally, an administrative concession is known as the means created by modern States to establish relationships with different institutions in order to offer the people a series of activities or the exploitation of certain State resources to individuals, in order for them to be in charge of organize, maintain and develop.
It is usually a good alternative for these times of crisis in which municipalities do not have the economic and technological conditions to exploit these spaces. In this relationship, the institutions or private companies undertake to carry out the work safely and pay the State for said loan.
According to specialists, it is one of the best alternatives to promote national wealth and direct economic resources to effective development plans.
According to DigoPaul, there are many types of concessions. They can be authorization (an agreement of a judicial nature through which a person assumes the power to exercise a certain function whose purpose is to have an effect on the civil community), permission (an authorization that gives authority to a competent party to do a certain thing) and license (an administrative authorization through which the State offers the possibility to a person to develop a certain activity, after verifying the invulnerability of its facilities and ensuring that said activity will not have harmful consequences for community).
It is necessary then to point out that:
* A concession is the permission given to make use of a right to exploit services or goods for a certain time. The concession can be granted by one company to another or by the Government to a private firm.
In this sense, the concession can be the permission to market or manage products in a certain territory: “I have the concession to distribute NBA products in this city”, “I am trying to get a concession to sell foreign brand clothing”, “A man will be put on trial for marketing Disney creations without concession. “
* The concession is, on the other hand, the legal business through which the State assigns to a company or individual powers for the use of a property in the public domain or for the exploitation of a public service under certain clauses: “The Spanish company has obtained the concession of the city’s roads and highways for the next twenty years ”, “ The president threatened to annul the concession if the company does not lower the rates ”.
Finally, it is worth mentioning that to carry out any of them, a contract is required, which clearly specifies the right of the person to exercise their profession or develop their activity in a certain place.
