Abstract

In Latin America, public policies were promoted to encourage students to attend university and to create new institutions. However, the resources used for these purposes were scarce, as were those used to promote the integration of students from the most vulnerable social sectors. This research will carry out a comparative study and analysis of the evolution of government policies on education and education for citizenship in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Peru based on the analysis of two variables: (1) public policies for higher education for citizenship and (2) the reception and impact of these policies on public and private universities and their impact on the education system.
