Reforma educativa neoliberalismo financiamiento de la educación. Using the argument that educational systems in Latin American are inefficient, political organizations and international financial institutions promoted reforms based on free market principles to modernize education in the region. Chile was used as a laboratory for these reforms, which were then applied to other Latin American countries. This paper analyzes the argument that educational quality is improved through competition—used as a strategy to privatize the educational system—by transferring its financing from public to private sources, to the detriment of the national system of education. Finally, this paper examines the modernization process and the failure of the free market model of the Mexican system of education. Con el argumento de la ineficiencia de los sistemas educativos de Latinoamérica, organizaciones políticas y de financiamiento internacional promovieron reformas para modernizar la educación en esta región, con la lógica del libre mercado. Chile fue el laboratorio de las reformas que posteriormente se generalizaron al resto de los países. En este artículo se analiza el argumento de la mejoría de la calidad educativa mediante la competencia, como una estrategia para privatizar la educación, con el traslado del financiamiento público al privado, en detrimento de los sistemas educativos nacionales. Finalmente, se presenta la modernización y el fracaso del sistema educativo mexicano organizado desde el modelo del libre mercado.
