摘要：This article analyzes the latest reforms in the Latin American educational systems, suggesting that
although educational policies in the region have always been shaped by international influences, in
the 1980s and 1990s the internationalization of educational policy in the continent has been
intensified, making education policy in its countries more similar at the level of official rhetoric.
However, it is also suggested that similarities in the principles guiding the education reform in the
region do not necessarily imply that actual policies are the same in different countries. Indeed, the
policy formulation process is affected by different political and institutional cultures. As an
example of international influences, the proposals of UNESCO, World Bank, and OECD in the
1980s and 1990s are analyzed, while the changes in curricular regulation in Argentina, Chile and
Brazil are taken as an example of the translation of these influences into policies.
