Abstract

Tras la crisis de la deuda externa, diversos países de América Latina emprendieron amplias reformas económicas orquestadas por organismos multilaterales como el FMI, las cuales se alineaban con las pautas que hacían parte del Consenso de Washington. Sin embargo, tras más de 25 anos de aplicación del citado Consenso, son contradictorios muchos de los resultados alcanzados en materia económica y social en la región, por lo que en este documento, además de revisar algunas falencias en su concepción, se consideran ciertas recomendaciones de ajuste, especialmente en el área tributaria. En general, se establece que la falta de coherencia interna del modelo y lo endeble de ciertas hipótesis en que se fundamentó, como la presunta ineficiencia del Estado, limitaron el cumplimiento de sus objetivos.
