Abstract

Este art�culo analiza la evoluci�n de la educaci�n primaria y secundaria en Colombia durante el siglo XX desde una perspectiva de largo plazo. Se estudian las principales pol�ticas educativas as� como los cambios institucionales y organizacionales que ocurrieron. Se analiza la financiaci�n de la educaci�n, el comportamiento de las principales variables educativas y se examina la evoluci�n de calidad de la educaci�n en el pa�s. Se encontr� que la expansi�n de la educaci�n, tanto primaria como secundaria a lo largo de la primera mitad el siglo XX fue muy lenta. Las transformaciones educativas s�lo empezaron a ocurrir en la d�cada de los cincuenta, cuando se present� un r�pido y sostenido crecimiento econ�mico y un cambio signif icativo en la estructura econ�mica y demogr�fica del pa�s. Desde 1950 y hasta mediados de los setenta, los indicadores educativos crecieron a un ritmo nunca antes visto. Sin embargo, la expansi�n de los indicadores educativos se freno desde mediados de los setenta y hasta principios de los ochenta, cuando se dio una nueva expansi�n en los mismos que se mantuvo hasta finales de siglo. A pesar de estos grandes avances durante la segunda mitad del siglo XX, al finalizar los noventa el sector educativo Colombiano segu�a presentando bajos niveles de cobertura, eficiencia y calidad as� como vaguedad en las competencias y obligaciones en t�rminos administrativos y financieros de los diferentes niveles gubernamentales.
