| Summary: | This article deals with the most relevant events concerning Higher Education in Spain and Colombia nowadays. Despite their differences, both countries share common issues in a globalized world controlled by the market and the knowledge economy. The consequences of neoliberal economic policies created by supranational organizations such as the OECD and the European Commis sion and implemented in these countries have been disastrous for their public services and educational systems. In this context, we propose a number of critical observations about the current state of Higher Education in both countries, the causes that have contributed to weakening their higher education systems and the role played by the public policies in reproducing social inequalities and triggering the pauperization of the society. |
