Abstract

GIL, I-Juca-Pirama Camargo. Municipal management of teaching in Chile. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2003, n.22, pp.115-137. ISSN 0104-4060.

This text is fruit of my Master’s degree Dissertation on the theme. It presents a short theoretical discussion about education decentralization, mainly in Latin America, and soon afterwards it analyzes the Chilean experience. This was considered, during decades, by international organisms as World Bank, as an example to Latin America and other places of the world. Based on data regarding registrations, numbers of teachers for student, quality of teaching, financing, among other information, I consider that there are more doubts than certainties on the positive effects of decentralization improved by Chile.

Keywords : Decentralization; Education Reforms.
