| description | This paper shows how inequity and inequality in Colombian education are negatively correlated with several indices of poverty and of performance in tests like Saber 11 (High-School exit). Inequity and inequality are associated in a spatial way with the poorest regions that cast more Yes-votes in favor of Peace Plebiscite, regions where there has been little or no State presence during decades but now have some hope of being included in the regional development path in the current post-conflict policy. This paper argues how programs like Ser Pilo Paga favor private education and increase inequity. Education as a common good implies that the right not only to “receive some education”, but “to be well educated” or “to have a quality education” implies a combination of market and non-market goods and services that support the realization of this right to education. |

Este documento muestra cómo la desigualdad y la inequidad en la educación colombiana se correlacionan negativamente con distintos indicadores de pobreza y de desempeño en pruebas como las Saber 11 al final del bachillerato. Espacialmente, dicha inequidad y desigualdad están asociadas a las regiones que votaron a favor del Sí en el plebiscito por la paz; es decir, las regiones en donde la presencia del Estado ha sido casi nula, que parecen ser las que tienen más esperanza de que el posconflicto los incluya como región en la senda de desarrollo. El artículo argumenta cómo el programa Ser Pilo Paga fortalece la educación privada y aumenta la inequidad. La educación, entendida como un bien común, no solo como “recibir alguna educación” sino como un derecho a “estar bien educado”, a “tener una educación de calidad”, implica combinar todos los bienes de mercado y los de no-mercado de tal manera que permitan que ese derecho a la educación sea una realidad. 2018-07-02 2024-10-10T02:35:07Z 2024-10-10T02:35:07Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501 http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85 https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/509 10.54104/papeles.v10n19.509 https://repositorio.uan.edu.co/handle/123456789/10884 spa https://revistas.uan.edu.co/index.php/papeles/article/view/509/436 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 http://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2 application/pdf UNIVERSIDAD ANTONIO NARIÑO Papeles; Vol. 10 No. 19 (2018); 26-39 Papeles; Vol. 10 Núm. 19 (2018); 26-39 Papeles; v. 10 n. 19 (2018); 26-39 2346-0911 0123-0670 10.54104/papeles.v10n19 |
