Sumario:This article intends to analyze the educational policies organized by the liberal governments in Colombia between 1930 and 1946, articulated to the Latin American conjuncture in which it was advocated for the industrialization of its nations. For this purpose, the measures that aspired to the renewal of the national educational system are discussed, facing this continental trend, in its ideological, political, economic and social aspects, in order to identify some of its main effects and results in the areas of Normalistic, Primary, Middle, Technical and Industrial education. From the Historical Research method and the analysis of Primary Sources supported in Reports of Ministers of Education, of Directors of Public Instruction, of Educational Laws and Censuses of the time, it is shown that the resulting balance was not totally consistent with the speeches and purposes that were proclaimed, thus revealing important contradictions with the modernizing policies that were introduced, given the precarious financial support they received from the central government as a whole.
