Resumen
REYES SANTOS, Marcos S.. Educational decentralization in Baja California: the new political and institutional context of educational action and some empirical evidence. Nueva antropol [online]. 2003, vol.19, n.62, pp.99-120. ISSN 0185-0636.
This article discusses the impact of the process of educational decentralization since 1992 in the new political and institutional context of the State of Baja California. The discussion centers on the vicissitudes of the process. Firstly, as a general context, the objectives of educational decentralization are discussed. Secondly, to identify the principal contemporary conflicts and tensions in the process of centralization-decentralization of the State of Baja California, the Mexican historical experience of educational decentralization is analysed. Preliminary findings contribute empirical evidence to the national debate about the effects of educational decentralization. Finally, the author tries to answer the following questions: What are the ultimate objectives of decentralization? Who promotes or impedes the process? And what are the new political and institutional arrangements which decentralization causes at the local level?
