Summary |
Recent international efforts at poverty alleviation place an emphasis on increasing government spending in education. However, the link between government spending and increased levels of education is not direct. Even if spending is completely efficient and well targeted, it is not evident that more spending on education would by itself lead to an increase in educational levels. Bolivia is a prime example of a country that has had a stable macroeconomic environment over the past 15 years. It has adopted important structural measures to liberalize its economy, improve public sector management, reform public administration, and more recently, increase its social spending, particularly on education. Nevertheless, despite some progress, social indicators continue to lag with respect to other Latin American countries, and poverty and inequality remain widespread |
