Abstract

The increasing concern about the study of curriculum policies seems to be related with the last changes in the government and management of different national educational systems. This process, is suggested, enlights the curriculum as a problem of public policy. This paper offers some reflexions about curriculum policies in Argentina during the past fifteen years focusing in two issues particularly relevant in this national case. First are analysed local problems that emerged when curriculum policy is taken as a policy about educational content and its distribution. Secondly some features of decision-making processes in this period are considered. Related to these topics the configuration of pedagogical field and the influence of academic and technical groups are associated to the generation and development of curriculum policies. Even though these three aspects are substantively linked, in this article are only exposed as notes that do not constitute yet an integrated view.
