| Summary: | This article examines the Latin American public policy programs post-Washington Consensus, named as the Caracas and Bogotá models. Thesemodels are constructed in an Weberian ideal sense, that is, placing special attention to the historical characteristics of the historical cases that serve as reference (Colombia and Venezuela in the first decade of the XXI century). Although it should be mentioned that it is not possible to recognize all these historical phenomena in the ideal model definition. The elements or variablesthat are taken into account for comparison are: democratic institutionalization, social justice, the relationships between State and market and the integration to the world. Bringing these elements into consideration, makes possible to place the different national cases (Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Ecuador and Bolivia) in relation to the models proposed.
