Abstract
La educación como derecho posee un papel relevante en la agenda pública de los Estados latinoamericanos, pero, a pesar de su alto reconocimiento normativo, la efectividad de este derecho es baja. En este estudio se incluye técnicas cualitativas para analizar los alcances del contenido del derecho a la educación en función del principio de igualdad. También se usan técnicas cuantitativas para el análisis de estadísticas educativas para dimensionar al derecho a la educación. Así, en primer lugar, se ofrece una aproximación conceptual al derecho a la educación a la luz del principio de igualdad ya que constituye una de las bases de los derechos humanos. En segundo lugar, se realiza un análisis fáctico del ejercicio del derecho a la educación mediante el estudio de indicadores estadísticos educativos que permita contrastar cuan efectivos igualitaria es la distribución de oportunidades educativas en la región. En tercer lugar, en lo que concierne a los resultados, se analizan las desigualdades entre los países, así como entre los niveles primario y secundario de educación. En la discusión y conclusiones se plantean cuestiones problemáticas de la efectividad del derecho a la educación a la luz de diversos indicadores y, para completar el análisis en el plano fáctico, se incorporan algunas de las consecuencias que ha dejado la pandemia del COVID-19 que parecen haber exacerbado desigualdades estructurales.
Education as a right plays a significant role in the public agenda of Latin American countries, but despite its high normative recognition, the effectiveness of this right is low. This study includes qualitative techniques to analyze the scope of the right to education in terms of the principle of equality. Quantitative techniques are also used to analyze educational statistics in order to measure the right to education. Firstly, a conceptual approach to the right to education is presented in light of the principle of equality, as it constitutes one of the foundations of human rights. Secondly, a factual analysis of the exercise of the right to education is carried out by studying educational statistical indicators that allow us to compare how effective the distribution of educational opportunities is in the region. Thirdly, with regard to results, inequalities between countries and between primary and secondary education levels are analyzed. The discussion and conclusions raise problematic issues regarding the effectiveness of the right to education in light of various indicators. To complete the factual analysis, some of the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, which appear to have exacerbated structural inequalities, are also included.
