ALARCON MENESES, Luis. Educate Peasants and Train Citizens in Colombia during the Liberal Republic. Investig. desarro. [online]. 2010, vol.18, n.2, pp.296-313. ISSN 0121-3261.

In spite of the diverse vicissitudes confronted by the Colombian governments in principles of the century XX, these tried to generate a modernization process that included so much the city as the rural world and which necessarily happened to give continuity to the process of formation of citizen initiated in the XIX century. They applied a series of actions and educative programs directed to the rural population and with which they were tried to foment new agricultural practices, to generate new habits social and a citizen culture that allowed them to leave the ostracism in which was great part of the Colombian population. But this type of actions had to face the weakness of the State to carry out the policies of educative modernization, as well as to the local influence that the tradition even presents/displays in imaginary of the society the farmer, and to the strong opposition and rejection of the great proprietors, politicians and the church that saw in those actions a challenge that put into danger the control and power exerted on the rural population.
