Abstract
The influence of the United States in its diverse manifestations has a long history in Latin America. While research and academic studies over the course of recent decades have highlighted the strong influence of the United States in the international economic and political arenas, few have alluded to its hegemonic but subtle influence on higher education in the region. The practices of evaluating and accrediting institutions and educational programs around the world as a means for society to hold them to account and ensure compliance with certain quality parameters have predominated throughout the last three decades. The foregoing would give reason to conclude that the United States is the nation with the most experience in the evaluation and accreditation of educational institutions and programs. Recently, this hegemony has taken another form, with the direct accreditation, by American accreditors, of Latin American higher education institutions and programs.
La presencia estadounidense en sus diversas manifestaciones tiene una historia profunda en el caso de la región latinoamericana. Resultado de investigaciones y trabajos académicos a lo largo de las últimas décadas ha puesto en evidencia la fuerte presencia de los Estados Unidos en los ámbitos económico y político; sin embargo, poco se ha aludido a la influencia hegemónica pero sutil que mantiene en la región en la educación superior. Durante las tres últimas décadas han persistido los planteamientos de evaluación y acreditación de instituciones y programas educativos alrededor del mundo como una forma de rendir cuentas a la sociedad y cumplir con ciertos parámetros de calidad. Lo anterior daría pie a considerar que la nación con más experiencia en evaluación y acreditación de instituciones y programas educativos era y es Estados Unidos. Actualmente esta hegemonía ha tomado otra forma, la acreditación directa estadounidense a instituciones y programas educativos superiores latinoamericanos.
