- Abstract
The aim of this article is to analyze the influence of neoliberalism over the consolidation of the model of the university in Colombia, from a project of a professionalizing university to a model focused on the formation of human capital. In order to achieve said purpose, the Sistema de Educación Superior required the creation of three institutions: ICETEX, ASCUN and Fondo Universitario Nacional. The policies of the university brought together the concerns of the different assessments carried out by international communities, in which it was determined that science and technology would be the fundamental pillars of the university project. The present study was conducted from the point of view of the social history of education with a decolonial perspective, with the aim of analyzing the main threads of global power, embodied in educational practices. The above allowed for an understanding of how the influence of neoliberalism over the new conception of the university led to the transformation of the social and economic model, in order for it to become a way of being and of producing subjectivities.
